About this award
The Bureau of Alcohol, Tobacco, Firearms and Explosives (ATF) awarded a $11,000 firm fixed-price task order call to Matthew G. Abowd, operating as Matt's Explosives Instruction, on March 15, 2026, with completion targeted for March 28, 2026. This award is designated as a total small business set-aside and falls under a Blanket Purchase Agreement (BPA) established with Abowd on May 14, 2021, with a $500,000 ceiling through May 13, 2026. The work will be performed in Friendswood, Texas, and involves exercise support specialist services. As a sole proprietor, Abowd will deliver all services directly without subcontractor involvement.
Since receiving the BPA in 2021, Abowd has been issued over 50 prime contract task orders exclusively from the ATF, ranging from several thousand to $19,000 per order. His specialized expertise encompasses post-blast investigation training, explosive device recognition instruction, explosives safety education, and exercise support services delivered to ATF facilities, the ATF National Academy, and other federal law enforcement locations. The BPA structure has enabled the ATF to efficiently access Abowd's technical expertise on an as-needed basis to support the agency's critical explosives regulatory, law enforcement, and national training programs.
