Cubic Corporation of San Diego, CA announced on November 29 that its Cubic Global Defense (CGD) business division was awarded a contract worth more than $61 million from the U.S. Army Contracting Command to support rotational and pre-deployment training exercises at the U.S. Army’s Joint Readiness Training Center (JRTC). The awarded amount is for the combined one-year phase-in and base period with four additional option years. Cubic will perform work in Fort Polk, Louisiana with an estimated completion date of November 24, 2022.
