About the company
Schuetzen Powder Energetics, Inc., a self-certified small disadvantaged business and child entity of Petro-Explo Inc., supplies ammunition propellant powder to the Department of the Army exclusively through subcontracts with General Dynamics Ordnance and Tactical Systems, Inc. The company is headquartered in Arlington, Texas and operates as a for-profit manufacturer of goods. Its parent company, Petro-Explo Inc., is a minority-owned (Hispanic American-owned) manufacturer that also holds federal contracting relationships.
Schuetzen's federal footprint is narrow and recent. All three awards are subcontract deliveries of MIL-P-223-C1 black propellant powder in support of the M119A2 artillery program, issued under General Dynamics' Indefinite Delivery Contract W15QKN23D0054. The three task orders span December 2024 through January 2026, with a combined value of $616 thousand obligated. The December 2024 award revised delivery schedules for Lots 4 and 5; the December 2025 and January 2026 awards represent repeat deliveries of propelling bag charges. All awards route through the Department of the Army Acquisition Support Center PEO Ammunition, indicating single-customer, single-prime concentration in an ammunition supply chain.
Activity is minimal but consistent — one award per year across 2024, 2025, and 2026. The vendor holds no prime contract vehicles and does not compete in full-and-open or set-aside categories; Schuetzen operates solely as a specialty ammunition propellant supplier to a single prime contractor on a single Army contract vehicle. This positioning reflects the vendor's narrow manufacturing focus on military explosives and propellant chemistry rather than broad federal services. Decision-relevance for competitive intelligence is low unless the reader competes for ammunition propellant supply or manages General Dynamics subcontractor relationships.
