About this opportunity
This solicitation seeks proposals to procure infrared countermeasure flares of models M206 and MJU-7A/B from the Department of the Army Materiel Command Joint Munitions Command. The M206 flare protects helicopters and low-altitude aircraft, while the MJU-7A/B flare protects fighter and cargo aircraft from infrared heat-seeking missiles. Offerors must have the facilities, equipment, personnel trained in handling hazardous pyrotechnic formulations, and clearance to work with classified technical data. Proposals will be evaluated using best value tradeoff procedures, with responses due by February 10, 2020.
There is no set-aside designated for this procurement. The NAICS code is 325998 for all other miscellaneous chemical product and preparation manufacturing, with a business size standard of 500 employees. The potential contract value is a minimum of $12 million over five one-year ordering periods through fiscal year 2024. Production must take place within facilities that meet explosive safety standards, as the flares utilize magnesium and Teflon formulations requiring specialized manufacturing equipment and processes. The technical data packages for the flares are classified Distribution D and restricted to the Department of Defense and its contractors.

Infrared (IR) Counter Measure (CM) Flare Family of M206 and MJU-7A/B.
The Army Contracting Command - Rock Island (ACC-RI) is issuing Request for Proposal, W52P1J-17-R-0155, to the beta.sam.gov website with a closing date of 3 February 2020. Amendment 0001 has been released with an effective date of 18 December 2019. Amendment 0002 has been released with an effective date of 23 January 2020. Amendment 0003 has been released with an effective date of 31 January 2020. Amendment 0004 has been released with an effective date of 6 February 2020.
Item Description:
1) M206, NSN: 1370-01-048-2138 (L410) P/N: 9311623. The M206 is used for protection of helicopters and low altitude aircraft (AH-1S; CH-47, OV-1D, UH-1; RUY-21; EH-60; RV-1; UH-60 series, AH-64; RC-12; OH-58) from infrared heat-seeking missiles. It can also be used on A-10, F-16 and C-130 aircraft. The M206 is an integral (one piece) flare consisting of a magnesium and Teflon pellet in a 1 inch x 1 inch x 8 inch metal case. The flare is dispensed from the AN/ALE-40 series dispenser.
2) MJU-7A/B, NSN: 1370-01-296-8395 (L463) P/N: 8856664. The MJU-7A/B is used for protection on the F-16, A- 10 and C-130 aircraft against infrared heat-seeking missiles. The MJU-7A/B is an integral (one piece) flare consisting of a magnesium and Teflon pellet in a 1 inch x 2 inch x 8 inch metal case. This flare is dispensed from the AN/ALE-40 series dispenser.
The Technical Data Package (TDP) for the above IR/CM flares is Distribution D and will be restricted to Department of Defense (DoD) and U.S. DoD Contractors. All interested producers must have personnel trained, skilled, and experienced in the handling of very sensitive hazardous pyrotechnic formulations that produce extreme heat when ignited, i.e., magnesium-Teflon composition. Also required are equipment designed and tooled for production of very sensitive/volatile hazardous materials, i.e., explosive mixers, consolidation presses, extruders and ovens. Facilities must meet proper fire/explosive safety requirements, such as deluge systems, remote operations, sufficient storage and manufacturing space to meet quantity distance requirements. Unique processes used in the manufacture of the IR/CM flares are pyrotechnic mixing and pressing/extruding of explosive materials. Additionally, any contractor must have clearance to work with classified documents, as portions of the technical data package are classified. Failure to procure the IR/CM flares from a fully qualified source could result in failure of the part, degradation, of aircraft mission capability, or loss of aircraft and crew.
The NAICS code for this item is 325998 with a business size standard of 500 employees.
