About this opportunity
The Defense Logistics Agency Land and Maritime has issued a Justification and Approval (J&A) for a sole source contract with SPECTREX for Fire Suppression Bottles used in the Armored Multi-Purpose Vehicle (AMPV) Automatic Fire Extinguishing System (AFES). The contract covers 268 total units (134 base and 134 optional) of NSN 4210-01-700-4780 Fire Extinguisher bottles operating on a 28-volt system with sodium bicarbonate and HFC-227 suppressants. Sole source justification was granted because SPECTREX exclusively owns the proprietary technical data, and reverse engineering would cost approximately $2.635M, which cannot be offset by competitive procurement savings. Comprehensive market research, including a 16-day Sources Sought notice on SAM.gov, yielded no alternative responses, and investigations of potential competitors like Kidde and ANSUL confirmed their systems were incompatible with the AMPV requirements. The contract, awarded on January 15, 2025, will include small business subcontracting requirements unless awarded to a small business itself.
