About this opportunity
The Department of the Army Materiel Command Mission and Installation Contracting Command Fort Drum is seeking to procure ballistic rubber blocks designed to encapsulate ammunition during weapons testing and training operations. The solicitation includes two specific items: 80 units of the Super Dura Block (Model RB1009, measuring 48" x 24" x 8.75" and weighing 306 lbs each) and 80 units of the Dura Block (Model RB1000, measuring 24" x 12" x 9" and weighing 76 lbs each). Both products feature patented rubber composite construction with self-healing properties capable of containing ammunition up to 7.62 caliber rounds, with the rounds becoming encapsulated within the block after penetration. The solicitation was posted on March 3, 2026, with proposals due by March 10, 2026, providing contractors with a one-week response window. While specific evaluation criteria are not detailed in the notice, the procurement falls under the Rubber Fabricated Materials category (PSC 9320) and All Other Rubber Product Manufacturing (NAICS 326299).
This is a Total Small Business set-aside opportunity, restricting competition to certified small business entities. The Dura Block (RB1000) is identified as a replacement item for an existing Encapsulate Bullet Trap System, suggesting there may be an incumbent contractor, though no specific contractor name is provided in the notice. The contract will be performed at Fort Liberty, North Carolina 28310. No specific contract value or budget range is disclosed in the solicitation notice. The requirement totals 160 ballistic rubber blocks across both item types, with additional sizes of the Dura Block available as options. Interested small businesses should submit proposals by the March 10, 2026 deadline to be considered for this defense-related procurement.
