Mobile Tactical Cannon (MTC) Request for Prototype Proposal

The United States Army Contracting Command – Detroit Arsenal (ACC‑DTA) is issuing a Request for Prototype Proposal (RPP) to obtain mature, production‑ready Mobile Tactical Cannon (MTC) systems for prototype manufacturing, network integration, 155 mm ammunition compatibility, safety and characterization testing, and subsequent issue to an Army unit for Soldier Evaluation. Proposals must be submitted under a Fixed‑Price Other Transaction Authority (OTA) agreement and demonstrate a wheeled‑chassis platform with a caliber ratio between 49 and 56 that can fire 155 mm class artillery. Offerors must provide an Eligibility Volume (≤10 pages) confirming chassis and caliber compliance, a Technical Volume summarizing the approach, a Substantiating Technical Volume with detailed data, and Appendix C (MS Word, ≤6 MB). All deliverables must adhere to applicable standards (e.g., ASME Y14.100) and include a detailed delivery schedule for the 18 prototype units required by the Performance Period Agreement (PPA). If the offeror is a National Defense Contractor (NDC) or non‑profit research institution, or a traditional defense contractor that relies on a significant NDC/non‑profit subcontractor, Condition A applies; the offeror must complete a contribution table describing the subcontractor’s substantial participation. The Government will evaluate proposals on two technical and two non‑technical factors, with delivery schedule and data‑rights terms receiving particular focus. Ratings will be assigned to delivery schedule, technical data/computer software and data rights, and unit cost (acceptable vs. marginal). AI tools will be employed to assist in proposal analysis and compliance checks.
