MMO Load Sensing Kit

The 90th Contracting Squadron intends to award a sole source contract to Lynch Denver for the acquisition and installation of a Miller Industries Load Monitoring System (LMS) on a Western Star 49X Century Series Wrecker. The LMS is a proprietary product of Miller Industries, specifically engineered for Century Series wreckers, and its installation requires OEM-certified expertise. The contract includes transportation, parts, and labor required to install and calibrate the OEM Load Monitoring System at the Miller Industries factory in Tennessee. The anticipated performance period is 60 days from the date of contract, with actual installation estimated to take 4 weeks once on site. Key deliverables include the MMO Load Sensing Kit, round-trip freight of the vehicle, Miller-certified installation, integration, and programming, and system calibration and certification. • The LMS integrates into the vehicle's CAN bus system, hydraulic controls, and digital interface, requiring technical expertise and specialized tools available only through Miller-certified channels. • The contract is justified as a sole source procurement due to the proprietary nature of the LMS and the critical need for OEM-certified installation. • The acquisition is essential to ensure operational safety and mission readiness for the wrecker, which is one of only two such vehicles in the US Air Force.
