- Description
- The Army Contracting Command-New Jersey (ACC-NJ) and the office of the Project Manager for Maneuver Ammunition Systems (PM-MAS) and the Armament, Development and Engineering Center (ARDEC) at Picatinny Arsenal, NJ are currently seeking potential sources for the manufacture and delivery of metal pallet adapter trays. The pallet adapter is utilized to configure/unitize metal M2A2 ammunition containers on a wood pallet in a series of horizontal layers. The pallet adapter is 0.050 inch thickness sheet-metal with approximate total dimensions of 36 inches by 49 inches. Each pallet tray has bent and rolled edges, multiple cutouts and stamped embossments to accommodate the fitting and stacking of the ammunition containers. The surface finish may be powder-coated, e-coated or alkyd painted (in accordance with the corresponding drawings) and is forest green in color. The production of the pallet tray requires potential producers to have manufacturing capabilities of metal cutting/shearing, sheet metal forming, drilling and punch press capabilities, degreasing/cleaning and finishing painting/powder coating. Specifications: The pallet adapter will be purchased to a Government owned Technical Data Package (TDP). Applicable drawings include: 13036771 (Tray, Adapter, M2A2), 12988172 (Coatings, High Performance, for Ammunition Containers), 9347108 (Paint, for Ammunition Containers). Acquisition Approach: The acquisition timeframe for this effort shall be from FY16-FY20 for a Firm Fixed Price (FFP) requirement. Submission Information: All responsible interested sources should submit their capabilities/qualification data. All potential producers are requested to submit a capability statement, which reflects their manufacturing capabilities, specialized equipment, critical skills, etc. Potential producers are required to submit a rough order of magnitude (ROM) for the following yearly production quantity ranges: 100-500 units, 501-1000 units, and 1001-1500 units. For responses where an investment in tooling may be required prior to production, the potential producer should also submit an estimate for the total tooling cost, as well as the tool-life expectancy (number of units the tool is capable of producing.). Interested firms that can meet all the requirements set forth above are requested to submit responses with clear and convincing documentation via email to the point of contact listed. Submittal of information is requested via electronic mail only, no later than 30 days from the date of this notice. All responses should be submitted to: Mr. William Labance, Contract Specialist, phone number: 973-724-6673 and email: william.j.labance.civ@mail.mil. All information is to be submitted at no cost or obligation to the Government, as this notice is submitted for planning purposes only. Please include company name, address, telephone number, email address, technical point of contact, and company size (please specify as either a Large Business, Foreign-Owned Business, Small Business, Small Disadvantaged Business, 8(a) concern, Woman-Owned Small Business, Historically Underutilized Business Zone concern, Veteran-Owned Small Business, or Service-Disabled Small Business). Brochures/literature may be attached to the e-mail submission. *Please note: This is a Request for Information only and it is not a pre-solicitation notice.
