Cubic to Support Fort Lewis Battle Command Training Center

SAN DIEGO, CA - Cubic Corporation (AMEX: CUB) will help operate and maintain the I Corps and Fort Lewis Battle Command Training Center (BCTC).

Employees from Cubic’s Training and Education Division, part of the company’s Mission Support Business Unit, will deliver a full range of live, virtual and constructive simulation support, including planning, designing and building data bases, configuring facilities, and training soldiers to operate simulations.

The BCTC offers digital training to soldiers of all ranks, with network connectivity to military outposts throughout the Middle East and Asia-Pacific region. Launched in 2005, the BCTC is a model of how to most effectively and efficiently train units and soldiers deploying to war. It is recognized by the U.S. Army Chief of Staff and the I Corps Commander as an outstanding model for future BCTCs.

Cubic has supported the BCTC and its predecessor, the Battle Simulation Center, for 12 years, since 1995. The current award reflects the collaboration that Cubic and SAIC have enjoyed since teaming together under the U.S. Army Forces Command (FORSCOM) Operations, Planning, Training and Resource Support Services (OPTARSS) contract. The Cubic/SAIC team operates under the motto that a lesson learned in Iraq today is a training event tomorrow. The team supports soldiers with the latest tactics, techniques, and procedures captured through lessons learned.
