Rowley Training Center in Laurel, Maryland. This procurement, solicited under number 70US0926R70093723, is a total small business set-aside under FAR 19.5 and falls under NAICS code 332992, restricted to small business concerns. The contract will encompass a base period plus four option years, providing ammunition in specified lot sizes per case—1,000 rounds per case for 9mm variants and 900 rounds per case for 5.56mm variants—including blank, loud blank, marking, and non-marking rounds compatible with UTM systems. All ammunition must be newly manufactured, with propellants and primers produced within the last 12 months and no round exceeding two years from date of manufacture; shell cases must be virgin brass or of higher quality, with no reloaded or used cases permitted. Technical specifications require compliance with ANSI and SAAMI industry standards, including chamber pressure limits, and mandate the submission of a Material Safety Data Sheet verifying non-toxic components and by-products. A rigorous evaluation process prioritizes technical acceptability as a pass/fail gate, followed by price and past performance in a best value determination, with up to two products potentially awarded per CLIN. Each proposal must include separate technical and price components, accompanied by 1,000 rounds of each requested type, clearly marked with the offeror’s name, solicitation number, lot number, and CLIN. Packaging and labeling must conform to Federal Standard 123, including nomenclature, quantity, manufacturer name, lot and contract numbers, and delivery order numbers, with a detailed packing list accompanying every shipment. Final inspection and acceptance occur exclusively at the Laurel training center, conducted by the Secret Service, ensuring all rounds meet exacting safety, accuracy, and consistency standards before acceptance.

Every round requires 100% hand inspection prior to packaging, with strict tolerances on defects including corrosion, burrs, dents, and foreign contaminants.
