The key products and services being delivered under this federal Indefinite Delivery Contract (IDC) awarded to General Dynamics Ordnance & Tactical Systems, Inc. (GDOTS) are various types of ammunition, including 20mm, 25mm, 30mm, and 50mm cartridges, for the U.S. Army, Air Force, Navy, and Marine Corps. The $3.05 billion IDC, awarded by the U.S. Army Contracting Command - PEO Ammunition, has a period of performance through March 2029. Under this IDC, GDOTS has received multiple task orders, including a $280 million award for 25mm M919 Armor Piercing Fin Stabilized Discarding Sabot with Tracer (APFSDS-T) cartridges and an $8.8 million award for 20mm PGU-27 ammunition. The company will manufacture the ammunition at its facility in Marion, Illinois, leveraging its expertise in energetics and precision manufacturing to meet the military's diverse ammunition requirements. While the IDC and task orders do not have small business set-asides, GDOTS has subcontracted with several smaller firms to provide components, testing equipment, and services to support the production of these munitions.
The scope of this IDC demonstrates GDOTS's critical role as a prime contractor for the Department of Defense's ammunition needs, spanning a range of calibers and applications. The contract vehicles allow the Army's Program Executive Office for Ammunition to rapidly fulfill requirements and maintain in-house design, development, and testing capabilities for its portfolio of medium-caliber ammunition systems. These awards reinforce GDOTS's position as a leading supplier of ammunition and related engineering services to the U.S. military.
