Crew Served Weapons Gun Mounts 2011-2016

The Department of the Navy Naval Sea Systems Command established this Master IDIQ for crew served weapons gun mounts and stands on May 31, 2011, with ordering authority expiring May 20, 2016. This vehicle is no longer active; ordering closed 10 years ago.

The vehicle procured naval weapons mount assemblies and related components across the 2011-2016 ordering window, including MK-series universal mounts, dual .50 caliber mounts, single M240 mounts, submarine mounts, pintle assemblies, shield assemblies, rails, and ground tripods. Task orders comprised 29 total awards, with combined potential value of $3.1 million fully obligated, reflecting the small, consumable nature of individual orders. Order velocity declined sharply over time—17 orders issued in the opening year (2011), dropping to 7 in 2012, 3 in 2013, 1 in 2014, and 1 in 2015. Typical task-order values ranged from under one thousand dollars to the largest order at $1.7 million (MK 125 ground tripod, awarded August 2015 to ultimate completion in 2017).

All 29 orders were set-aside for total small business, with no unrestricted or other competitive tier. C M Engineering, Inc. dominated by potential value, holding $2.6 million across 7 orders (84% of vehicle total). Advanced Precision Manufacturing, Inc. and Precision Laser Services Inc. each held 5–7 orders but at substantially smaller values. Seven distinct primes shared the vehicle.

Naval Sea Systems Command itself placed the largest customer share (16 orders, $276 thousand), followed by Naval Supply Systems Command (4 orders, $956 thousand). Seven other agencies including Army Special Operations Command, Air Force Air Mobility Command, and the Coast Guard placed the remaining orders. The Navy customer base (16 + 4 = 20 orders) accounted for approximately 69% of task-order count.

This vehicle is closed to new task orders and residual value is exhausted. It remains relevant only for understanding legacy small-business weapon-mount supplier relationships or as precedent for successor vehicles.
