General Dynamics Ordnance And Tactical Systems Inc.

General Dynamics Ordnance and Tactical Systems Inc., operating as the Scranton Division, is a for-profit manufacturer of defense goods headquartered in Scranton, Pennsylvania. As a child entity of General Dynamics Corporation, the company specializes in the design and production of critical military ordnance and tactical systems for the Department of Defense. The organization has been registered with the federal government to receive contract awards since March 2002 and maintains an active SAM.gov registration through May 2026. General Dynamics Ordnance and Tactical Systems Inc. serves as a prime contractor to the federal government and has demonstrated substantial capability in executing large-scale production contracts for military ammunition and artillery components.

The company's recent federal contract work centers on the production and delivery of 155mm M1128 artillery metal parts and related components. Between September 2023 and August 2025, General Dynamics Ordnance and Tactical Systems Inc. received four delivery order awards under the 155mm XM1128 Artillery Metal Parts Assembly master contract, collectively valued at approximately $211.4 million. These delivery orders encompass the manufacture and delivery of M1128 metal parts, projectile metal parts, CFM plugs, and base closures, with completion dates extending through February 2029. The Department of the Army, specifically through the Program Executive Office for Ammunition (PEO Ammunition), has been the funding federal agency for these awards. Notably, multiple task orders have been designated to support critical military aid to Ukraine, reflecting ongoing U.S. military priorities. All four delivery orders were competitively awarded without set-aside designations. General Dynamics Ordnance and Tactical Systems Inc. has leveraged a network of qualified subcontractors including Scranton Sheet Metal Inc., Bearon Manufacturing LLC, Metallus Inc., Luvata Appleton LLC, and Easysoft Corp to fulfill contract requirements and meet production timelines.

General Dynamics Ordnance and Tactical Systems Inc. currently holds a multiple-award indefinite delivery contract (IDC) with a ceiling value of $998.7 million for the manufacture, test, packaging, and delivery of 155mm M1128 artillery metal parts assemblies. This IDC, awarded by the Department of the Army Acquisition Support Center on April 13, 2023, extends through April 12, 2028, and serves as the parent contract vehicle for all recent delivery order awards. The contract supports the production of 155mm high explosive carrier components critical to artillery and ammunition programs. The IDC incorporates no set-aside designations and operates as a multiple-award vehicle, allowing the Department of the Army to issue task orders to multiple contractors as needed. Task orders issued under this vehicle have prioritized the delivery of military equipment in support of the conflict in Ukraine, demonstrating the strategic importance of the company's production capacity to current U.S. foreign policy and defense objectives.
