Requests for this information must be submitted through the designated contract specialist or contracting officer at the Army Contracting Command – Picatinny Arsenal. The contract is associated with NAICS code 332994, indicating a focus on manufacturing (likely weapons components or related technologies). Communication for inquiries and requests is handled by Corey Woodson, Contract Specialist, and Travis James, Contracting Officer, both based in Picatinny Arsenal, New Jersey. This initiative reflects the Army’s continued efforts to engage industry partners in advancing the squad weapon systems with improved lethality and technology refinements.
