About this program
The Light Armored Vehicle (LAV) Navy program is a Major Defense Acquisition Program (MDAP) managed through the Major Capability Acquisition pathway. The program encompasses the acquisition and sustainment of a family of light armored vehicles, including variants such as the LAV-25A2, LAV-AT (Anti-Tank), LAV-R (Recovery), and LAV-C2 (Command and Control). These vehicles serve multiple branches of service, with significant foreign military sales to partners including Saudi Arabia and Australia.
The contract awards from 2010-2015 show a diverse procurement portfolio ranging from complete vehicle systems ($193M+ for LAV Anti-Tank modernization) to component upgrades, spare parts, and support services. Typical contract durations span from 60 days for spare parts to 5-10 years for system technical support and modernization efforts. The Canadian Commercial Corporation appears as a primary contractor, often subcontracting to companies like General Dynamics Land Systems-Canada and Armatec Survivability Corporation. Contract types are predominantly Firm Fixed Price, with some Cost Plus Fixed Fee arrangements for engineering and support services. While most awards have no set-aside designation, some smaller purchases utilize 8(a) and Total Small Business set-asides. Key procurement areas include ballistic protection upgrades, electrical system modernization, communications equipment, and field service representative support, with individual contract values ranging from under $10,000 for software licenses to over $120M for major system acquisitions.
