About this opportunity
The Department of Homeland Security US Secret Service seeks establishment of a five-year Indefinite Delivery/Indefinite Quantity contract for 9mm and 5.56 caliber training ammunition blanks, marking rounds, and non-marking rounds, with proposals due July 20 and questions due July 1. The procurement is set aside for total small business and carries a sole-source justification: the incumbent supplier, Ultimate Training Munitions (UTM), is the only source deemed capable because existing training weaponry at the Recruit Training Course has been fitted with aftermarket parts unique to UTM rounds (approximately $250,000 in modifications required for alternatives), and the proprietary StressVest training system functions exclusively with UTM ammunition (replacement cost estimated at $960,000).
Place of performance is Laurel, Maryland at the James J. Rowley Training Center, with final delivery to the US Secret Service Communications Center in Washington, DC. The contract runs September 15, 2026 through September 14, 2031, with a ceiling of $9,000,000 and minimum order value of $10,000; maximum orders are $3,000,000 per delivery order, with 90-day delivery required after order placement. All ammunition must comply with ANSI and SAAMI standards, feature virgin brass casings, newly manufactured propellants and primers (within 12 months), and be no older than two years from manufacture date. Marking rounds must be available in a minimum of four colors (red, green, blue, yellow) with non-toxic, water-washable compounds. The solicitation specifies function testing with defined malfunction tolerance thresholds; a second malfunction results in lot rejection. Evaluation uses Lowest Price Technically Acceptable criteria. The NAICS code is 332992, Small Arms Ammunition Manufacturing; PSC is 1305, Ammunition Through 30mm.
