Contrack is an international construction firm that was part of a jont venture working on rail and bridge construction in Iraq. Just last year it was awarded a $325M contract.
In December, the venture stopped working on the project due to the high security risks; the high cost of security made the work no longer profitable.
Contrack was looking for “other work” in Iraq but I did not see any more details.
The company’s website at www.contrack.com mentions the initial contract award, but it does not mention the work has stopped. A Google search of this subject will turn up Washington Post and other articles that cover this.
