The Secretary of Defense today canceled the KC-45 re-proposal. He decided that there was not enough time to do this before the end of President Bush’s second term. The announcement was made via a press release this afternoon. Secretary Gates stated that ““It has now become clear that the solicitation and award process cannot be accomplished by January,” he said. “Thus, I believe that rather than hand the next administration an incomplete and possibly contested process, we should cleanly defer this procurement to the next team.”
This decision ends temporarily a seven year saga that started with Boeing being given a lease for 767 tankers, through a proper competition that was thrown out by the GAO, and what was expected to be a quick recompete starting this month.
