Expandable and Non-Expandable International Organization for Standardization (ISO) Type Shelter Production

The ASF-RWS P1 Expandable/Non Expandable program represents a comprehensive effort to modernize and standardize the next generation of Army Rigid Wall Shelters by incorporating 30+ years of shelter performance technology and improved manufacturing for increased producibility and affordability.

Compared to the legacy ISO Shelters, the ASF-RWS P1 shelters will provide more modular shelters for increased interoperability and scalability with the objective to provide a 50% greater payload for broader mission sets while also being 5% lighter weight while providing suitability in extreme environments for effectiveness around the globe. The ultimate goal of the ASF-RWS P1 Variant is to maintain standard shelter designs for greater sustainability and reduced life cycle costs.

The ASF-RWS P1 program modernizes three Types of Army ISO rigid wall shelters: Type A - Non-expandable Type B - One-sided expandable Type C - Two-sided expandable Each Type has twelve variants based on color (tan or green), electrical requirements (60 or 100 Amp) and Class (H for heavy equipped with hook bar for transport and M for medical). A total of 36 Shelter variants will be procured under this effort.

An Indefinite Delivery/Indefinite Quantity (IDIQ) Fixed Price (FP), 10-year development contract with Equitable Price Adjustment (EPA) production options is awarded with a contract value totaling $432.605M and an estimated $2.4M minimum order guarantee.

Product Manager Force Sustainment Systems (PM FSS) is coordinating with Army Contracting Command-Aberdeen Proving Ground - Natick Division (ACC-APG, Natick) for a 10-year contract (five-year base development period with one five-year optional production ordering period). A 10-year contract duration will minimize the number of different P1 shelter configurations over the next 25-30 years as well as reduce logistics costs to support next generation of ASF-RWS P1 shelters.
