The U.S. Army has awarded BAE Systems Land and Armaments a cost-no-fee contract action valued at up to $423.3 million to manufacture and deliver self-propelled howitzer weapon systems. Work on the contract will be performed at multiple sites across the country, including Pennsylvania, Michigan and South Carolina, the Department of Defense said Wednesday.
DOD solicited bids on the internet for the requirement, with only one submission received. The Army Contracting Command at Detroit Arsenal in Michigan served as the contracting activity.
