About this award

Decryptor XP Inc., a small business contractor, was awarded a definitive firm fixed-price contract by the Air Force Materiel Command valued at $1.91 million to produce BBU-48 A/B Impulse Cartridges (Part Number 8241124-50, National Stock Number 1377-01-640-7205). The contract, which originated from pre-solicitation FA8213-24-R-B012 issued by the Air Force Materiel Command Lifecycle Management Center at Hill Air Force Base, is designated as a Total Small Business Set Aside. The work will be performed at the contractor's facility in Whitewright, Texas, with an ultimate completion date of April 30, 2026.

The procurement was issued as a limited competition restricted to qualified sources, with Decryptor and Valor Tactical identified as the two qualified vendors capable of manufacturing these impulse cartridges. The solicitation process anticipated potential split-award arrangements among successful offerors, though the Air Force ultimately awarded the contract to Decryptor XP Inc. Impulse cartridges are essential ordnance components used across various Air Force platforms for ejection systems and emergency separation mechanisms, making this production contract critical to sustaining operational readiness of military aircraft systems.
