Ludwig Feuerschutz GMBH

Ludwig Feuerschutz GMBH, a German-based for-profit limited liability partnership headquartered in Bindlach, Germany, supplies firefighting and emergency response equipment to the U.S. Department of the Army as a prime contractor on purchase orders and definitive contracts, competing exclusively in full-and-open procurements with no set-aside designation. The company has held a SAM registration since 2005 and operates entirely as a prime vendor — 53 consecutive awards, all direct to the Army.

Ludwig Feuerschutz's customer base is singularly concentrated on the U.S. Army's European operations. The Department of the Army Installation Management Command (IMCOM) Europe Region accounts for 39 of 53 awards and $1.1 million of the $1.3 million combined potential value — 85% of the portfolio. The remaining awards split among the Department of the Army Materiel Command Expeditionary Contracting Command Regional Contracting Office Bavaria 409th CSB (9 awards), the Department of the Army headquarters (4 awards, $133 thousand), and IMCOM headquarters (1 award, $107 thousand). All work is performed in Germany to support U.S. military fire departments and emergency response operations at Army installations across the European theater.

Capability portfolio centers on self-contained breathing apparatus (SCBA) systems, hydraulic rescue equipment, firefighting protective gear, fire pumps, and emergency power generation. Recent named awards include a $106.9 thousand purchase order for SCBA equipment (August 2026, Army headquarters), a $45.2 thousand definitive contract for life-cycle SCBA replacement at U.S. Army Garrison Stuttgart (September 2025, IMCOM Europe), a $74.2 thousand purchase order for hydraulic rescue equipment (September 2024, IMCOM Europe), a $158.1 thousand purchase order for Draeger PSS 5000 DP SCBA systems (September 2022, IMCOM Europe), and an $86.1 thousand purchase order for firefighter turnout coats (September 2022, IMCOM Europe). Top NAICS categories by award count are Fire Protection (16 awards) and Surgical Appliance and Supplies Manufacturing (5 awards); top PSC categories are Safety and Rescue Equipment (22 awards) and Fire Fighting Equipment (10 awards).

Activity has been sparse and episodic over the past five years — one award in 2023 and 2024, three in 2025, one in 2026 — following a two-award baseline in 2022. Combined obligated dollars ($1.4 million) exceed combined potential value, indicating that invoiced performance has met or exceeded contract ceilings across the portfolio. The vendor carries no subcontracting footprint; all 53 awards are prime work.
