Ammunition, Over 30Mm Up To 75Mm

PSC Category 1310 encompasses ammunition and munitions systems in the 30mm to 75mm caliber range, primarily supporting military, law enforcement, and federal agency operational and training requirements. These products include high-explosive, practice, marking, and less-than-lethal ammunition types for various weapon systems such as grenade launchers, mortar systems, and specialized tactical equipment. The category covers a wide spectrum of munitions, from training rounds to combat-ready cartridges designed for diverse mission-specific applications.

Federal contract awards in this category demonstrate robust procurement activity, with contract values ranging from several thousand to over $116 million. Key contractors include Nammo Perry Inc., Amtec Corporation, General Dynamics OTS, and Global Military Products Inc. The U.S. Army's Program Executive Office for Ammunition is the most frequent awarding agency, followed by the Naval Sea Systems Command and the Department of Justice Bureau of Prisons. Most awards are firm fixed-price delivery orders without specific set-aside designations, though some smaller contracts utilize total small business set-asides. Performance locations are predominantly in the continental United States, with manufacturing facilities in states like Pennsylvania, Wisconsin, Florida, and Ohio.

The federal contract opportunities in this category focus on specific munitions procurement and testing requirements. The most recent opportunities include a U.S. Army solicitation for demilitarization and disposal of obsolete projectiles, an FBI request for chemical and smoke munitions, and a Department of the Army solicitation for ballistic armor testing involving specialized rifle barrels. These opportunities are predominantly set aside for small businesses and involve technical specifications for specialized ammunition and testing equipment, indicating a continued need for precise, high-performance munitions components across federal agencies.
