Army Joint Program Executive Office, Chemical Biological Radiological and Nuclear Defense Rapid COTS

The Department of the Army Acquisition Support Center established a Master IDIQ for the Army Joint Program Executive Office, Chemical Biological Radiological and Nuclear Defense Rapid COTS on July 20, 2020, with a shared ceiling of $500 million, but ordering closed on July 19, 2021 — the vehicle is no longer open to new task orders.

Despite the closed ordering window, the vehicle remains active in execution. The 652 task orders awarded to date carry combined potential value of $447.2 million, with $422.3 million obligated (94% of potential value). The vehicle delivered 64 orders in 2025 through early September, down from 149 in 2022 but sustained across the life of existing orders. Most recent awards (September 2025) include delivery orders valued at $7.5 million for analytical capabilities and $6.7 million each for HAPSITE and joint service mask leakage testers, all firm-fixed-price procurements with performance extending into 2026 and 2027.

The scope spans COTS equipment for CBRN detection, identification, monitoring, and protection: personal protective equipment, chemical and biological warfare agent detection gear, radiological and nuclear detection and analysis instruments, decontamination systems, situational awareness platforms, and emerging-threat mitigation tools. Task order titles reference specific equipment platforms including respirators, filters, chromatographs, biosensors, suits, field-deployable hydrolysis systems, and robotic integration kits.

Mountain Horse LLC dominates the prime contractor base, holding 270 of 652 orders valued at $165.8 million in combined potential value — roughly 37% of vehicle activity. Scitech Services Inc. ranks second by value at $80.5 million across 54 orders, while Atlantic Diving Supply, Inc. holds 131 orders valued at $69.5 million. MJL Enterprises, LLC, Government Scientific Source Inc., and three other primes round out the active base. The top five contractors account for 96% of orders.

Army programs drive the customer base. Department of the Army Materiel Command Research Development and Engineering Command leads with 232 orders ($64.4 million potential value), followed by Sustainment Command with 169 orders ($84.1 million). Defense Finance and Accounting Service placed 113 orders valued at $118.4 million — an unusual concentration for a payment agency, likely reflecting funding-execution mechanics rather than end-use. The JPEO-CBRND Joint PEO itself placed 55 orders ($80.9 million potential value).

Roughly 79% of task orders carry a Total Small Business set-aside designation (518 orders), with the remainder unrestricted (134 orders). Individual orders are priced on a firm-fixed-price basis, ranging from below $10,000 to $8.5 million, with typical equipment buys in the $700,000 to $3.7 million envelope.

The JPEO-CBRND is tasked to provide type and non-type classified commercial Off-the-Shelf (COTS) CBRN equipment that directly detects, identifies, monitors, and protects individuals from the effects of CBRN contamination and enhances their capability to assess, detect, identify and mitigate at a CBRN or WMD incident/event to the warfighter.
