About this program
The Light Armored Vehicle (LAV) Army program is a Major Defense Acquisition Program focused on the procurement, maintenance, and enhancement of light armored vehicles for U.S. military use. The program encompasses various LAV variants including the LAV-25, LAV-L, LAV-CC (Command and Control), LAV-M, and LAV-AT (Anti-Tank), demonstrating a comprehensive approach to meeting diverse tactical requirements. Based on the contract history, the program has invested significantly in vehicle procurement, weight reduction initiatives, ballistic protection improvements, and mobility enhancements.
The federal contract awards associated with this program range from small component purchases of less than $10,000 to major vehicle procurement contracts exceeding $195 million, with performance periods typically spanning 1-3 years. Major contractors include BAE Systems Land & Armaments and General Dynamics Land Systems, particularly for vehicle production and systems integration. The U.S. Army Contracting Command, specifically TACOM Life Cycle Management Command, serves as the primary contracting authority. Contract types vary between Firm Fixed Price and Cost Plus Fixed Fee, with a mix of unrestricted and small business set-aside awards. Notable procurement categories include complete vehicles, protection kits, engineering services, and spare components. Sterling Heights, Michigan and York, Pennsylvania appear as significant places of performance, likely due to the presence of major defense contractor facilities in these locations.
