5.56mm NATO Ammunition Supply

The contract calls for the supply of 1,000-round lots of 5.56mm NATO ammunition, specifically 55 grain full metal jacket rounds, intended exclusively for tactical law enforcement operations. The requirements emphasize reliability and performance under demanding field conditions, with all lots expected to meet NATO specifications for consistency, safety, and interoperability with standard military and law enforcement firearms. The submission deadline is July 15, 2026, and the contract is structured as a subcontract under the NAICS code 332992, which classifies it under other fabricated metal product manufacturing, indicating the focus is on finished ammunition production rather than primary metal processing. The solicitation is managed by the District Attorney’s office in California, with no specific city or zip provided for the place of performance or point of contact, suggesting coordination may be handled at a state or regional level. There is no set-aside designation, meaning all eligible vendors may compete without restrictions based on business size or ownership category. The project is publicly accessible through a procurement portal, and while no additional details about packaging, delivery schedules, or testing protocols are included in the metadata, compliance with federal and state ammunition regulations is assumed as a baseline condition. Vendors must be prepared to demonstrate production capacity, quality assurance processes, and readiness to fulfill the order by the required timeline.
