LTT HC Area of Interest

Light Tactical Trailer Heavy Chassis (LTT-HC): The Army is seeking a commercially available or non-developmental item (NDI) solution with minimal modifications from current configurations. The Government intends to leverage commercial capabilities to improve manufacturing efficiency, enhance reliability, and fill immediate need for a highly mobile tactical trailer to transport electric generators. Recent Government trailer production approaches face challenges including rising material and manufacturing costs and component obsolescence (e.g., Brake lining material). The Government seeks commercial solutions for the LTT-HC that meets or exceeds current performance requirements (Attachment 001 LTT-HC Desired Attributes). The Government anticipates a requirement of approximately 720 trailers for a two-year period and up to 1,500 over a five-year period and request industry feedback regarding optimal contract length.
The LTT-HC consists of two models: LTT-HC, and LTT-HC Advanced Medium Mobile Power Sources (AMMPS). The contractor shall produce and integrate the AMMPS Kit on LTT-HC. The LTT-HC will be sustained organically and must be capable of being operated and maintained by Army soldiers without civilian intervention. The LTT-HC is an open frame, single axle, 3,025 lb. payload trailer chassis. It is one of the primary companion trailers for the High Mobility Multi-Purpose Wheeled Vehicles (HMMWV). The LTT-HC was developed to meet the Army’s continuing need for a highly mobile tactical trailer to transport electric generators. The gross vehicle weight for the LTTHC matches the towing capacity of the HMMWV. The LTT-HC is a platform of Project Manager Expeditionary Energy & Sustainment Systems (PM E2S2) system acquisition programs, which include the AMMPS generator. The LTT-HC AMMPS is a trailer with mounting kit designed to accommodate integration of AMMPS generators. The program is interested in offerors building both models (LTT-HC and LTT-HC AMMPS). Commercial solutions will be reviewed against the following attributes. These attributes are desired but not mandatory for eligibility.
