Description

The U.S. Army is planning a sole-source, five-year Indefinite Delivery/Indefinite Quantity contract with firm-fixed-price delivery orders for production of PA161 and PA103A2 metal containers supporting the 155mm Modular Artillery Charge System M231/M232 and variants. The estimated production quantities are 920,145 PA161 containers and 3,090,060 PA103A2 containers over the contract period. The containers are square-rimmed, six-inch-diameter cylindrical steel shipping and storage containers measuring approximately 31 to 38 inches in length. The effort is a follow-on to the current production contract held by Conco, Inc. and is intended to be awarded on a sole-source basis. The contract will include a $5.2 million minimum guarantee and an estimated maximum value of $586 million. Government-owned Level III technical data packages are available, subject to an executed DD Form 2345 and nondisclosure agreement. This notice is a presolicitation rather than a formal RFP; the Government anticipates issuing the RFP in December 2026 and invites interested sources to submit capability statements demonstrating their technical ability.
