Oshkosh keeps $3B FMTV contract

Following another review of competing proposals for the Family of Medium Tactical Vehicles (FMTV) program, the Army has decided to stand by its earlier decision to award the $3B contract to Oshkosh. BAE Systems (former incumbent) and Navistar had both filed protests late last year.

From DoD Buzz:

“We are very pleased the Army affirmed its original decision that Oshkosh Corporation’s FMTV bid clearly represents the best overall value for the Army, the taxpayers and the Warfighter,” said Robert G. Bohn, Oshkosh Corporation chairman and CEO in the press release. “We are delighted that the Army has yet again concluded that Oshkosh was the right choice. Our focus has always been on the Warfighter and making sure we deliver high-​​quality, high-​​performing vehicles on time.”
