Patriot Product LLC bullet traps

The Oregon Military Department, specifically for Clatsop County's Camp Rilea Training Center, is pursuing a sole-source procurement for Patriot Product LLC bullet trap upgrade components. The procurement involves upgrading 22 existing older model bullet traps to be compatible with current 5.56mm EPR (Enhanced Penetrator Round) Army issue ammunition. The specific upgrades require a BT3048-MG Upgrade kit, replacement impact plates, upgrade support quadrants, and upgrade fragment collection trays. This procurement is being conducted under Oregon Revised Statute 279B.075 and Oregon Administrative Rule 125-247-0275, with a strict public notice and protest period. Written protests must be submitted by 5:00 PM Pacific Time on August 15, 2025, via email to sam.a.goff@omd.oregon.gov, with specific requirements including business name, authorized representative contact information, detailed legal and factual grounds, potential harm description, and requested relief.

The procurement is a sole-source determination, meaning only Patriot Products LLC can provide these specific upgrade components, as they are the exclusive manufacturer with proprietary rights and no authorized distributors. No specific set-aside designations for disadvantaged enterprises were mentioned in the documentation. The total estimated contract value is $57,046.00, with the procurement justified under Oregon Administrative Rule 125-246-0170(2)(c)(H). The justification emphasizes cost-effectiveness, noting that competitive bidding would require purchasing an entirely new system, which would be more expensive. The goods and services are not available through standard state procurement channels like DAS statewide price agreements, inmate labor, surplus, or Oregon Forward Program Contractors. The procurement is specifically for upgrading existing infrastructure to meet current Army safety requirements for ammunition usage at the Camp Rilea Training Center shoot house.
