Alpha Dyno Nobel

Alpha Dyno Nobel, doing business as Alpha Explosives, is a corporate entity that provides explosives and related materials to U.S. federal government agencies.

Alpha Explosives has received numerous prime federal contract awards to supply explosives, detonators, initiators, and other ordnance items in support of programs across the Departments of Defense, Interior, and Agriculture. These include delivery orders from Naval Sea Systems Command and Naval Air Systems Command to provide C4 charges, nonel starters, and commercial explosives for the Navy's ordnance handling and weapons testing activities. Alpha Explosives has also been awarded contracts by the National Park Service's Pacific West Region to supply explosives used in demolition projects and trail maintenance within National Parks in California. Additionally, the company has provided explosives to the Forest Service for trail construction under the Pacific Southwest Region. No set-aside designations were associated with the majority of these awards.

Alpha Explosives holds an Indefinite Delivery Contract from Naval Sea Systems Command for the procurement of Blastex 2-1/2 x 16 inch explosives. The 5-year IDC for $1 million has no set-aside designation and allows Naval Sea Systems Command to rapidly order these specific explosive products through February 2024. As the Navy's shipbuilding and fleet maintenance acquisition organization, the Blastex explosives will likely serve ordnance handling and weapons system testing functions.
