Agency/Office:  Army Contracting Command – Detroit Arsenal (ACC-DTA)Description:The Government intends to issue a Request for Prototype Proposals (RPP) for the TRM M107 Pump Retail Capability Upgrade under the Ground Vehicle Systems (GVS) Other Transaction Agreement (OTA), W15QKN-17-9-1025. The GVS OTA was entered into between the Army Contracting Command (ACC) and the National Advanced Mobility Consortium (NAMC) on 26 September 2017, in support of Ground Vehicle System related Research and Development prototype projects. The Government will utilize the GVS OTA to award this effort.The intent of this project is to develop a Retail Capability Engineering Change Proposal to upgrade the M107 fleet from 20 Gallons per Minute (GPM) to up to 50 GPM and perform abbreviated testing with logistics updates (i.e. manuals updated, provisioning data, training materials, etc.) The Government anticipates awarding up to two (2) agreements and receiving one prototype per awardee consisting of improved

pumping capabilities. The anticipated Period of Performance (PoP) for the prototype project effort is 24 months.Follow-on Production:The Government anticipates pursuing a Follow-on Production effort under the authority of 10.U.S.C. 2371b(f), which states that, upon a determination that the competitively awarded prototype project has been successfully completed, the prototype project may result in the award of a follow-on production contract or transaction without the use of competitive procedures. The anticipated follow-on production to upgrade the current 800 M107 TRMs is estimated at $18,039,000.00. The anticipated PoP for the follow-on production effort will be five (5) years plus three (3) option years.The Government point of contact for this effort is Lynn Byrne, lynn.m.byrne.civ@army.milNOTE:This Special Notice is for informational purposes only. A prototype project will not be awarded in response to this announcement. The purpose of this announcement is to provide industry advanced notification of the Government’s intent to release an RPP to the NAMC membership.
