An estimated 250 2SLGG shots will be needed over the next 5 years to accomplish research objectives. Each 2SLGG shot requires up to, but not limited to, 10 consumable parts. Several of the consumable components are designed to tight tolerances and to withstand the elevated pressures of the dynamic event. Provide new components for the ERDC gun systems. The firing of both the IBPG and the 2SLGG systems result in wear as a part of their normal operation. Components such as barrels, breach chambers, and firing pins will need to be periodically replaced. Provide technical support in the form of calls for incidental installation.� The ERDC intends to issue an award to Physics Applications, Inc. (PAI) (CAGE Code: 2T434)�on a sole source basis.� PAI is the sole manufacturer and distributer of the IBPG and the 2SLGG and is the only authorized vendor for the consumables and components required for operation of the systems. PAI�s primary business is the design and fabrication of ballistic research launchers, support equipment and instrumentation.
