Description

Description — Base Level Common Equipment

This program procures Base-level commercially available equipment from a list authorized by the Table of Distribution and Allowances (TDA) for Army activities but is not Army centrally managed or purchased. The equipment supports activities typically performed by garrisons, such as material and cargo handling, engineering and public works, port and terminal operations support, video teleconference and related information technology/audio visual equipment. Funds procure new investment items or replacements for existing equipment that is over-aged, obsolete, or beyond economical repair. The Base Level Commercial Equipment (BCE) programs enables the Department of the Army Criminal Investigation Division (DACID) which is primarily OMA funded to obtain certain investment end items such as non-standard, off the shelf equipment. The program procures new or lifecycle replacement of existing equipment which are outdated.

Justification

Justification — Base Level Common Equipment

The MB7000 Base Level Common Equipment (BCE) line funds multiple systems with differing unit costs. The Unit Cost on the P40 will fluctuate year-to-year depending on the underlying mix of systems procured. FY 2026 Base procurement dollars in the amount of $18.736 million supports IMCOM Installation requirements for new investment items or replacements for existing equipment that is over-aged, obsolete, or beyond economical repair. Installation Management Commands existing BCE fleet is fifteen to forty years old and exceeds overall programmed life expectancy and Army set Maintenance Expenditure Limits (MEL). This program enables the Army to replace equipment after years of continual heavy use and where major vehicle components are no longer available due to discontinuation by the manufacturer. Continued maintenance is increasingly cost prohibitive and competes with other critical Base Operations Service programs for resources. When new procurement is not possible, garrisons turn to leasing equipment at an extremely high cost, over 45% more expensive over the life of the vehicle, to meet mission requirements. Base procurement dollars in the amount of $0.716 million will support the Department of the Army Criminal Investigation Division (DACID) continuing effort to modernize the advancement of forensic and investigative equipment of the U.S. Army Criminal Investigation Laboratory (USACIL) in the disciplines of Trace Evidence, DNA and Drug Chemistry. Further, these dollars may be used to advance criminal investigative and executive protection capabilities across DACID. Procurement of emerging technologies and replacement of outdated laboratory instruments will ensure that DACID's USACIL remains a world class forensic provider supporting all Military Criminal Investigative Organizations (MCIOs) of the Department of Defense pursuing the successful resolution of reported criminal activity. BCE procurement funding may also be used for criminal investigative equipment requirements, the lifecycle replacement of servers, video teleconference equipment, related information technology/audio visual equipment (IT/AV), and/or technologies critical the provision of executive protections to high-risk personnel. In accordance with section 1815 of the FY 2008 National Defense Authorization Act (P.L. 110 - 181), this item is necessary for use by the active and reserve components of the Armed Forces for homeland defense missions, domestic emergency responses, and providing military support to civil authorities.
