Executive Summary_________________

This executive summary highlights some of the important features of this solicitation. If conflicts exist between this summary and the provisions of the solicitation, the provisions of the solicitation govern.

Pistols, M4 Carbine and eventual use in the M17 and M18 Modular Handgun Systems. Marking rounds (blue/red) will be used with the Close

Combat Mission Capability Kit (CCMCK). The CCMCK is a user installed temporary weapon conversion system that allows for the solider to employ an individual weapon (M9, M11 and M4) at a minimum engagement distance of five feet using low velocity marking ammunition while precluding the weapon from firing standard service ammunition. The marking ammunition shall be a reduced-energy, non-lethal cartridge, that leaves a bright, water-soluble color marking compound on target upon impact, without penetrating the soldier Army Combat Uniform

(ACI) or Personal Protective Equipment(PPE). The visible impact left by the marking compound allows for an accurate assessment of simulated lethality and shot placement.

The ammunition shall meet all requirements outlined in Performance Specification MIL-PRF-32312. The ammunition shall also be compatible with the current US Army qualified CCMCK weapon conversion system for the M9 and M11, and for the CCMCK Simunition Upper Receiver

Conversion Kit system for the M4 Carbine. The National Stock Number (NSN) for the 9mm M9 weapon CCMCK conversion kit is 1005-20-003-

2362. The NSN for the M11 weapon CCMCK conversion kit is 1005-20-003-2361. The NSN for the M4 Carbine CCMCK Simunition Upper Receiver

Conversion Kit is 1005-01-454-9283.

B.1 CONTRACT MINIMUM/MAXIMUM QUANTITY AND CONTRACT VALUE

The minimum amount and contract value for all orders issued against this contract shall not be less than the contract value stated in the following table. The maximum amount and contract value for all orders issued against this contract shall not exceed the contract value stated in the following table.

| Minimum Quantity | Minimum Amount | Maximum Quanity | Maximum Amount |

| N/A | $ 750,000 | N/A | $49,508,333 |

B.2 Delivery Order Pricing and Procedures: The Government intends to award Delivery Order 0001 at the same time the contract is awarded.

See Section I, FAR clause 52.216-19 for minimum and maximum quantity and dollar threshold information.

B.3 Each Ordering Period (OP) of the contract shall be from the date of contract award until one year later. For example, if the base contract were awarded on 01 September 2021, OP1 would be from 01 September 2021 to 31 August 2022. OP2 would then begin on 01 September

2022. OP3-OP5 would follow the same schedule.

B.4 The prices agreed to between the Government the Contractor shall be valid for the entire Ordering Period (OP), regardless of when an order is placed within that year. For example, if the period of performance is 12 months and an order is placed in the 11th month, the price in effect during the 12 month period is the price that is awarded.

B.5 The Government reserves the right to obtain a price at the higher range if an order is placed within 120 days of a previous order.

For example, if an order is placed for the negotiated price for the range of 750,000 on 01 September 2021, and another order is placed within 120 days of 01 September 2021 that brings the aggregate amount of both orders to the next range of 750,001 - 1,500,000, then the negotiated price for that higher range will be used. This will be accomplished by modifying the initial order to reflect the higher range and its negotiated price. A new order will not be placed. Also, please note that this window shall not cross ordering periods.
