- Description
- Marine Corps Systems Command (MARCORSYSCOM) intends to award a new contract to link and package 30mm PGU-15/B Target Practice (TP) ammunition currently held as Expeditionary Fighting Vehicle (EFV) 30mm PGU-15/B TP assets. MARCORSYSCOM will issue a competitive solicitation resulting in a three (3) year IDIQ, firm fixed price contract award. The PGU-15/B TP cartridge is used on the MK-44, 30mm Gun System that is currently on the EFV. The Program Manager Advanced Amphibious Assault (PM AAA) owns PGU-15/B cartridges, but they are in the Air Forces configuration (NSN 1305-01-093-3338) and are unlinked. PM AAA has a requirement to reconfigure these rounds for use in the EFVs Gun System. The contractor will be required to procure MK-15 ammunition links, M592 metal cans, foam inserts and associated packaging material required to package this ammunition in accordance with Automated Data List (ADL) 53711-7624864, required for Navy and Marine Corps 30mm ammunition. Government owned ammunition, currently packaged in a configuration useable only for A-10 aircraft, will be provided to the manufacturer as Government Furnished Material (GFM). The contractor will be required to de-tube the ammunition (as it comes in the Air Forces A-10 packaging configuration), inspect the ammunition to ensure serviceability, and then place the ammunition into MK-15 links. The linked ammunition will then be placed in the foam protective cushioning and then into a M592 metal can (two 15-round belts will be placed into each can). The 30-round packed configuration will be palletized in accordance with ADL 53711-7624864. The contractor will be authorized to use the standard 40 x 48 wooden pallet rather than the MK3 metal pallet to reduce the cost of this project. The applicable National Stock Number (NSN) for the reconfigured ammunition to be delivered is 1305-01-525-8642, Ctg, 30mm PGU-15/B Linked, DODIC AA94. The proposed contract action is for supplies for which the Government intends to solicit and negotiate by full and open competition under authority of FAR Part 15. This notice expires 3 August 2008, and is not a request for competitive proposals. A solicitation for this requirement will be issued through NECO. It is anticipated that the solicitation will be issued 4 August 2008. Written questions will be taken once the solicitation is issued. No questions will be accepted before that time or in response to this notice.
