About this opportunity
This Limited/Sole Source Justification Notice from the U.S. Army Contracting Command - New Jersey is for a new five-year indefinite delivery/indefinite quantity contract for the procurement of M249 Squad Automatic Weapons from FN America, LLC. The justification cites 10 U.S.C. 2304(c)(1) and FAR 6.302-1(a)(2)(ii)(A), determining that FN America, LLC is the only responsible source available due to having produced the M249 SAW for over 35 years and made significant investments into its manufacturing process, and that awarding to any other source would result in substantial duplication of costs not expected to be recovered through competition. The anticipated total requirement is for an unknown quantity of weapons over the five-year ordering period, with an anticipated award date of September 22, 2020 and a maximum ceiling amount for the contract.
