SOURCES SOUGHT PROGRAM MANAGER LIGHT ARMORED VEHICLES SYSTEM TECHNICAL SUPPORT 1. Description: Program Manager Office Light Armored Vehicle (PMO LAV) is responsible for the total life cycle support for the Family of Light Armored Vehicles (FOLAV) and is located at the United States Army Tank-automotive and Armaments Command (TACOM) at the Detroit Arsenal in Warren, Michigan. PMO LAV seeks to identify sources capable of providing engineering and logistic support for the engineering development, prototyping and production of Hydraulic Lift Cylinder Assemblies used on the United States Marine Corps (USMC) FOLAV. These systems are currently fielded on the FOLAV with known obsolescence issues on the Crane Assembly. There is little or no technical information or data available besides the physical product. The scope would include analyzing the usage and physical properties of the existing components (National Stock Number (NSN) 2590-01-224-5802, Part Number (P/N) 10523619, Cylinder, Inner Boom; NSN 2590-01-223-5692, P/N 10523621, Cylinder, Outer Boom; NSN 2590-01-223-5693, P/N 10524623, Cylinder, Assembly; and NSN 2590-01-223-4016, P/N 10519459, Leveling-Support) and demonstrating that any new components meet the same requirements and capabilities as the fielded system. If service life, capability, reliability, or other requirements are affected, reasoning and solutions are to be presented to PMO LAV for final decisions. During the efforts, wherever possible, the technical data package shall be provided to PMO LAV for continued use and records management. The System Technical Support (STS) activities shall include the following STS categories: a. Systems Engineering (Including Reverse Engineering) b. Reliability Analysis c. Maintainability Support d. Prototype Hardware e. Test or Validation Analysis and Reports f. Technical Data Package (TDP) g. Logistics Products (Drawings and Engineering Data for Provisioning) h. Inherent and Direct Product Improvements i. System Assembly Build and Maintenance Instructions k. Diminishing Manufacturing Sources and Material Shortages (DMSMS) Reporting 2. Sources Sought Request.
