A total of four M231 MACS are packed per PA161 container while five M232A2 MACS are packed per PA103A2 container. These containers were developed to protect the MACS Charges throughout the Army's stringent logistic environments and have design features that improve the insensitive munitions characteristics for the MACS system. To be considered a capable source for this effort, all interested sources must submit the following information: a) Provide evidence of capabilities including an ability to produce a combined total of the PA161 and PA103A2 Metal Containers at a production rate of approximately 15,600 units per month and any capability to surge to 54,600 per month; b) Past manufacturing experience with PA161 and PA103A2 Metal Containers within the last ten years; c) Description of facilities, personnel (numbers, experience, specialized skill sets), key raw material sources, and environmental compliance as it relates to the above production efforts; d) Provide a summary and evidence of in-house Quality Assurance System(s) in order to support this production program; e) A general understanding of United States Government container testing requirements; f) Provide 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).
