- The purpose of this special notice is to combine information that was erroneously omitted on the May 5, 2011 special notice. Return information is still being requested NLT 30 days from May 5, 2011. The U.S. Army Contracting Command- Rock Island, Rock Island, IL on behalf of the Office of the Project Manager for Combat Ammunition Systems, Picatinny Arsenal, is conducting a market survey for W52P1J-10-R-0182 to identify potential sources that are capable of manufacturing PGU 43B, 44B, and 45B Load, Assembly, and Pack (LAP) Artillery requirements. The PGU-43/B cartridge is a 105mm Inert Cartridge with a supplementary charge that consists of an existing Army HE M1 cartridge. This cartridge is dis-assembled; explosive is removed and replaced with an inert fill, a fuze well liner, and a supplementary charge. It is re-assembled with a cartridge case containing a percussion primer and propelling charge. A nose fuze is also staked to the projectile. The PGU-44/B cartridge is a 105mm cartridge that consists of an Army HE M1 cartridge and a projectile body that is 200% x-ray read and re-assembled with a brass cartridge case. The brass cartridge case contains a percussion primer and propelling Charge. A nose fuze is also staked to the projectile. The PGU-45/B Cartridge is a 105mm cartridge that consists of a newly manufactured steel projectile body which is filled with explosive, a fuze well liner, and a nose plug. The cartridge case contains a percussion primer and propelling Charge. The USG would like feedback from industry on its technical capabilities, lead time, and costs associated with the scenario listed below: The following Government Furnished Material (GFM) will be provided by the USG for the Load Assemble Pack (LAP) of each item: PGU43B NSN: 1315-01-472-1854 : Cartridge, 105mm, HE M1 - NSN 1315-00-028-4857, P/N 9211611 M739A1 Fuze - NSN: 1390-01-132-7481, P/N 9345332 PA-71/A Fiber Container - NSN 8140-01-456-8878, P/N 9825005 Wire bound Container - NSN 8140-01-269-9175, P/N 9278402 PGU 44B NSN: 1315-01-515-9269: Cartridge, 105mm, HE M1 - NSN 1315-00-028-4857, P/N 9211611 PA-71/A Fiber Container - NSN 8140-01-456-8878, P/N 9825005 Wire bound Container - NSN 8140-01-269-9175, P/N 9278402 PGU45B NSN: 1315-01-514-8595: PA-71/A Fiber Container - NSN 8140-01-456-8878, P/N 9825005 Wire bound Container - NSN 8140-01-269-9175, P/N 9278402 All other material required for the LAP of the PGU is Contractor Furnished Material (CFM). The USG anticipates it will compete within the National Industrial Technology Base (NITB). It is anticipated that the USG will use a Lowest Priced Technically Acceptable (LPTA) strategy to award multiple Firm Fixed Price Indefinite Delivery/Indefinite Quantity (IDIQ) type contracts. Each IDIQ contract will contain five ordering periods with multiple ordering ranges, for purposes of this market survey the most probable order quantity is 25,000 of each item per ordering period. Contractors awarded IDIQ contracts will compete for future Delivery Orders as requirements arise. Each item will be evaluated separately from each other. Contractors only need to submit information for items in which they are interested. To be able to LAP the PGU 43B and 44B contractors are required to possess or have the ability to obtain at award the safety clearances to handle an explosive/hazardous classification of 1.2E (43B) and 1.1E (44B, and 45B). Contractors who are interested in these requirements should provide the USG a summary of their company's current safety clearances or its ability to obtain them. In addition, the summary should include brief descriptions on the contractor's capabilities to include: parent organizations, name/address/point of contact identification/email address, capabilities, past experience as a manufacturer, monthly production capacity and/or potential capacity, possible partnering/teaming arrangements, or if the company is a large or small business and CAGE Code. Lastly, the summary shall include a rough order of magnitude (ROM) price for producing 25,000 of each item for each of the production scenario detailed above. This market survey is for planning purposes only and shall not be construed as a request for proposal or as an obligation on the part of the USG. The USG will not reimburse any respondent for any effort or information submitted in response to this sources sought. All information submitted will be considered proprietary and will not be released outside the USG. Information should be provided via electronic mail to Chet Jacks, chet.a.jacks.civ@mail.mil no later than 30 days from the May 5, 2011 publication. If a formal solicitation is generated at a later date, a solicitation notice will be published. No award will be made as a result of this market survey.
