- Description
- The U.S. Army Project Manager for Close Combat Systems (PM-CCS) in conjunction with the U.S. Army Research, Development, and Engineering Command, Armament Research, Development, and Engineering Center (RDECOM-ARDEC), intends to issue a Letter of Contemplation for the production of approximately 650 Bunker Defeat Munition (BDM) and 30 Field Handling Trainers (FHT). The Government intends to fulfill this requirement via a modification to the existing Sole Source, Firm Fixed Price (FFP), Indefinite Delivery, Indefinite Quantity (IDIQ) contract, W15QKN-08-D-0422, with Nammo Talley Inc. The BDM is an 83mm hand-held, single shot, disposable, stand-alone, direct fire Shoulder Launched munition designed to defeat earth and timber bunkers. It is man-portable, self-contained, air-jumpable, air-deliverable (by pallet), and contains an interface for attachment of various night vision and aiming devices. The BDM shall not exceed 17 lbs, must be compact (not to exceed 40 inches), must be simple to operate, and provide the capability to engage targets effectively at a range of 15 meters to 250 meters (Threshold)/ 300 meters (Objective). The BDM provides Warfighters in all services the capability to defeat the protective cover provided by masonry structures, earthen bunkers and field fortifications. Specifically designed for the close fight on urban and complex terrain, the BDM is quickly trained and employed in a manner similar to the AT4 and has proven successful in the Global War On Terror (GWOT). As a stand-alone, self-contained munition, the BDM requires no maintenance, nor dependence on other systems; however, its ease of use and lethality greatly enhances combat effectiveness. Specifications, plans, or drawings are not available. This acquisition is for supplies for which the Government does not possess complete, unrestrictive data; therefore, the Government intends to award a Sole Source, FFP, delivery order to Nammo Talley Inc. under the authority of 10 USC 2304(c)(1), Only One Responsible Source as implemented by FAR 6.302-1(a)(2)(ii)(A) & (B), Only One Responsible Source and no other supplies or services will satisfy agency requirements. All responsible sources may submit a capability statement to the Government within 15 days of this notice. THIS NOTICE DOES NOT CONSTITUTE A REQUEST FOR PROPOSAL (RFP) and is not to be construed as a commitment by the U. S. Government. Responses to this announcement are not proposals and cannot be accepted by the Government to form a binding contract. The Point of Contact for this action is Ms. Tiffany Nosti, Contract Specialist, ACC-NJ-CC, tiffany.n.nosti.civ@mail.mil. Phone inquiries will not be accepted.
