This document contains a Request for Information from the U.S. Army regarding potential acquisition strategies for gunnery training systems. The Army is seeking recommendations on contracting vehicles and approaches to achieve efficiencies across programs for Abrams, Bradley, Stryker, Mobile Protected Firepower, and Next Generation Combat Vehicle training systems from fiscal years 2020 through 2027. Suggestions are requested on contract types including indefinite-delivery/indefinite-quantity contracts and cost-plus arrangements. Responses are due no later than 15 days after release and should not exceed 10 pages excluding the cover sheet. The Army intends to obligate between $100 million and $500 million over the life of the proposed contract.
