About this opportunity

The U.S. Army Contracting Command at Rock Island Arsenal (ACC-RI) is seeking proposals for M548 Metal Ammunition Containers (NSN: 8140-00-739-0233) through Solicitation W519TC-24-R-0028. The procurement will result in a five-year Indefinite Delivery Indefinite Quantity (IDIQ) contract with fixed pricing and economic price adjustment provisions. Proposals will be evaluated using Best Value/Trade-off Source Selection Procedures, with the Technical Approach factor being significantly more important than Past Performance, which is slightly more important than Price. The government requires contractors to meet their Technical Data Package specifications and complete First Article Testing within 270 days of order award. Proposals are due by January 21, 2025, and all questions must be submitted via email to Contracting Officer Joseph DePover and Contract Specialist Eric Mauricio.

The solicitation is a Total Small Business Set-Aside limited to U.S. manufacturers with a size standard of 1,500 employees. The incumbent contractor Conco, Inc. previously held two contracts valued at $11.3M and $16M for similar ammunition containers. The contract guarantees a minimum of 2,500 containers with a maximum potential quantity of 325,000 containers, with expected monthly production deliveries ranging from 3,500 to 10,000 units. Known delivery locations include Lake City AAP, Crane AAA, and General Dynamics in Marion, IL. Contractors will be required to submit detailed manufacturing plans, quality assurance plans, and management plans, with potential delivery locations spanning multiple U.S. military ammunition facilities. The economic price adjustment provisions specifically allow for variations in steel costs over the contract's five-year period.
