Pre-Solicitation for JLTV FSR Support

The United States Marine Corps intends to award a sole-source cost-plus-fixed-fee contract to Oshkosh Defense to provide field service representatives supporting the Joint Light Tactical Vehicle (JLTV) program. As the original equipment manufacturer of the JLTV, currently in full-rate production, Oshkosh possesses the required expertise to assist Marine Expeditionary Unit mechanics and operators with troubleshooting, diagnostics, supply support, training, and maintenance actions. The effort is expected to be awarded in fiscal year 2020 under a base year and two option periods of 12 months each. No additional information is available and the deadline for questions was July 27, 2020.

This pre-solicitation notice does not specify a set-aside designation or evaluation criteria, as it is being pursued as a sole-source award under the statutory authority that only one responsible source is available and no other supplies or services will satisfy agency requirements. Oshkosh Defense is identified as the potential incumbent and only contractor able to meet the Marine Corps' needs due to its expertise as the original manufacturer of the JLTVs currently in full-rate production for the agency. The effort is expected to have a period of performance consisting of one base year and two option years to provide field service representatives supporting the Marine Corps' JLTV fleet.
