(NSI News Source Info) February 18, 2009:The U.S. Government Accountability Office (GAO) on Feb. 17 denied a protest - filed by Northrop Grumman-Oshkosh and Tex
tron-Boeing-SAIC - of the Army's Joint Light Tactical Vehicle (JLTV) contract award decision, GAO officials said.
The Utility Vehicle Light (UVL) Payload Category C was the second Joint Light Tactical Vehicle prototype that Lockheed Martin developed. (Lockheed Martin)
The GAO's report is complete but being held under protective order for the time being, a procurement official with the agency said.
In October, the Army awarded three $60 million technology development deals to a BAE Systems-Navistar team, Lockheed Martin-BAE Systems team, and an AM General-General Dynamics team called General Tactical Vehicles.
The following month, the Northrop-Oshkosh and Textron-Boeing-SAIC teams protested the Army's decision, alleging, among other things, that the selection process emphasized the existence of demonstrator vehicles despite no written requirement in the request for bids.
More details regarding the GAO's findings will be made available in the coming days.
