13 -- MPG Grenades and Dispensers

The U.S. Department of State’s Office of Acquisition Management plans to award a sole source contract to Militech International LLC, based in Sterling, VA, for the procurement of electronically fired tear gas intrusion and riot control tear gas grenades along with their dispensers. These items are compatible with the Department's existing equipment, and Militech International is the exclusive distributor, which justifies the sole source procurement under the applicable statutory and regulatory authorities that allow for contracting without full and open competition when only one responsible source exists. The acquisition falls under the NAICS code 339999 and addresses a specialized requirement for equipment uniquely supplied by Militech. The contract, titled "13 -- MPG Grenades and Dispensers" and identified by solicitation number Reference-Number-1069-7Z011, was announced on February 21, 2007. While this notice serves primarily as an informational announcement, interested parties are invited to contact Vincent J. Sanchez at the provided email or phone number for further inquiries. The statutory authority cited is 41 USC 253 c(1), and the regulatory basis is FAR 6.302-1, emphasizing the unique nature of the required goods and the absence of alternatives to satisfy the agency’s needs.
