About this IDV

The Kinetic Group Sales LLC, a wholly owned subsidiary of Vista Outdoor Inc., was awarded a multiple-award Other Transaction Indefinite Delivery Vehicle on May 18, 2020, with a ceiling value of $1.52 million to supply specialized ammunition products to the Program Executive Office Ground Combat Systems within the Department of Defense. The contract is designated for delivery of surrogate boron steel cartridges in three distinct caliber specifications: 7.62x51 millimeter, 8x55x50 millimeter, and 6.8x50 millimeter variants. These surrogate cartridges are non-lethal or reduced-hazard training rounds designed to replicate ballistic and handling characteristics of live ammunition while minimizing risk during training operations. The award was made through full and open competition with no small business set-aside designation, reflecting the contractor's established position as a large business prime contractor with demonstrated capability in specialized ammunition manufacturing and federal supply chain management.

The Kinetic Group Sales LLC brings substantial operational capacity and federal government experience to this engagement, supported by its parent company Vista Outdoor Inc.'s extensive network of ammunition production and supply chain infrastructure. The contractor currently maintains multiple significant Indefinite Delivery Contracts totaling approximately $132.96 million across federal law enforcement and defense agencies, including contracts with U.S. Customs and Border Protection ($99.9 million), Immigration and Customs Enforcement ($17.96 million), and Federal Law Enforcement Training Centers ($15 million). These established contracts demonstrate the contractor's capability to manage complex federal procurement requirements, meet stringent quality and delivery specifications, and support mission-critical government operations. The Other Transaction IDV award for surrogate boron steel cartridges expands the contractor's specialized ammunition product portfolio within the Department of Defense procurement framework, providing the Program Executive Office Ground Combat Systems with a streamlined vehicle for acquiring training ammunition through subsequent task orders throughout the contract period.
