About this vehicle
The Department of the Army established this Master IDIQ on November 26, 2024, for 60mm, 81mm, and 120mm mortar propelling charges, with ordering authority extending through September 30, 2029. The vehicle carries no set-aside restrictions; all four awarded task orders are unrestricted, full-and-open competition. Activity is concentrated: General Dynamics Ordnance & Tactical Systems, Inc., and American Ordnance LLC each hold two task orders and collectively represent 100 percent of awarded work.
The Army Acquisition Support Center, PEO Ammunition has placed all four task orders as the sole customer, obligating $59.1 million against a combined potential value of $42.4 million. Two orders placed on November 26, 2024, were minimum-guarantee deliveries with ceiling values of approximately $4,800 each; subsequent orders issued June 17, 2025, scaled to $17.8 million and $24.6 million potential value respectively, with the latter obligated at $41.3 million—indicating acceleration in production demand. Ultimate completion dates span April 30, 2026, through August 31, 2027.
General Dynamics holds $24.6 million in combined potential value across its two orders; American Ordnance holds $17.9 million. The vehicle supplies mortars with specific technical data package requirements marked for DoD and contractor use only, manufactured under arms-export controls and requiring DD Form 2345 military critical technical data approval. All delivery orders specify firm-fixed-price contracts for 60mm (M204, M235, M236), 81mm (M218, M219, M220, M658), and 120mm (M234A1) propelling charges comprised of felted-fiber increment containers filled with prescribed propellant formulations. With obligated dollars exceeding potential value by 39 percent and completion dates concentrated in 2026–2027, the vehicle shows strong near-term demand but limited future ordering capacity under its five-year ceiling.
