The Department of Defense, specifically the Department of the Navy through NSWC Crane, is soliciting proposals for the procurement of 5.56mm Long Range Ammunition (MK262 MOD 1). This acquisition is aimed at fulfilling various military requirements and includes comprehensive specifications for manufacturing, testing, inspection, packaging, and documentation of the ammunition. The procurement is particularly significant as it supports the operational readiness of U.S. military forces while promoting small business participation, including service-disabled veteran-owned businesses. Interested vendors must submit their proposals by September 19, 2024, and can direct inquiries to Shawna Gainey at shawna.y.gainey.civ@us.navy.mil or Leslie Graber-Heshelman at leslie.a.graber-heshelman.civ@us.navy.mil for further information.
