About this award

Eaglepicher Technologies LLC was awarded a delivery order valued at approximately $8.1 million by the Air Force Materiel Command on September 25, 2023, for the qualification and production of MK12A lithium batteries, with performance required through November 2027. This delivery order falls under a larger $30 million single-award Indefinite Delivery/Indefinite Quantity contract between Eaglepicher and the Air Force Materiel Command Nuclear Weapons Center for MK12A battery qualification and production through September 2028. The contract employs cost-plus-fixed-fee pricing and carries no small business set-aside designation, with work performed at Eaglepicher's Joplin, Missouri facility. Eaglepicher Technologies, a specialized defense contractor with decades of experience manufacturing advanced battery systems for military platforms including the B-2 bomber and F-22 aircraft, is well-positioned to deliver the thermal and lithium battery solutions required for this critical defense application.

Supporting this prime contract, Eaglepicher has engaged multiple subcontractors to provide essential components and materials. Mapp Technologies, L.L.C., a small business manufacturer, was awarded subcontracts in December 2024 and January 2025 for machined components including check valves, outlets, reservoirs, and containers. Dela Technology Corporation, a woman-owned small business, received a subcontract award in June 2024 for pressure valve manufacturing. BAE Systems Ordnance Systems Inc., operating the Radford Army Ammunition Plant in Virginia, was awarded a subcontract in March 2025 for propellant materials. This supply chain demonstrates Eaglepicher's collaborative approach to meeting complex battery production requirements while leveraging specialized capabilities across its defense industrial base partners.
