Procure Spare Parts, Engineering, Programmatic, Technical and Logistical Support for the Logistics Vehicle System Replacment (LVSR) Family of Vehicles (FoV)

THIS SYNOPSIS IS FOR INFORMATIONAL PURPOSES ONLY. Program Executive Officer, Land Systems Marine Corps, (PEO LS) Medium and Heavy Tactical Vehicles (MHTV) intends to enter into sole source negotiations and subsequently award an Indefinite Delivery Indefinite Quantity (IDIQ) contract to Oshkosh Defense LLC, 2307 Oregon Street, Oshkosh, WI 54902-7062 (CAGE 75Q65) . This effort is estimated for award in the third quarter of Fiscal Year 2018 with an approximate period of performance of a 12-month base period with four 12-month option years. The anticipated IDIQ contract is to procure spare parts, engineering, programmatic, technical and logistical support for the Logistics Vehicle System Replacement (LVSR) Family of Vehicles (FoV). These services to be performed by Oshkosh are identified as follows: - Not to exceed 10,000 engineering/modeling and simulation hours over five (5) years to support live fire and performance testing required by the Government as a result of any agreed upon changes to the LVSR cab structure. - Up to four (4) technicians per year over five (5) years to remove and re-install the cab and its components during pre and post warranty restoration efforts. - Repair of vehicle damage, not covered by warranty, that would prevent reconditioning of the cab or affect safe operation of the vehicle. - Support the installation of approved engineering changes that would be beneficial to the Government while the vehicle is out-of-service, such as new, improved door locks, emergency egress windows, etc. The Government has determined that Oshkosh is the only commercial company capable of performing these support services because the Government is currently unable to provide the technical data necessary to support competition of the live fire test events, performance and durability testing, and access to Oshkosh's engineering/model and required simulation support. Therefore, PEO-LS cannot provide the technical data in order to foster a competitive procurement. THIS NOTICE IS NOT A REQUEST FOR COMPETITIVE PROPOSALS.
