BCT Ground Combat Vehicle

Abstract

A Request for Proposal (RFP) was released by the Government in November 2010 and up to three Technology Development (TD) contracts were intended to be awarded 4QFY2011. An Acquisition Decision Memorandum (ADM) was signed 17 August 2011 and 2 TD contracts were awarded 18 August 2011. A protest was filed with the Government Accountability Office challenging the Department of the Army's rejection of a third proposal. The protest resulted in a stop work contract modification and 100 day program schedule delay. On 5 December 2011, the GAO denied the protest and TD work resumed via contract modification. The fiscal impacts of the protest delay and selection of only two TD contractors are: 1) larger than planned FY2011 carry-over dollars, and 2) adjustments to funding requirements for FY2012 and beyond, which are reflected above. The FY2011 carry-over means that contract work discussed in the below FY2011 Descriptions will reflect efforts through approximately February, 2012.
