AI Contract Overview
The Department of Defense, through the Army Contracting Command - Warren, plans to issue a Request for Prototype Proposals (RPP 19-14) for the development of a Heavy Expanded Mobility Tactical Truck - Load Handling System (HEMTT-LHS) compatible water tank rack, known as the Hippo. This prototype project will be conducted under the Ground Vehicle Systems Other Transaction Agreement (GVS OTA) and aims to select up to three members of the National Advanced Mobility Consortium (NAMC) to deliver one prototype system each for government testing. The announcement serves as an advanced notification to NAMC members and industry, with no prototype awards made from this special notice itself. Participation requires NAMC membership, and a Virtual Industry Day was scheduled for June 26, 2019, to provide further information on the project. If the prototype phase is successfully completed, there is potential for a follow-on production contract, which may be awarded without competitive procedures, as permitted by law. The estimated follow-on production quantity is approximately 1,964 Hippo units. The RPP will be issued through the NAMC’s administrative agent, the National Center for Manufacturing Sciences (NCMS). Key contacts for this effort include agreements specialists at the U.S. Army TACOM office in Detroit Arsenal, Michigan. This initiative supports the enhancement of military heavy vehicle capabilities by integrating a specialized water tank rack system compatible with existing load handling platforms.
