- The US Army Joint Munitions & Lethality Life Cycle Management Command (JM&L LCMC) Acquisition Center, Picatinny Arsenal, NJ is conducting a market survey to identify potential sources capable of manufacturing, inspecting and delivering the M739A1 Point Detonating (PD) Fuze. This notice is not a solicitation and does not obligate the Government to issue a solicitation. A solicitation is NOT available at this time. The M739A1 PD Fuze is the Armys preferred, primary fuze for 105mm and 155mm projectiles to address point detonating/delay artillery functions. The M739A1 fuze contains an Impact Delay Module (IDM) assembly. The IDM provides fuze initiation delay based upon the completion of mechanical actions caused by projectile deceleration and will function immediately after passing through the target. This survey is being conducted to evaluate potential offerors of a Firm Fixed Price (FFP) base year contract with three option years. The anticipated ranges for the M739A1 (funded/unfunded) are as follows: FY09 (10K-65K) FY10 (10K-125K) FY11 (10K 145K) and FY12 (10K 250K) This anticipated contract will satisfy the FY09 FY12 production requirements of subject fuzes. The approach will satisfy both the Army, Marine and Air Force buys during these years. The government reserves the right to make multiple awards. This acquisition approach was chosen to support the current fuzing industrial base readiness. The anticipated contract will include First Article Acceptance Testing (FAAT) for the initial production for the M739A1 fuzes. The contractor shall have the engineering capability to perform an analysis of the government furnished Technical Data Package (TDP) for procurement of the M739A1 fuzes. Responses to this survey should represent the contractors best attempt to deliver first production quantities 15 months after contract award. This survey is restricted to the National Technology and Industrial Base (NTIB) for both large & small business concerns.
