M548 Metal Ammunition Containers Bridge Contract

The Government awarded a 12 month bridge contract to Conco, Inc., under the authority of 
10 U.S.C. 3204(a)(l), as implemented by FAR 6.302 Only one responsible source and no other supplies or 
services will satisfy agency requirements. This action is for the production and delivery of 
 M548 Metal Ammunition Containers, a critical packaging component for small and 
medium caliber ammunition used in training and combat operations. The bridge contract was necessary 
to ensure continued production and delivery of these containers until the anticipated follow-on 
contract is fully implemented.

The award was for a firm-fixed-price 12 month bridge contract that mirrors the scope of 
work previously performed under the expired Indefinite Delivery Indefinite Quantity (IDIQ) Contract 
W52P1J-20-D-0033 with Conco, Inc.
