About this opportunity

The Department of the Army Contracting Command is seeking sources for 14X turret mounts designed to support 7.62mm PKM family light machine guns, specifically for installation on M1235A4 w/OGPK MAXXPRO vehicles. The technical requirements for these mounts include a 200-round ammunition can holder, a modular cradle design with over 10 configuration variants, and NATO G3 cone pintle compatibility. Key specifications involve a Universal Pintle Adapter for vehicle turret integration, quick installation/removal capabilities, and a U.S. standard Traverse and Elevation mechanism adapter bracket. Potential vendors must submit their responses by December 3, 2024, at 2:00 PM CST, including business information, socioeconomic status, and a one-page capabilities statement specific to the requirement. Responses will be evaluated based on the vendor's ability to meet the detailed technical specifications outlined in the PKM_Mount_Specs.pdf document.

The procurement opportunity is currently not set aside for any specific small business category, though the government may elect to do so if at least two qualified small businesses respond. Small businesses across all socioeconomic categories (8(a), SDB, HUBZone, SDVOSB, WOSB) are encouraged to participate. The contract falls under NAICS category 332994 for Small Arms, Ordnance, and Ordnance Accessories Manufacturing, with a Product Service Code of 1367 for Tactical Sets, Kits, and Outfits. No specific award value or budget range is currently disclosed, and no funds are currently available for the acquisition. The solicitation suggests this is a preliminary market research phase to identify potential manufacturers capable of producing the specialized turret mounts with the precise technical specifications required by the U.S. Army.
