Tracer Technologies Inc.

Tracer Technologies Inc., operating under the ECO Division, is a corporate entity registered in SAM.gov since 2002 and located in Somerville, Massachusetts. The company specializes in manufacturing specialized lithium batteries and battery components, with a focus on providing critical power supply solutions for military applications. As a for-profit, Subchapter S Corporation and manufacturer of goods, Tracer Technologies has established itself as a key supplier to the U.S. Department of the Navy, particularly in developing advanced battery technologies for underwater and naval mine countermeasure systems.

The company has been awarded multiple prime federal contracts primarily from the Naval Sea Systems Command (NAVSEA) and the Defense Contract Management Agency, focusing on producing specialized lithium batteries for specific naval programs. These contracts include the MK 132-1 Underwater Program, MK 130 and MK 132 programs, and the MK 62/63 Mod 3 Mine Quickstrike program. The contracts, which were not set aside, have involved delivering critical battery power supplies such as DODIC BWHP batteries and nonmagnetic lithium-thionyl chloride batteries. Notably, Tracer Technologies has been recognized as the sole certified source for these specialized battery components, with contract values ranging from $266,293.32 to $1,768,235.00.

Tracer Technologies holds an indefinite delivery contract (IDC) awarded by NAVSEA with a ceiling value of $1,401,584.58, valid through July 2025. This single-award IDC supports the procurement of Battery Power Supply MK176 Mod 0 for the MK 62/63 Mod 3 Quickstrike Mine program. The original sole source justification for this contract highlighted the company's unique battery cell design and the extensive Navy certification process, which made Tracer Technologies the only approved supplier capable of meeting urgent delivery timelines. Under this IDC, the company has already received a $266,293.32 firm fixed price delivery order to provide initial batteries, with the contract designed to support the Navy's critical mine countermeasure systems' initial operational capability.
