About this opportunity
The Department of the Army, through Tobyhanna Army Depot (TYAD), has issued a Request for Information (RFI) seeking qualified vendors to produce unfinished Advanced Combat Helmet (ACH) ballistic bolts and ACH/Enhanced Combat Helmet (ECH) nuts. This special notice is categorized under ballistic hardware manufacturing and focuses on screws, nuts, and washers for military protective equipment. The RFI is posted as an open announcement that will remain active until July 20, 2030, providing contractors with an extended timeframe to respond. The agency is specifically looking to establish relationships with manufacturers capable of producing critical components for soldier protective equipment systems.
The primary objective is to establish Multiple Blanket Purchase Agreements (BPAs) with vendors approved by Product Manager Soldier Protective Equipment (PM SPE) for a five-year ordering period. Contractors must demonstrate manufacturing capabilities using specific technical data packages, working with 4340 Alloy Steel materials while meeting stringent requirements including hardness specifications, material traceability, and ISO 9001-2015 quality management standards. Vendors must submit capability statements proving PM SPE qualification, with the Army showing preference for small businesses and organizations with socio-economic certifications. All manufactured hardware will undergo rigorous Lot Verification Testing at Aberdeen Test Center, and vendors will be responsible for corrective actions if their products fail testing. Interested companies should include comprehensive company details, points of contact, and any teaming arrangements in their submissions to Mr. Steven Wiltz at Tobyhanna Army Depot.
