3) Within emails dated 13 April 2018 and 6 May 2018 Oshkosh Defense, LLC (Oshkosh) asserted to the Government that Oshkosh is willing to revise the existing contract to increase available options based on the pricing defined within Attachment 0060 Option Pricing Matrix of the subject contract for vehicles, kits, Interim Contractor Support (ICS) and Total Package Fielding (TPF).
