About this opportunity

The U.S. Army Tank-Automotive and Armaments Command (TACOM) Life Cycle Management Command is seeking Field Sustainment Support Services (FSS) for the Abrams Family of Vehicles through a competitive procurement. The contract will cover comprehensive support services including Field Service Representatives, Vehicle Maintenance, Modification Work Orders, Fielding and De-processing, New Equipment Training, and Program Management. Evaluation criteria will prioritize Experience as the most important factor, followed by Cost/Price, with Small Business Participation being the least significant consideration. Potential offerors must submit responses by May 30, 2025, with questions permitted via email to Contracting Specialist Jaclyn Beach before 4:00 pm EST on that date. The government will review submissions and potentially use the responses to further define requirements for a future solicitation, with an anticipated Request for Proposal (RFP) release in Summer 2025 and proposal submissions expected in Fall 2025.

The procurement will be conducted as a full and open competition with no specific set-aside designations, allowing both small and large businesses to compete. Other Than Small Business offerors will be required to submit a Small Business Subcontracting Plan. Services will be delivered simultaneously in both Continental United States (CONUS) and Outside the Continental United States (OCONUS) locations, with a focus on evaluating recent experience within the last five years. The government emphasized that past performance will not be part of the current evaluation, and offerors should demonstrate simultaneous mission capabilities across different locations. While specific award values were not disclosed, the contract is anticipated to be a single award with an expected contract award in Spring 2026. Submissions must adhere to strict formatting requirements, including being no more than 20 pages, using 12-point Arial font, and including a comprehensive title page with company information.
