About this opportunity
The U.S. Army Contracting Command-New Jersey (ACC-NJ), on behalf of the Office of the Project Manager for Combat Ammunition Systems at Picatinny Arsenal, issued a sole source justification notice for a contract modification increasing the ceiling for 155mm M795 Metal Parts Artillery Assembly production. General Dynamics OTS (Wilkes Barre), LLC, the sole responsible source currently capable of meeting production requirements, was awarded Modification P00022 under existing contract W15QKN-19-D-0084 with a $15,000,000 ceiling increase, raising the total contract value from $891,165,000 to $906,165,000. The M795 is a 155mm high-explosive projectile weighing approximately 75 pounds used in M109 and M777 artillery systems and is essential for field artillery operations. The modification was justified under 10 U.S.C. 3204(c)(1) based on market research that identified General Dynamics OTS as the only low-risk supplier currently capable of maintaining production at the Scranton Army Ammunition Plant (SCAAP), a government-owned, contractor-operated facility. The additional funding supports increased production rates and ensures uninterrupted delivery of critical ammunition components necessary for potential military operations and strategic artillery capabilities.
