The Program Manager Office Light Armored Vehicles (PMO LAV), based at the U.S. Army TACOM Life Cycle Management Command (LCMC) at Detroit Arsenal, is conducting market research to find manufacturers for muffler shrouds.

The government is evaluating industry capacity to produce up to 125 shrouds according to specific technical drawings.

Because the technical drawings contain Controlled Technical Information (CTI), firms must demonstrate compliance with DFARS clauses 252.204-7012 and 252.204-7020 before receiving documentation. Responses are due by June 16, 2026, for this effort located in Warren, Michigan. The market research instrument outlines technical eligibility, manufacturing scope, and a detailed questionnaire regarding readiness, first article testing, and monthly production rates. This research phase will inform future acquisition strategies by gathering capability statements, manufacturing details, and engineering capacity from interested firms. Production of up to 125 muffler shrouds for various Marine Corps Light Armored Vehicle (LAV) variants.
