155mm Modular Artillery for Combat Effectiveness (MACE)
Solicitation # W15QKN26R1C5R
The 155mm Modular Artillery for Combat Effectiveness (MACE) program, solicitation W15QKN26R1C5R, is a Department of Defense effort managed by the Army Contracting Command Rock Island at Picatinny. The government is seeking up to two prototype Other Transaction Agreements (OTAs) under 10 U.S.C. 4022 to develop a manufacturable 155mm cargo-carrying artillery projectile system. The project is divided into two phases: Phase I focuses on projectiles achieving a range of 30 to 35 km, while Phase II targets ranges beyond 35 km. The goal is to expand domestic manufacturing capacity and develop modular payload capabilities to support a Milestone C production decision by the fourth quarter of FY29, with potential follow-on production of up to 10,000 systems per year. The solicitation has undergone several amendments, most notably Amendment 0007, which extended the proposal submission deadline to 1500 EST on November 30, 2026, and updated the Statement of Work to reflect an anticipated award date of March 29, 2027. Proposals are evaluated based on schedule and technical factors, with schedule being the most important for Phase I and technical being the most important for Phase II, alongside cost and price. To ensure security and compliance, offerors must submit specific certifications, including Business Status Certifications and DD2345 Military Critical Technical Data Agreements, to access controlled technical data. The program emphasizes the National Technology and Industrial Base, prioritizing sources within the United States, Canada, Australia, and the United Kingdom.

The Department of Defense is conducting a market survey to identify qualified U.S. or Canadian manufacturers capable of producing 20MM Linked MK244 Mod 0 Armor Piercing Discarding Sabot Cartridges. The anticipated requirement is approximately 800,000 cartridges annually for fiscal years 2009 through 2013, necessitating a production capacity of at least 75,000 cartridges per month. This complex manufacturing process includes machining projectile body metal parts, propellant production, cartridge case priming, and final load, assemble, and pack-out operations. Successful candidates must possess sophisticated industrial capabilities, including specialized heat treat furnaces, metrology laboratories, and an approved ballistic test range equipped with M168 Automatic Guns and MANN barrels for First Article and Lot Acceptance Tests. Due to strict delivery timelines, the selected producer must complete the First Article Acceptance Test within 180 days of award and make the first production delivery within 210 days. Interested firms are required to submit a summary of their facilities, personnel, and past experience, along with potential supplier lists and any delivery constraints.

The purpose of this sources sought/market survey is to identify sources capable of manufacturing 20MM Linked MK244 Mod 0 Armor Piercing Discarding Sabot Cartridges, NSN 1305-01-484-9674, DODIC AA61. The yearly anticipated requirement is approximatel y 800,000 cartridges for FY09 through FY13. Special equipment is required to produce these cartridges. The manufacturing process encompasses, but is not limited to: (1) machining of projectile body metal parts, (2) production of propellant, (3) cartridge case priming and loading w/propellant, and (4) load, assemble, and pack-out (LAP) of the completed cartridges. For each step of the manufacturing process, sophisticated test and measuring equipment are required to ensure the final products comply with Go vernment requirements. Knowledge in ballistic testing, propellant, and process engineering relative to the LAP of these cartridges is essential. An approved ballistic test range, 20mm single shot test (MANN) barrel(s), and an M168 Automatic Gun are requi red to perform First Article and Lot Acceptance Tests on these cartridges. Production support equipment includes material handling systems, tool room equipment, furnaces for heat treat and annealing, metal forming and machining equipment, anodize and phos phate systems, ultrasonic test equipment, and metrology and metallurgy laboratories. Production of these cartridges is complex and requires sophisticated industrial capabilities. Obtaining the critical skills, (i.e. ammunition process/design engineers, s et-up mechanics and operators familiar with the programming and operation of ammunition component sub-assembly production equipment, quality control engineers, ultrasonic technicians, metallurgists, ballistics test personnel, etc) needed to manufacture and provide high quality ammunition in a timely manner may take time. Due to the customers demand for timely deliveries, potential producers must be able to successfully conduct/complete a First Article Acceptance Test within 180 days after award, with the f irst production delivery due within 210 days after award. A respondents production capacity must be sufficient to manufacture an average of 75,000 cartridges per month. Interested U.S./Canadian firms who consider themselves capable of manufacturi ng the MK244 Mod 0 cartridge are invited to indicate their interest by providing the Government a brief summary of their companys capabilities, facilities, personnel, and past manufacturing experience. In addition, it is requested that interested firms i dentify monthly delivery constraints due to long lead-time materials, component availability, or existing contractual obligations; along with a brief summary of potential projectile suppliers and sub-component suppliers. Please provide the requested infor mation to HQ, ASC; ATTN: AMSAS-ACA-F/ Rachel Phelps, 1 Rock Island Arsenal; Rock Island, IL 61299-6500. Responses can also be submitted by email to contact@example.gov. Please respond no later than April 15, 2008 and identify the 20MM MK244 Mod 0 Sources Sought/Market Research as the subject of your response. This market survey is for planning purposes only and shall not be construed as a Request for Proposal or an obligation on the part of the Government. The Government does not intend to award a contract based on this market survey or otherwise pay for information solicited.
