- Description
- The U.S. Army,�Army Contracting Command Picatinny, on behalf of the Project Manager Soldier Lethality (PM SL), located at Picatinny Arsenal, NJ intends to modify contract W15QKN-20-D-0044 with Knight�s Armament Company to increase the maximum total contract dollar amount due to an underestimate of requirements in the pre-solicitation stage.

Previous market research conducted prior to award of the contractor indicated that potential production items from sources other than Knight�s Armament Company would require qualifying their design at their expense, resulting in substantial duplication of cost that would not be recovered through competition.
