SIG Sauer Inc.

SIG Sauer Inc., a for-profit manufacturer of firearms, ammunition, optics, and tactical equipment headquartered in Newington, New Hampshire, operates as an unrestricted prime contractor across more than 2,100 federal awards spanning $6.96 billion in combined potential value, competing on a full-and-open basis with no set-aside designations across its entire federal footprint. The company delivers concrete capabilities in small arms manufacturing (P320 and XM7 semiautomatic and automatic rifles), precision ammunition production (6.8mm general-purpose and specialty cartridges for the Next Generation Squad Weapon program), optical systems (Romeo 4T red dot sights, Kilo6K HD binoculars), and tactical components (suppressors, barrels, magazines, firing assemblies, and weapon system spares).

Customer concentration is extreme and defense-heavy. The Army's Program Executive Office Soldier dominates SIG Sauer's portfolio, accounting for 97 awards worth $5.57 billion (80% of the vendor's combined potential value), while PEO Ammunition trails at 53 awards worth $812.8 million (12% of combined potential value). Together, the two Army programs anchor 95% of SCI-tracked portfolio dollars. U.S. Special Operations Command, the Department of Veterans Affairs, Immigration and Customs Enforcement, and the Defense Logistics Agency's Land and Maritime organization round out the top five customers. The top five customers account for 41% of awards by count but represent the overwhelming majority of dollar value.

SIG Sauer holds two dominant indefinite delivery vehicles. The parent IDC W15QKN22D0008 (Army PEO Soldier) has generated 240 task orders worth $952.1 million, anchoring the Next Generation Squad Weapon rifle system modernization program. A second vehicle, W15QKN17D0016, has generated 412 task orders worth $103.7 million. SIG Sauer also operates a $4.44 million single-award Blanket Purchase Agreement with the Veterans Affairs Strategic Acquisition Center Frederick for 9mm P320 pistols, with activity distributed across 15 Veterans Integrated Service Networks, and smaller BPA vehicles with Immigration and Customs Enforcement for optics and with the Federal Law Enforcement Training Center for commercial lead training ammunition ($2.5 million ceiling, through February 2027).

Activity has accelerated in recent years: 159 awards in 2022, declining to 143 in 2024, then expanding sharply to 237 in 2025 and 187 through September 2026. Within the next 24 months, 105 awards with combined potential value of $530.2 million reach ultimate completion, creating significant recompete exposure concentrated in large PEO Soldier and PEO Ammunition deliveries.

Recent representative work illustrates the portfolio's scale and scope. A $59.5 million delivery order from PEO Soldier (April 29, 2026) procured NGSW carbines with firm fixed-price completion by February 2027. A $102.99 million PEO Ammunition order (April 15, 2026) covered XM1192 blank linked and carton ammunition, and 6.8mm XM1188 reduced-range ammunition, completing September 2027. A $95.88 million PEO Ammunition order (December 19, 2025) for 6.8mm general-purpose cartridges and linked ammunition extends through September 2027. Smaller-scale examples include a $1.38 million BPA call from Immigration and Customs Enforcement (February 24, 2026) for Romeo 4T red dot optics, a $1.42 million Naval Sea Systems Command purchase order for SIG Sauer 4023 firearms (February 26, 2026), and a $772,258 TACOM delivery order for spares and accessories (June 25, 2026). The Veterans Affairs portfolio is characterized by routine recurring BPA calls ranging from $708 to $75,479 across multiple Veterans Integrated Service Networks for P320 semiautomatic pistols.

SCI-reportable federal service-contract invoicing totaled $517 thousand across FY2022–FY2025, reflecting minimal service-contract activity above the $150,000 threshold; the vast majority of SIG Sauer's federal revenue flows through product procurement (goods and ammunition manufacturing) and delivery orders against firm fixed-price IDVs. The vendor's federal footprint is a pure manufacturing and supply operation, not a services business. Across the small SCI dataset, government-paid median hourly rates run around $181.99/hr, with rates spanning $181–$183/hr across the narrow range, suggesting minimal labor content on SCI-reportable work. The vendor operates essentially as an internal delivery team with no subcontractor engagement on its prime contracts — 100% of awards are prime contracts with zero subcontract shares, and SCI records show 0% sub-hours share.

SIG Sauer maintains a secondary presence as a minor subcontractor. Two sub-awards appear in the source: one to Booz Allen Hamilton on an EDITS (Engineering Development Integration and Technology-Based Solutions) hardware components contract, and one to ManTech TSG-2 Joint Venture for expeditionary weapon systems development supporting U.S. Special Operations Command and Naval Surface Warfare Center Crane ammunition work. These represent incidental sub-tier engagement rather than a material subcontracting practice.

The vendor's award concentration by product category reinforces small arms and ordnance dominance: 1,761 awards fall under Small Arms, Ordnance, and Ordnance Accessories Manufacturing (NAICS 332996); 82 awards under Small Arms Ammunition Manufacturing (332992); 60 awards under Guns Over 30Mm Up To 75Mm; and 93 under Miscellaneous Weapons. By federal product service code, 1,471 awards are tagged Guns Through 30Mm, 62 for Ammunition Through 30Mm, and 93 for Miscellaneous Weapons, confirming the portfolio's orientation toward rifles, pistols, and supporting ammunition systems rather than services, systems integration, or tactical support.
