About this opportunity

The Department of the Army has issued a Special Notice for the Self-Propelled Howitzer-Modernization (SPH-M) Evaluation, a comprehensive testing and assessment opportunity for military armored vehicle components. This notice represents a follow-up to previous draft notices, specifically addressing industry feedback received regarding the proposed evaluation process. The opportunity is categorized under Military Armored Vehicle, Tank, and Tank Component Manufacturing (NAICS 336992) and focuses on testing equipment and weapons materials. The Special Notice was posted on February 21, 2025, with responses due by March 7, 2025, and involves detailed technical assessments of self-propelled howitzer systems at Yuma Proving Ground. The government has released multiple supporting documents detailing test requirements, contractor responsibilities, and evaluation criteria.

Contractors interested in this opportunity must be prepared to provide a self-propelled howitzer vehicle and accompanying artillery ammunition as part of their proposal submission. The evaluation will be conducted on a Firm-Fixed-Price contract basis, with potential for multiple contract awards for different proposed solutions. Key requirements include submitting proposals via CD-ROM/DVD, supporting remote Test Readiness Reviews, and meeting specific timeline requirements for system delivery and testing. Contractors will be responsible for all personnel, tools, spares, hardware, and ammunition required during testing, with a maximum of 20 personnel allowed onsite at Yuma Proving Ground. The government has clarified that the Buy American Act does not apply, and the action is FAR-based, with evaluation criteria focusing on existing system capabilities rather than developing new features. Small business participation requirements remain in effect, and vendors must adhere to the specified technical and procedural guidelines outlined in the government's response documents.
