- Description
- The U.S. Army TACOM-ARDEC intends to award on a small business set-aside competitive basis a Multiple Award Task Order Type Contract for Prototype/ Production Fabrication in Support of TACOM-ARDEC Ammunition and Weapon System Programs. In order that the Government receives quality products in a timely manner, face-to-face contact between the government design engineer(s) and the contractor's manufacturing/assembly technicians must be encouraged and maintained. This can be accomplished in a way which is mutually beneficial to the government and the contractor. To accomplish this objective, the contractor for this proposaled contract must be located within 150-mile radius of Picatinny Arsenal. The objective of the Statement of Work (SOW)is to provide a means by which the TACOM-ARDEC Producibility for Production Readiness Competency Division, Prototype Hardware Fabrication Office can award a Task Order Contract to obtain manufacturing support (machining, fabrication, assembly, research and development for ammunition and weapon systems. Items/ prototype to be produced may be "specialty in nature" such as mechanisms, experimental designs and unique weapon hardware. (NOTE: This is not a hazardous item/hazardous material contract. The contractor will have full responsibility for the particular Task which may include machining, assembly and special processes (coatings/painting). If in-house capability is not available for particular operations the contractor will identify (sub- contractors) out-source operations to complete the requirement. The out- source operations will be at a minimum compared to in-house capabilities. The contractor will be the Government's signle point of contact for each Task Order. Typical manufacturing lot sizes may be from (but not limited to) 1 to 200 units. Bench test hardware and unique items may require single unit fabrication. The contractor shall possess an in-house engineering and design capability for review/revision of drawings to enhance item producibility. The contractor shall have an in-house quality control/inspection capability to insure the item meets the dimensional and characteristic requirements. This requirement encompasses a broad range of munition and weapon commodities used by the United States Armed Forces. In support of various developmental programs, a "vehicle", (Task Order Contract), is required to obtain machine shop services to augment the Prototype Hardware Fabrication Facility at ARDEC. Machine shop services include prototype (single unit) manufacturing and production manufacturing. POC for this action is Cathy Kallistros, ckallis@pica.army.mil, 973-724-5016. NOTE 25
