In February 2012, the Army recognized the requirement for 800 thermal viewers and allocated $2 million from FY2012 funds for their procurement. To facilitate this acquisition, the Army opted for a fixed-price redeterminable contract, which allows for adjustments in pricing based on future cost estimates while ensuring a stable initial price. This approach aims to balance cost control with flexibility in meeting the Army's thermal imaging needs.
