About this IDV

The Federal Bureau of Investigation awarded a $15 million multiple-award indefinite-delivery contract to Predictive Ballistics LLC on June 1, 2025, for ballistic helmets and replacement parts under a total small business set-aside, with ultimate completion on May 31, 2030.

Predictive Ballistics LLC is a small disadvantaged business and Native Hawaiian Organization-owned firm headquartered in Aliso Viejo, California, with operations in Laguna Beach and Laguna Niguel, California. Place of performance is Laguna Niguel, California.

The originating solicitation (RFP 32425, posted April 8, 2024, due October 17, 2024) sought ballistic helmets meeting Helmet Protocol 2024 standards, including protection against pistol-caliber threats, backface deformation limits, and environmental protection requirements. Finished helmet assemblies must not weigh more than 4 pounds. The FBI intended to award two IDIQs with a $12 million ceiling for the primary awardee and $10 million for the secondary awardee.

Recent task orders issued under this IDIQ demonstrate heavy utilization across federal law enforcement. The Headquarters Division awarded a $150,619 order on September 12, 2026, for ballistic helmets and replacement parts. The Drug Enforcement Administration issued multiple orders, including a $2.499 million delivery order (OTAL-26-0032, January 28, 2026) and a $462,117 order (OTAL-2026-0044, February 25, 2026), both for ballistic helmets. The U.S. Marshals Service Training Academy awarded orders including $120,000 for Busch AMP-1X helmets (December 3, 2025) and $127,500 for Busch helmets (December 22, 2025). The U.S. Marshals Service regional offices across Eastern Virginia, South Dakota, Western Texas, and Eastern Wisconsin issued mission-critical fugitive apprehension orders in March and May 2026 ranging from $13,340 to $72,675.

NAICS code 35 (Apparel Accessories and Other Apparel Manufacturing) applies. PSC code 23-40-00 (Armor, Personal) is primary. Product portfolio includes the Busch and Busch AMP-1X helmet models, replacement parts, chin strap extenders, Velcro kits, and Peltor adapters.
