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.
