About this award

Pacific Scientific Energetic Materials Co California LLC was awarded a definitive firm fixed-price contract valued at $648,746 by the Defense Contract Management Agency on April 30, 2024, for the manufacture of MK 70 initiators. The contract, which carries no set-aside designation and reflects full and open competition, is scheduled for completion by October 31, 2025, with performance to be conducted at the contractor's facility in Chandler, Arizona. Initiators are critical pyrotechnic components used across defense platforms to trigger ordnance systems, ejection seats, and other time-sensitive military mechanisms.

Pacific Scientific, a subsidiary entity specializing in energetic materials and pyrotechnic solutions, is well-positioned as a supplier of such components, having established itself as a key manufacturer for U.S. military branches through prior prime contracts with Naval Sea Systems Command, Air Force Materiel Command, and the Department of the Army. The company's extensive experience producing high-precision ordnance items, electrical cartridges, and specialized initiator components for aircraft, missile, and naval platforms, combined with its role as a significant subcontractor to major defense primes including Lockheed Martin, Raytheon, Boeing, and Northrop Grumman, demonstrates its technical capability to fulfill this requirement.
