HUNTSVILLE, Ala., July 13, 2009 – Taos Industries, a subsidiary of Agility Defense & Government Services, and its partners DynCorp International and CH2M HILL have been awarded a task order for logistics support for the Afghanistan-South Area of Responsibility (AOR) under the U.S. Army’s LOGCAP IV contract.
