About this opportunity
The Defense Logistics Agency Land and Maritime is seeking to procure hydraulic transmissions with NSN 2520-01-665-9743 for the Route Clearance Vehicle M1272 (Buffalo). The procurement involves a quantity of 9 units at 100% option, specifically designed to mount to the Buffalo engine and transfer power from the engine through the transmission, driveshaft, differential, and wheels to drive the vehicle forward and backward. The transmission kit includes multiple components: the primary transmission (NSN 2520-01-651-0199 restricted to Caterpillar CAGE 11083), a reusable shipping and storage container (NSN 8145-01-673-4345), and requires military preservation and packaging standards with destination FOB terms. The solicitation will include a DLAD reverse auction provision, allowing the contracting officer to determine whether to hold a reverse auction after solicitation closure, requiring contractors to register and complete online training at https://dla.procurexinc.com. The solicitation is expected to be released approximately July 28, 2025, with an approximate closing date of August 27, 2025, and actual dates will be available on SAM.gov.
This procurement does not utilize any set-aside designations and operates under the unrestricted competition framework. The notice identifies specific part numbers including 362-0711 and 57K8954 with corresponding CAGE codes 11083 and 19207, indicating potential involvement of Caterpillar as a manufacturer given the restriction noted for the transmission component. One variation of the procurement includes a First Article Test (FAT) requirement, suggesting quality validation protocols for new or modified manufacturing processes. The transmission's specialized design for the Buffalo vehicle platform makes it unique among commercially available transmissions, potentially limiting the competitive field to manufacturers with specific technical capabilities. No Technical Data Package (TDP) is available, though a Special Packaging Instruction (SPI) will be attached to the solicitation. The procurement follows standard military inspection and acceptance protocols with origin-based inspection and acceptance terms.

Power from the vehicle’s engine is transferred along a path through the transmission, driveshaft, differential, and wheels, which drive the vehicle forward and backwards. The transmission uses its series of gears to multiply the torque output of the engine and provide that energy via the driveshaft to the differential and axles. Without it, the power generated by the engine cannot be transferred to the wheels. This transmission has been specifically designed to mount to the Buffalo engine, which makes it unique among other commercially procurable transmissions.
