The programme will utilise a common base platform to support a variety of warfighting roles across the Joint Force, enhancing interoperability, flexibility, and operational effectiveness.
The Contract will include an initial vehicle purchase with options to support future operational requirements, fleet growth and replacement needs vehicles with the ability to increase the vehicle fleet to in excess of 9,500.

In addition, the contract shall encompass the provision of a support solution, which may include but not be limited to maintenance, repair, and logistics support to sustain operational availability throughout the lifecycle of the vehicles. This support solution may be scalable and adaptable to meet the varying demands of the different vehicle variants and operational environments.
A Training element will be included in the requirement to ensure that personnel are fully equipped to operate, maintain, and support the LMV variants effectively.
The primary delivery location will be the United Kingdom. The support solution must be capable of providing support services worldwide.
