About this opportunity
The Department of the Army, through Army Contracting Command - Detroit Arsenal, issued a Justification and Approval for non-competitive procurement of the Blasting Machine (NSN 1375-01-417-7104), a critical component that delivers initial energy to activate the Mine Clearing Line Charge (MICLIC) system. The sole-source award was justified under FAR 6.302-1(a)(2)(ii)(B) based on unacceptable delays that would result from competitive re-procurement, as Blasters Tool & Supply Company, Inc. is the only viable source capable of providing the required technical data and equipment following its 2023 acquisition and 2024 merger with Research Energy of Ohio Inc., which held all intellectual property rights to the system. The contract was awarded to Blasters Tool & Supply Company, Inc. (CAGE 0Z3P4), a small business concern, on March 23, 2026, for a firm-fixed-price contract valued at $989,712 for the base order of 1,044 units with a 100% option for an additional 1,044 units, totaling 2,088 units. Market research, including a Sources Sought Notice, confirmed no other viable sources were available to meet the Government's requirements. Funding for this critical defense procurement will be provided through Army Working Capital Funds, and the contractor is exempt from small business subcontracting plan requirements due to its small business status.
