About this opportunity
The Department of the Army has awarded a sole-source Firm-Fixed-Price Requirements contract (W912CH26D0023) valued at $285,514.02 to an original equipment manufacturer (CAGE 11214) for manufacturing Shipping and Storage Containers (NSN 8145-01-535-5578, part number 16776-101) to support M1A2 SEPv2 Abrams Tank spares sustainment on June 9, 2026.
The justification cites FAR 6.302-1, only one responsible source, based on the contractor's proprietary technical data package that the Government does not possess. The contractor declined on October 21, 2024, to sell or license the technical data package. Market research conducted October 18, 2024, via a Sources Sought Notice identified two potential sources, but neither could proceed without access to the proprietary data. The Government estimates that reverse engineering would cost approximately $425,000 and require 33 months, creating unacceptable delays given current monthly demand of five containers. The estimated quantity is 198 containers over the five-year period of performance. The contractor must submit other than certified cost or pricing data, and the procurement is subject to availability of funds and includes subcontracting clauses to maximize small business opportunities. Funding source is Army Working Capital Funds.
