Statement of Work (SOW) for Montana Army National Guard (MTARNG)

UltraSonic Cleaners for Military Weapons (Small Arms)

1. BACKGROUND:

1.1. The MTARNG is seeking commercial off the shelf (COTS) ultrasonic cleaners to assist users in cleaning M2 and M4 weapon systems. Users are required to properly clean weapons, minimize lead and chemical contamination, and prevent damage to firearms. Standard manual cleaning methods for this weapon system are labor-intensive, time-consuming, and frequently fail to remove carbon crust, copper fouling, and packed lubricants from deep recesses, blind holes, and critical internal surfaces (e.g., the bolt assembly, barrel extension, and receiver interior). To improve operational readiness, reduce maintenance cycle times, and extend weapon service life, the Command requires an automated, high-capacity, dual-stage ultrasonic cleaning and lubrication system.

1.2. The ultrasonic cleaners will be essential for units utilizing live-fire ranges throughout the training year.

This equipment will be utilized by multiple units, year-round and must be able to withstand heavy usage, and be minimally damaging to the environment.
