A -- Additional Support to MANPACK ACTD Demo 2

The contract involves the development, integration, testing, and support of additional circuit cards for the MANPACK ACTD Demo 2 under the USSOCOM requirements. The work is an extension of a previous contract (H92222-04-C-0006) initially awarded to Herrick Technology Laboratories, Inc. through the SBIR Program. Since the Government does not hold data rights or drawings related to the prior work and only Herrick Technology Laboratories possesses the necessary knowledge, the new services must be performed by this original contractor. The contract value is below the simplified acquisition threshold, and for administrative efficiency, the additional tasks will be incorporated as a modification to the existing agreement. The contract is managed by the Department of Defense’s USSOCOM office located in Tampa, Florida, with Charles Bright serving as the Contracting Officer. The NAICS code for this contract is 541511, indicating that it falls under custom computer programming services. This requirement underscores the unique technical expertise held by Herrick Technology Laboratories, necessitating their exclusive involvement in continued support and development efforts for the MANPACK ACTD Demo 2 project.
