7.62MM barrel blanks

This Multiple Award Other Transaction Indefinite Delivery Vehicle (IDV), awarded to Ormond, LLC on August 13, 2020, by the Army Contracting Command (ACC) Picatinny Arsenal with a ceiling value of $426,920, procures 7.62 millimeter barrel blanks for Department of Defense weapons research and development initiatives. Ormond, LLC, a small business precision manufacturing specialist headquartered in Federal Way, Washington, was selected without a set-aside designation to supply these critical components supporting the Army's weapons modernization efforts. The company's established expertise in advanced manufacturing technologies, particularly in precision machining and metal tube processing, positions it to deliver the specialized barrel blanks required under this vehicle. As a Multiple Award IDV, this contract establishes a framework for streamlined task order issuance, enabling the government to procure required quantities and specifications throughout the contract's performance period without repetitive full and open competition.

The procurement of 7.62 millimeter barrel blanks through this Other Transaction vehicle supports the Army's broader weapons research programs and soldier lethality enhancement initiatives. Ormond, LLC's demonstrated track record with the Department of Defense in precision manufacturing, combined with its previous SBIR contract awards and established IDV with Army Research Development and Engineering Command for water jet honing and machining services, demonstrates capability alignment with this procurement requirement. The Other Transaction authority utilized for this IDV provides enhanced flexibility in contract administration and potentially accelerates delivery of these components compared to traditional Federal Acquisition Regulation-based contracts. This vehicle facilitates the government's ability to issue task orders for specified quantities of barrel blanks as operational and programmatic needs arise during the contract performance period, with all costs contained within the $426,920 ceiling value.
