About this opportunity

The Army Contracting Command Rock Island Arsenal seeks firm fixed price procurement of Fire Extinguisher Cartridges MU26 and MU27 (NSN 1377-01-255-2382ES and 1377-01-255-1598ES, part numbers 30903860 and 30903861), with proposals due July 14, 2026. This procurement is restricted to one or a limited number of qualified sources under 10 U.S.C. 3204(a)(1); only Pacific Scientific Energetic Materials (Cage Code 54181) is currently approved. To be eligible for award, the offeror must submit a valid Qualification Acceptance Letter signed by an authorized Government engineer verifying qualified source status.

Place of performance is within the United States. The NAICS code is 325920, Explosives Manufacturing; the PSC code is 1377, Cartridge and Propellant Actuated Devices and Components. The procurement requires 628 units of MU26 and 997 units of MU27, with delivery and performance completion within 24 months of contract award. These are electrically initiated explosive devices (UN0323, Hazard Class 1.4S) used in fire suppression systems on KC-135, RC-135, and TC-135 military aircraft; failure to source from a qualified supplier could result in aircraft mission degradation or loss of aircraft and crew.

Offerors must submit a Lot Acceptance Test Plan with updated Gross Leak Check procedures at least 90 calendar days prior to testing, subject to Government approval within 30 calendar days of submission. All clauses and Contract Data Requirements List obligations flow down to major and key subcontractors. Proposals must include a Work Breakdown Schedule with milestones and task durations, current delivery schedules for similar items, disclosure of any performance problems or terminations for default within three years, and completion of a Price Matrix with firm fixed unit prices for both contract line items. Proposals are valid for 120 calendar days from solicitation issuance. Proposals must be submitted electronically via DoD SAFE. Evaluation uses a tradeoff methodology weighing Technical (Qualification Acceptance Package and Proposed Schedule), Past Performance (Previous Production and Delivery Schedule and Adverse Past Performance), and Price.

Amendment 0003 extended the deadline from June 30 to July 14, 2026 at 2:00 p.m. CDT. Amendment 0001 updated submission procedures and incorporated the Contract Data Requirements List. Amendment 0004 removed two inadvertently included attachments. Data Other Than Certified Cost or Pricing Data is required for price reasonableness determination.
