The U.S. Army TACOM Life Cycle Management Command has awarded a contract to Polaris Industries Inc. to continue to provide TACOM with the company's highly successful militarized ATV (All-Terrain Vehicle).
Under terms of this competitively awarded contract, Polaris will supply its MV700 ATVs, parts and accessories to TACOM. The MV700 has already proven to be a very versatile vehicle in supporting a wide variety of military missions conducted in urban, rural, mountain and desert areas in Southwest Asia.
The contract will cover three years and has a potential total value of more than $16 million. Deliveries of the ATVs will begin prior to December 31, 2007.
“Polaris is very proud to continue its role in providing the U.S. Army with world-class machines that can be relied on to perform under the toughest conditions,” said Polaris CEO Tom Tiller. “The awarding of this TACOM contract and the continued relationship with the U.S. Army represents a major step for our overall business as we drive to achieve growth in adjacent market segments.”
The long-standing relationship between Polaris and the U.S. Military began in earnest in 2002 and with increased opportunities over the past years, has become a great focus for new business for Polaris. With the U.S. military already using thousands of Polaris vehicles in the field, this new contract continues Polaris’ support of U.S. Army Forces and its allies with innovative, high-performance and high-quality products designed for a wide variety of military applications.
