- Description
- Background: The US Army is seeking a more mobile, lethal, and survivable 155mm system to replace its current fleet of towed howitzers. In 2019 the US Army approved the requirement to conduct a Shoot-off Evaluation of candidate systems in Fiscal Year 2021 in order to inform US Army future requirements. The requirement is for vendors to participate in a Shoot-Off Evaluation at Yuma Proving Ground, Arizona in FY2021. Information from the Shoot-off Evaluation will feed an Army Senior Leader (ASL) Decision Point concerning the future of the US Army mobile howitzer effort. Joint Program Executive Office Armaments and Ammunition (JPEO A&A) is the Office of Program Responsibility (OPR) for the Shoot-off Evaluation. The Contractor shall participate in the United States Government (USG) run 155mm Mobile Howitzer Shoot-off Evaluation. The Contractor shall make available and bear cost of the necessary test hardware to support the Shoot-off Evaluation testing. The Contractor is responsible for managing the transportation of their test hardware to and from Yuma Proving Ground. Test Hardware will be due at Yuma Proving Ground (YPG), AZ at the beginning of the USG assigned test window expected to be in 2nd Quarter FY21(January-March 2021). Test hardware will remain at YPG through the entire testing window. The USG will provide test ranges, crews to fire and drive systems, ammunition for testing, and common USG consumables such as fuel and Nitrogen. The Contractor shall have support personnel on site for the duration of the testing. Government Furnished Equipment: The USG recognizes the risk of US ammunition compatibility with foreign cannon systems, so the USG will provide a M776 Cannon Assembly, currently used on M777 Towed Howitzer and qualified with all US ammunition, to vendors who wish to utilize it in their Shoot-off Evaluation system. Providing the M776 Cannon as GFE is contingent upon the contractor having a viable integration concept for its use. Contracting Strategy: This procurement is unrestricted and will be competed utilizing Full and Open Competition. The United States Government anticipates multiple awards of Firm-Fixed-Price (FFP) contracts in support of this requirement. The Government will select for award proposals that are the most advantageous and represent the best value to the Government.
