Mobile Tactical Cannon (MTC) Request for Prototype Proposal

The solicitation requires Offerors to address Condition A when the prime is a Traditional Defense Contractor that will rely on a National Defense Contractor (NDC) or non‑profit research institution as a significant subcontractor, or when the Offeror itself is an NDC/non‑profit. In such cases the Offeror must complete a detailed table describing the substantial contributions of each qualifying NDC/non‑profit, providing sufficient technical detail to demonstrate “significant extent” participation. The proposal must include a System Design Review covering system summary, architecture, primary function traceability, legacy configuration changes, Modular Open Systems Approach (per MOSA Implementation Guidebook FEB 2025), and Digital/Model‑Based Systems Engineering (including tools used and availability of a working model). Required Technical Data Package (TDP) elements span conceptual through commercial engineering design data, special inspection equipment, tooling, specifications, software documentation, special packaging instructions, and quality assurance provisions, all conforming to applicable standards such as ASME Y14.100. Submissions must be in MS Word (single file or ZIP) not exceeding 6 MB, with no page limit for the Appendix C certifications, and an Eligibility Volume (≤10 pages) confirming a wheeled chassis, a caliber ratio of 49‑56, and capability to fire 155 mm class artillery ammunition. The Technical Volume must demonstrate a clear understanding of the prototype requirements, present a concise technical approach, and reference substantiating data in a separate Substantiating Technical Volume. The Government will rate data rights and delivery schedule as Acceptable, Good, or Marginal, and will employ AI tools to assist in proposal evaluation. The Cost Volume must include Milestone Pricing Appendices E, E(1), E(2) with pricing history for comparable items and adjusted costs where applicable, and must provide all information needed to verify proposed costs for each milestone schedule (A‑D, F). All contributions—cash or non‑cash—must be allowable, allocable, reasonable, and consistently accounted for. Signatory authority and compliance with the Request for Prototype Proposal (RPP) procedures are mandatory.
