What is Focused Sustainment?

In the course of normal worldwide field operations, the Army will require supplemental assistance to successfully operate and maintain the highly complex fleet of equipment being used by soldiers today. Similarly, the U.S. Army Tank-automotive and Armaments Command (TACOM) will require products and services to fulfill its mission to sustain the Army's field operations.

The intent of the Focused Sustainment support contract is to provide the Army and other government agencies, with the means to immediately respond to critical missions required to sustain the high OPTEMPO faced by our forces.

TACOM has created a Task Order contract that can support all United States government agencies worldwide. Focused Sustainment is a long-term program intended to provide the contracting flexibility and responsiveness necessary to respond to critical mission requirements. The contract features pre-negotiated skill categories. Proposals can be completed by DUCOM within as little as 24 hours from time of receipt. The quick turn-around, combined with other features, significantly reduces the time required and associated cost to the Government and enables rapid contract award and start of performance by the DUCOM team.
