The Government does not intend to award a contract on the basis of this market survey or otherwise pay for information solicited.

The MK89 Mod-0 Demolition Charge (NSN: 1375-01-069-6672, DODIC: M998) is a sealed, bullet-shaped, plastic-cased charge that contains an explosive charge formed around a plastic case. A detonator hole (cap well) occupies the flat end of the container and there is a void in the rounded end to provide the standoff for the shaped charge. The charge is designed for EOD Render Safe Procedures on munitions. The MK89 uses the explosive filler Comp A-3. This survey is open to both large and small businesses. This survey is being conducted to evaluate the production capability of the existing base for the subject item. Interested companies should respond by providing the Government the following information: a brief summary of the company's capabilities (a description of facilities, personnel, and past manufacturing experience as it relates to the above criteria) and availability, i.e., estimated minimum and maximum monthly production capability (and if manufacturing resources are shared with other item/production lines).

If a respondent does not have adequate resources (technical, manufacturing, personnel, etc.) available, the respondent must be able to demonstrate his ability to obtain those resources in a timely fashion. If a respondent chooses to utilize the services of sub-tier vendors or subcontractors, those vendors or subcontractors must also meet these criteria.
