Request for Information (RFI) Joint Armored Ground Mobility System (JAGMS) Classification Code: 23 – Ground effects vehicles, motor vehicles, trailers, & cycles NAICS Code: 336992 – Military Armored Vehicle, Tank, and Tank Component Manufacturing FSC Code: 2355 Combat, Assault, and Tactical Vehicles, Wheeled Description: Heavily Armored C-130 Transportable Vehicle This is a United States Special Operations Command (USSOCOM) Request for Information (RFI) concerning a nine (9) to eleven (11) passenger armored ground tactical vehicle capable of being Internally Air Transportable (IAT) in a C-130. The purpose of this RFI is to determine the types, suitability, and maturity levels of armored vehicles available in the marketplace. Respondents should respond to all parts of this RFI. Respondents shall provide feedback regarding the feasibility and risk levels of meeting the requirements outlined below with an existing mature vehicle, any driving costs or schedule factors, and/or any additional information that would clarify current Industry capabilities. The Government is primarily focused on understanding the marketplace for commercial and non-developmental items and/or commercial items easily modified. The Key Performance Parameters for JAGMS are as follows: JAGMS shall have the capacity to transport nine (9) to eleven (11) operators. JAGMS shall be C-130 transportable without the need for modification. JAGMS shall provide blast and ballistic protection similar to Mine Resistant Ambush Protected (MRAP) vehicles. Responses to this RFI should be in the form of a White Paper and should include the company name and address; and a Point of Contact with name, phone number and email address. Feedback is defined as information regarding the feasibility of meeting the requirements with existing and/or proposed vehicles and data regarding capability of existing or proposed vehicles. Request respondents identify the extent to which their current capabilities provide the following attributes for the JAGMS vehicle: a. Vehicle Model – b. Estimated Unit Cost – c. Maturity Level and expected 25-year supply chain support for main driveline components– d. Operator Capacity – e. Engine/Fuel Type – f. Prep Time for C-130 IAT Prep – g. Range – h. Horsepower/Torque – i. Transmission Type – j. Drive System – k. Length, Width, Height – l. Wheelbase(s) – m. Vehicle Curb Weight (VCW) – n. Gross Vehicle Weight (GVW) – o. Payload – p. Ground Clearance – q. Top Speed at GVW – r. Acceleration at GVW 0-30 MPH – s. C-130 Internal Air Transportability Certification – t. Maximum Longitudinal Grade Forward/Reverse – u. Maximum Side Slope Forward/Reverse – v. Level of Protection at C-130 Transport Configuration & Weight – w. Base Vehicle Armor & Survivability Levels for Ballistic & Blast – x. Underbody Protection – y. CROWS capability – z. Internal 360° situational awareness Request respondents identify: Validation on blast and ballistic protection. Validation of performance. Fielded quantities, and with whom. Production lead times. Responses should be submitted no later 01 May 2020. Responses shall be submitted to Mr. Paul Foxx at Paul.Foxx1@socom.mil. One-on-One Government technical meetings between respondents to this RFI may be scheduled after a vendor’s submission as determined by the Program Management Office (PMO). All efforts shall be made to protect proprietary information that is clearly marked in writing. Lessons learned by USSOCOM from these white papers may be broadly disseminated, but only within the Government. The respondent’s attention is directed to the fact that contractor personnel may review and provide support during review of submissions. Submission of documentation in response to the RFI constitutes approval to release documentation submission to Government Support Contractors. Responses from all industry sources are welcomed and encouraged. This market research is for informational purposes only. This request for information does not constitute a commitment, implied or otherwise, that a procurement action will be issued. This notice shall not be construed as a Request for Proposal (RFP) or as an obligation on the part of the Government. No entitlement to payment will arise as a result of the submission of contractor information. No other program information related to this request is available. Use of Information: All proprietary information contained in the submission shall be appropriately marked.
