CSC’s Beavercreek office is handling the Expeditionary Combat Support System project through a separate contract to integrate various new computer systems across the Air Force system.
The multi-year project supports about 500 jobs in the Dayton area. Its cost has soared to $5.2 billion from its initial estimate of $3 billion and its expected completion date has slipped to 2016 from the earlier projected date of 2012, the U.S. Government Accountability Office reported in September 2010.
It ranked among the more expensive cost overruns for similar projects across the armed services, said the GAO, the auditing and investigative arm of Congress.
