About this opportunity
The Defense Logistics Agency Land and Maritime (DLA-WRN) issued a Justification and Approval for a sole source contract to procure seven-pound Halon fire extinguishers (NSN 4210-01-512-7180) used in M992A2 Field Artillery Ammunition Support Vehicles. Kidde Technologies, Inc. (CAGE 05BU0) was awarded contract SPRDL1-26-C-0023 as the only responsible source capable of supplying this specialized equipment, as it is the sole entity that has developed, tested, and obtained government approval for this specific fire extinguisher application. The justification for sole source procurement is based on the absence of alternative commercial fire extinguishers meeting required performance specifications, as confirmed through market research conducted in June 2024 and a 45-day Sources Sought notice that generated no competing responses. The contract calls for a base quantity of 281 units with an option for an additional 281 units, totaling 562 units under a firm-fixed-price arrangement. The Government's inability to develop competitive alternatives is supported by an estimated reverse engineering cost of $1.75 million with a payback period exceeding one decade, making competition economically impractical. The incumbent contract, awarded in April 2019, was valued at $1,155,697.32, providing a reference point for anticipated award values on this continuation contract.
