Purchase Order SPE7L423P0539

This purchase order, awarded on November 29, 2022, provides a rifle firing mechanism to the U.S. Department of Defense through Saab Dynamics Aktiebolag, a Swedish-based defense manufacturer and subsidiary of global defense company Saab Aktiebolag. The firm fixed-price contract is valued at $26,065 with an ultimate completion date of March 8, 2024, and performance will be conducted entirely in Sweden. No small business set-aside designation was applied to this award, consistent with the contractor's status as a large, foreign-owned manufacturer. Saab Dynamics specializes in Man-Portable Anti-Armor Weapon Systems (MAAWS) components, including the Carl-Gustaf M3/E1 recoilless rifle and AT4 anti-tank weapon platforms, which are critical to multiple U.S. military branches.

This purchase order is issued under the Defense Logistics Agency's Land and Maritime division and represents one of numerous firm fixed-price delivery orders supporting ongoing sustainment of MAAWS platforms across the Department of Defense. Saab Dynamics maintains substantial indefinite delivery contracts valued at over $330 million combined with the Defense Logistics Agency and Program Executive Office Ammunition, reflecting its strategic importance as a primary supplier of specialized defense equipment and spare parts. The firing mechanism component supplied under this award directly supports operational readiness and maintenance of advanced anti-armor weapon systems utilized by the U.S. Army, Marine Corps, Navy, and Air Force.
