The Army Contracting Command-Rock Island (ACC-RI), on behalf of the Project Director Joint Services and the Joint Munitions Command, intends to issue Request for Proposal (RFP) W52P1J-19-R-0142 for the production of explosives and the operation and modernization of the Holston Army Ammunition Plant (HSAAP) beginning in calendar year 2024. HSAAP is a Government-Owned, Contractor-Operated facility located in Kingsport, TN that produces Research Development Explosive (RDX), High Melting Explosive (HMX), and Insensitive Munitions Explosive (IMX). In addition to the production of RDX, HMX, and IMX explosives, the operating contractor will be required to operate and modernize equipment and facilities, and provide numerous base support operations (e.g., environmental, fire protection, safety, security). This procurement will be restricted to the U.S. or its outlying areas.

ACC-RI intends to conduct a best value subjective tradeoff source selection which will result in a single award of one hybrid supply contract to one Offeror consisting of Firm-Fixed-Price (FFP) Contract Line Item Numbers (CLINs) for production items and Indefinite Delivery Indefinite Quantity CLINs for modernization efforts that may be either FFP or cost reimbursement. The resultant contract will consist of a base period with five, one-year ordering periods; an evaluated option for five, one-year ordering periods executed at the time of award, and two subsequent unevaluated five-year option periods. Therefore, the total potential period of performance is 20 ordering periods. There will be a one-year transition period following the final ordering period to allow for completion of deliveries and ongoing Production Base Support (PBS)/Modernization projects.

This synopsis does not constitute a RFP, and shall not be construed as a commitment by the Government for any purpose. All questions and comments regarding this notice shall be directed to the Contracting Officer, Jacob Harrison, jacob.t.harrison15.civ@army.mil.
