# Army Adds $697.7M to GM Defense Vehicle Contract

On September 14, 2026, the U.S. Army added a **$697.7 million** modification to GM Defense’s existing Infantry Squad Vehicle contract for engineering changes to the ISV-Utility and its winch kit, bringing the contract’s total value to $915.6 million. Work is expected to finish by June 25, 2028. This is not a new open solicitation; the modification may nevertheless create subcontracting and integration opportunities tied to vehicle upgrades and mission systems.

- The award is for engineering changes to the ISV-Utility and Infantry Squad Vehicle Utility Winch Kit; companies with relevant integration capabilities may assess opportunities to support GM Defense as the contract holder.
- GM Defense describes the Utility variant as capable of supporting mission packages such as command and control, fire support, electronic warfare, and counter-drone systems, which may be relevant to prospective subsystem and integration work.
- Procurement teams should treat this as activity under an existing Army contract, rather than an open bid opportunity, and focus business development on potential teaming or subcontracting avenues.
