The anticipated contract award date is September 2023, and the procurement falls under the Battery Manufacturing NAICS category (335910) with a Product Service Code (PSC) of 6135 for nonrechargeable batteries. The total contract value and specific budget ranges are not disclosed in the pre-solicitation notice, but the detailed CLIN structure suggests a comprehensive manufacturing and delivery effort for these specialized missile guidance system batteries.
