DynCorp International LLC

 
Overview
Building on 60 years of innovation and trust.


DynCorp International is a multifaceted, global enterprise that provides innovative solutions to the diverse technology and professional services needs of government and commercial industry worldwide. While we are a highly successful provider of critical support to military and civilian government institutions, we also have important commercial business in aviation, infrastructure development, security, and logistics, including international projects to build and manage regional air facilities.


Our roots are in aviation. In 1951, our predecessor, Land-Air, Inc., implemented the first Contract Field Teams, by which we deployed teams of technicians to the field to maintain military aircraft. We have held the Contract Field Teams contract continuously since then, and currently maintain rotary and fixed-wing aircraft for all branches of the U.S. Armed Forces throughout the world, for foreign governments flying American aircraft, and for commercial aviation


In recent years, DynCorp International has broadened its reach in program management and security. To date, we have recruited, trained, and deployed more than 5,000 highly-qualified civilian peacekeepers and police trainers to 11 countries, including Haiti, Bosnia, Afghanistan, and Iraq, for the Department of State.


We provide major support to protect American diplomats and diplomatic facilities as well as key allied leaders in high-threat countries. We provide services to eradicate illicit narcotics crops and support drug-interdiction efforts in South America and Afghanistan. We are engaged in the removal and destruction of landmines and light weapons in Afghanistan. We have vast international experience and operate on all continents except Antarctica. Our business office in Dubai serves the Middle East region, where we have operated for some 30 years.


We provide logistics and contingency support to the United States military around the world. In the aftermath of Hurricane Katrina, we put that experience to work. In St. Bernard Parish, Louisiana, we provide vital temporary infrastructure to help keep the parish government and Sheriff’s Department functioning.
In the field of marine services, we provide crew management, engineering, and logistical support for range ships; manage maritime communications suites; and maintain large medium-speed roll-on roll-off (LMSR) vessels.


Our services to both governments and private industry are characterized by a great deal of technical and administrative innovation, including DynInsight, our Web-based enterprise information system, helps customers manage everything from supply chains, inventory, and work flow to internal communications and administrative support. Our conversion program for the venerable UH1/AH1 helicopter has re-created the world’s most successful rotary aircraft into one that flies higher, faster, and more efficiently. The thousands of Hueys in service around the world can now enter a new era of service to military, law enforcement, transport, and humanitarian-relief efforts.


DynCorp International has a highly efficient global recruiting network that can find skilled professionals and technicians worldwide. Currently, we have nearly 14,000 employees in more than 30 countries.

  • History
    A Brief History of DynCorp International

    DynCorp International LLC has its origins with two companies formed in 1946—Land-Air, Inc., and California Eastern Airways.

    Land-Air, Inc., which became the predecessor to DynCorp International's Maintenance and Technical Support Services (MTSS) Division, reached a major milestone in 1951, when it was awarded the first Contract Field Teams (CFT) contract by the Air Force Logistics Command (AFLC). Contract field teams provide mission support and depot-level repair to U.S. military aircraft and weapons systems worldwide. DynCorp International and its predecessors have provided services under the CFT program continuously since being awarded that first contract.

    Also in 1951, Land-Air, Inc. was acquired by California Eastern Airways, Inc. (later California Eastern Aviation, Inc.). In 1962, California Eastern Aviation, Inc., changed its name to Dynalectron Corporation, and in 1987, Dynalectron changed its name to DynCorp.

    In 1998, DynCorp established DynCorp Technical Services, Inc. (DTS), and transferred its existing aerospace and international-division business—including contracts later held by DynCorp International—to the new DTS subsidiary.

    In December 2000, DynCorp formed DynCorp International LLC, and transferred to it all of its international business. DynCorp Technical Services LLC continued to perform DynCorp’s domestic contracts.

    In March 2003, DynCorp and its subsidiaries were acquired by Computer Sciences Corporation (CSC). DynCorp remained the parent of its existing subsidiaries, including DTS and DynCorp International LLC, and CSC became their ultimate parent.

    In 2004, CSC made a strategic decision to divest itself of its non-core businesses, including security and aviation services. As part of that decision, CSC transferred its aviation services business segment into a separate CSC subsidiary, DTS Aviation Services. The U.S. Government approved the transfer of government prime contracts that were part of this business to DTS Aviation Services on September 30, 2004.

    On December 12, 2004, DynCorp and CSC entered into an agreement to sell DynCorp International LLC, including its subsidiaries Dyn Marine Services LLC and DTS Aviation Services LLC, to DI Acquisition Corp, an affiliate of Veritas Capital Management. The sale closed on February 11, 2005, and the purchaser was renamed DynCorp International Inc. DynCorp International Inc. is the corporate parent of DynCorp International LLC.
