The 120mm M830A1 is used in the 120mm, M256 smooth bore tank cannon and is a fin-stabilized round with a discarding sabot. The primary focus of the recapitalization program is to disassemble the cartridge, replace the combustible cartridge case and the case base, and use epoxy adhesive to bond the new cartridge case to the case adapter. Recapitalization will also include purchase of new combustible cases and case bases, propellant inspection for stability and moisture content, remarking with an additional suffix, as well as the addition of a solar cover to the pallet. The contractor will be required to receive, store and process approximately 470 pallets of ammunition. Net Explosive Weight and Hazard Class for an M830A1 Cartridge are 8.102 kg/17.86 LB and 1.2.1.E. Specifications: The M830A1 Cartridge will be recapitalized to meet the requirements of the MIL-C-70983A. Planned Acquisition: A Cost Plus Fixed-Fee (CPFF) effort is contemplated for this acquisition. The Government anticipates making one (1) award in 1QFY17. Deliveries will be required within seventeen (17) months after contract award. Submission Information: THIS IS NOT A SOLICITATION AND DOES NOT OBLIGATE THE GOVERNMENT TO ISSUE A SOLICITATION.
