Mobile Tactical Cannon (MTC) Request for Prototype Proposal

The solicitation seeks proposals for a prototype vehicle system built on a wheeled chassis with a gun caliber between 49 and 56 calibers. Offerors must submit a Technical Volume (including substantiating documentation and multimedia) that details the system design review, architecture, modular open‑system approach (per the MOSA Implementation Guidebook FEB 2025), and digital/Model‑Based Systems Engineering tools. Required deliverables include conceptual, developmental, product, and commercial engineering design data, specifications, software documentation, special inspection equipment, tooling, packaging instructions, and quality‑assurance provisions, all conforming to applicable standards such as ASME Y14.100. The proposal must also contain an Eligibility Volume (≤10 pages) confirming chassis and caliber compliance, a Delivery Schedule evaluating risk for 18 prototype deliveries, and a data‑rights section that the Government will rate (Outstanding, Good, Acceptable, or Marginal). Submissions are limited to 6 MB per file (MS Word) with no page limit for most volumes, and the Government will employ AI tools to assist in compliance and evaluation. If the Offeror is a Traditional Defense Contractor, Condition A applies when a National Defense Contractor (NDC) or non‑profit research institution participates significantly as a subcontractor; the Offeror must complete a detailed table describing the subcontractor’s contribution to demonstrate statutory compliance. The Government will evaluate proposals on two technical and two non‑technical factors, with delivery schedule and data‑rights terms being key non‑technical criteria. Signatory authority, allowable cost treatment, and the use of AI in proposal analysis are also stipulated.
