The Secure Transportable Maintenance System (STMS) program, managed by the Air Force Nuclear Weapons Center, is an ACAT III acquisition aimed at replacing the Weapons Maintenance Truck for USAFE/NATO. The project involves the design, development, and delivery of one production representative prototype and nine production units. These systems must be capable of operating in Transport, Maintenance, and Attack modes, ensuring compatibility with Protective Aircraft Structures and incorporating high-security features, including an integrated safe or vault to prevent unauthorized access to weapons under maintenance. The procurement is conducted as a full and open competition open to both small and large businesses, utilizing a Fixed-Price-Incentive-Firm contract type. The government employs a best-value source selection process where technical capability is the most important evaluation factor, followed by cost/price and past performance. With an estimated budget of approximately 13 million dollars and a delivery deadline of June 30, 2014, the program emphasizes a strict schedule and rigorous systems engineering management to ensure the successful deployment of these secure maintenance trailers in European theaters.
