General Dynamics [GD] C4 Systems Feb. 8 protested to the Government Accountability Office the Army’s award to Lockheed Martin [LMT] of production and support for the Common Army/Marine Command and Control (CAMC2).

“It would be inappropriate to comment because the matter is in litigation,” a General Dynamics spokeswoman said.

The contract was awarded Feb. 1.

The Army Materiel Command on behalf of Army Communications Electronic Life Cycle Management Command Acquisition Center awarded the contract for the CAMC2. The system is part of the Army Mounted Battle Command On The Move (MBCOTM) Program and the Marine’sCommand and Control On The Move Network Digital Over The Horizon Relay (CONDOR) Program.

The five-year, Indefinite Delivery, Indefinite Quantity (IDIQ) contract has two one-year options including both Firm-Fixed Price (FFP) and Time and Materials (T&M) line items.

CAMC2 consists of an A-Kit and B-Kit installation on certain vehicles, such as General Dynamics’ Stryker, and is made up of Non-Developmental Item, rugged Commercial Off-the- Shelf, government furnished material, government furnished equipment and government furnished information.
