That final RFP will award of up to five design contracts in June 2021, setting the next stage in the competition.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\">\u201cAs we continue to progress through the first phase of our five-phased approach for the OMFV program, communication, inclusive feedback and innovative thinking from industry remains key,\u201d Maj. Gen. Brian Cummings, the Army\u2019s program executive officer for ground combat systems, said in a statement. \u201cWe are looking forward to receiving feedback and learning from industry what\u2019s in the realm of the possible as we continue to develop this truly transformational vehicle for our Soldiers.\u201d<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\">Added Brig. Gen. Ross Coffman, director of the Next Generation Combat Vehicles Cross-Functional Team: \u201cAccurately defining the desired set of capabilities without over-constraining the design is critically important.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\">\u201cThe Army is committed to open communication with industry to ensure the characteristics and eventual requirements of the OMFV are informed by technological advances.\u201d<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\">The focus on gathering industry feedback should not be a surprise, given the recent history of the program. When the OMFV program was conceived, the Army<a href=\"https:\/\/www.defensenews.com\/land\/2019\/10\/01\/pencils-down-bids-are-in-for-armys-bradley-fighting-vehicle-replacement\/\"> planned to hold a prototyping competition<\/a>, selecting two winning teams to build prototypes with a downselect to one at the end of an evaluation period.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\">But in October, the Army ended up with <a href=\"https:\/\/www.defensenews.com\/land\/2019\/10\/04\/lynx-41-disqualified-from-bradley-replacement-competition\/\">only one bidder in the OMFV competition<\/a> \u2014 General Dynamics Land Systems \u2014 after other competitors dropped out, citing requirements and schedule concerns.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\">As a result, the Army in January announced it would be <a href=\"https:\/\/www.defensenews.com\/land\/2020\/01\/16\/army-takes-step-back-on-bradley-replacement-prototyping-effort\/\">relaunching the program<\/a> to ensure more competition going forward \u2014 a decision that led to service leaders <a href=\"https:\/\/www.defensenews.com\/2020\/03\/16\/us-army-battles-skepticism-in-congress-after-bradley-replacement-failure\/\">taking heat from Congress<\/a> during testimony in March. OMFV is the first large acquisition effort to come out of Army Futures Command.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\">The draft RFP, posted on a <a href=\"https:\/\/beta.sam.gov\/opp\/e1a23010f59540f08888165bf90b3e9d\/view?keywords=omfv&#038;sort=-relevance&#038;index=&#038;is_active=true&#038;page=1\">government contracting website<\/a> Friday, drives home the point by stating: \u201cTo permit industry design freedom and promote innovation, the Army has avoided quantifying or prescribing critical levels of performance wherever possible.\u201d<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\">\u201cWe do not want to box industry into a solution,\u201d Cummings said. \u201cWe want to incentivize industry as they lean forward and think creatively to bring the Army innovative technologies and solutions necessary to achieve our vision \u2014 both in terms of the ability to integrate newer technology we are seeing today and leaving space for future growth on the OMFV platform.\u201d<\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"<p>The optionally manned fighting vehicle reboot
