SAIC Inc. began work on supply management of chemicals, packaged petroleum, oils and lubricants for the Defense Department under a contract valued at as much as $6.2 billion after a protest of the award was denied. SAIC said yesterday that it was informed Aug. 15 that work may continue following a ruling on the challenge by the Government Accountability Office.

The order was awarded May 2, and a protest was lodged by PWC Logistics Services Inc., a Kuwait-based global logistics company, GAO attorney Michael Golden said today.

SAIC, a military contractor specializing in computer services, has had the contract with the Defense Supply Center in Richmond, Va., for five years, with one five-year option period. The order allows the Defense Logistics Agency to spend as much as $6.2 billion, depending on the supplies required, San Diego-based SAIC said.

Hmmm, better go check the stock price and see if it’s moving back up at all.

Bring on $23/share. . .
