- Description
- The Marine Corps Systems Command (MARCORSYSCOM) intends to field an Improved Load Bearing Equipment (ILBE) System based upon known efficiencies, proven technologies and direct Marine input in order to maximize the mobility and survivability of the individual Marine. The IBLE system will primarily consist of a field pack and a fighting load carrying system (canteen and ammo pouches, etc.). The system must provide enhanced reliability, durability, wearability, and maintainability. The Marine Corps is looking for a system or design which is readily producible, simple and functional, easily integrated with current body armor and current or proposed fighting load carrying systems. The proposed system must provide Marines with quantifiable improvements in overall system capabilities when compared to the current fielded loadbearing system to include reduced system weight, comfort of wear, reduced system complexity. The Marine Corps intends to issue a final solicitation utilizing FAR Part l2 for commercial items in approximately 60 days for an estimated quantity of 200,000 over a 5 year period. This requirement is subject to the Berry Amendment and the NAICS code is 314900. MARCORSYSCOM will begin posting draft procurement documents and other information for industry comment in approximately 30 days at http://www.marcorsyscom.usmc.mil/mcscctq/oppor.htm. No documents are available at this time.
