1356 - 1356-01-106-5985; WW98; Initiating Propellant; DWG: 2508738 REV AA

The Navy seeks a single‑award, firm‑fixed‑price IDIQ contract (3‑year, 599‑unit minimum, 4,200‑unit maximum) to produce an initiating propellant explosive item. Offerors must identify prime and subcontractors for energetic ingredients and fabricated parts, detail each subcontractor’s equipment, personnel, and capabilities, and provide certification test plans and methods for all raw ingredients and energetic compounds. Proposals must include a comprehensive plan to meet WS‑12984 Rev AA production, inspection, and test requirements, a detailed program schedule that incorporates First Article Testing, and a Quality Management System (QMS) description that validates compliance with the solicitation’s quality assurance criteria. Additional mandatory deliverables are a complete manufacturing flow diagram, a description of facilities, personnel, tooling, and capacity, a pre‑award safety survey, DD254, and monthly DD Form 375 progress reports. Evaluation will be best‑value based, using an adjectival rating of non‑price factors (technical approach, QMS, schedule, and small‑business participation) with price assessed only for reasonableness. HUBZone small‑business concerns receive a 10 % price preference unless they waive it, and proposals will be rated on small‑business participation (outstanding to marginal). The solicitation emphasizes critical safety and explosive handling requirements, mandatory compliance testing, and a robust quality assurance plan as unique, non‑negotiable elements.
