Its primary objective is to rapidly procure innovative commercial products, services, and non-developmental items to enhance the development, integration, and sustainment of ground vehicle systems.

This CSO is active through 2028, with the government reserving the right to extend the authority or add new Areas of Interest (AoI) as needed. Key Areas of Interest include the FALCONS prototype effort for long-range sensors with funding ceilings up to 30 million dollars, the TIGER Readiness and Hackathon initiatives focused on supply chain resilience for the Abrams Main Battle Tank engine, and the procurement of Mobile Camouflage Systems and Light Tactical Trailers.

To be eligible for award, vendors must possess a Unique Entity ID, be registered in the System for Award Management, and be determined responsible by the Contracting Officer. Evaluation is based on technical acceptability and fair and reasonable pricing, with a strong preference for solutions that offer a credible path to prototype delivery rather than conceptual studies.
