Lockheed, AM General May Protest JLTV Award | DoD Buzz: Defense contracting giant Lockheed Martin Corp. and Humvee-maker AM General LLC may protest the U.S. Army’s decision to award a contract to truck-maker Oshkosh Corp. to build a Humvee replacement.
In separate statements after the Army awarded Oshkosh a $6.7 billion contract to build the first 17,000 production models of the Joint Light Tactical Vehicle, the losing bidders expressed disappointment that they weren’t selected for the work.
Notably, they didn’t rule out the possibility of filing a protest over the decision with the Government Accountability Office, which adjudicates contract disputes
