Cornerstone was architected to create a broad-based, flexible and enduring public-private consortium focused on strategic strengthening of the U.S. Manufacturing and Defense Industrial Base and provide a strong complement to the mandates in Presidential Executive Order 13806. ACC-RI, on behalf of CCDC CBC and PM Maneuver Ammunition Systems, intends to issue a competitive Cornerstone Initiative Request (CIR) for 7.62mm Lightweight Small Caliber Ammunition on or after 10 September 2020, with an estimated closing date of 30 calendar days after issuance. The CIR for 7.62mm Lightweight Small Caliber Ammunition is restricted to Cornerstone consortium members. The CIR will solicit proposals for one (1) expenditure-based OTA with incremental payments made upon completion of specific milestones. Period of performance will be 18 months. A non-competitive follow-on production OT may be awarded following a successful prototype. The objective of this effort is to optimize the design and production capability of 7.62mm LSCA cartridge case technologies. The CIR for 7.62 Lightweight Small Caliber Ammunition will be communicated to the Cornerstone consortium and companies with pending applications via email. Entities are required to have begun the membership process for their proposal to be reviewed.
