Description

The United States Army Contracting Command-Rock Island (ACC-RI), on behalf of the Office of the Project Manager Combat Ammunition Systems (PM CAS) is conducting market research to identify potential sources within the United States or Canada capable of manufacturing and delivering the M762A1 Electronic Time (ET) Fuze, the M767A1 ET Fuze, the M782A1 Multi-Option Fuze for Artillery, Increment 2 (MOFA II), the M734A1 Multi-Option Fuze for Mortars, and/or M783 Point Detonating/Delay Mortar Fuze and variants thereof. The purpose of this market survey is to obtain current information on the capability of potential sources to deliver M762A1/M767A1 at a rate of 14,000 per month, M782A1 at a rate of 4,000 per month, and/or M734A1/M783 at a rate of 20,000 per month in support of FY28-FY32 funding requirements. Capable sources can submit a response in the following fuze combinations: M762A1/M767A1, M782A1, and/or M734A1/M783. Sources can submit their response for a single fuze combination, two fuze combinations, or all three fuze combinations. The North American Industry Classification System (NAICS) code for these items is 332993. The Product and Service Code is 1390. The M762A1 and M767A1 ET Fuzes provide electronic time and point detonating function needed for artillery projectiles. The fuzes can be set manually or with an inductive setter. The fuzes can be set for Electronic Time from 0.5 to 199.9 seconds in 0.1-second increments. The M762A1 and M767A1 ET Fuzes are used in both 105mm and 155mm weapon systems. The M762A1 ET Fuze is used with cargo carrying projectiles, while the M767A1 ET Fuze is used with bursting artillery ammunition. The M782A1 MOFA II performs all functions (proximity, precision time, impact, and delay) needed for bulk filled bursting type artillery projectiles in a standard artillery fuze contour. The M782A1 MOFA II is inductively settable allowing the projectile to be pre-fuzed and handled by automated ammunition handling systems. The M782A1 MOFA II supports all current bursting artillery ammunition for 105mm and 155mm weapon systems. The M782A1 MOFA II can be set for precision time from 0.5 to 199.9 seconds in 0.1-second increments. The M734A1 fuze has four selectable functions: two proximity Height of Burst settings (60/81 PRX and 120 PRX); Impact; and Delay. M783 is a lower cost variant of M734A1 with only PD and DELAY functions. The M734A1 and the M783 Fuze can be used on 60mm, 81mm, and 120mm High Explosive and 60mm and 120mm White Phosphorous Smoke Cartridges. To be considered a capable source for this effort, all interested sources must submit a response that provides adequate technical and manufacturing capability to propose design solutions for fuze improvements, address obsolescence issues, and capability for producing at high production rates for M762A1/M767A1, M782A1, and/or M734A1/M783 and variants thereof. If a respondent does not have adequate resources (technical, manufacturing, personnel, etc.) available, the r…
