About this opportunity
The Department of the Army Materiel Command's Army Contracting Command at Aberdeen Proving Ground is conducting a Request for Information (RFI) to assess industry capabilities for manufacturing Screening Obscuration Modules (SOMs). These modules are miniaturized obscuration generating systems designed to produce visual degradation effects by injecting fog oil or diesel into a mini turbine engine's hot exhaust stream. The RFI seeks unclassified responses from potential manufacturers, with submissions limited to 5 pages and due by March 3, 2025, at 5 p.m. EDT. Interested firms must provide comprehensive company information, business size status, and demonstrate expertise in obscuration equipment manufacturing. Responses should address the capability to produce 100-500 SOMs using a Government-Furnished Technical Data Package, with the system capable of generating obscurant clouds across 204 meters in length and up to 12 meters in height for 12 minutes without resupply.
This market research effort is not a formal solicitation and will not provide compensation for responses. The contract would have a performance period of 24-48 months and requires a DD Form 254 Contract Security Classification Specification. The procurement falls under NAICS category 333618 (Other Engine Equipment Manufacturing) and PSC category 2895 (Miscellaneous Engines and Components). No specific set-aside has been designated for this opportunity, indicating it is open to all qualified vendors. The SOM system, as depicted in accompanying documentation, consists of a tan-colored main unit connected to a green container, suggesting a compact and portable design for military obscuration purposes. While no specific award value is mentioned, the requirement for 100-500 units indicates a potentially significant manufacturing contract for the selected vendor.
