Main St, Carbondale, PA, under the authority as prescribed in FAR 13.106(b)(1).� The requirement is for 50 Enhanced Combat Helmets (ECHs) to investigate the efficacy of aerogels in reducing back face deformation (BFD) and behind helmet blunt trauma (BHBT) during blunt impact or ballistic events when used in a full helmet system.

THIS IS NOT A REQUEST FOR PROPOSALS.� No solicitation document is available. Interested parties may identify their interest and capability by sending responses regarding this requirement to the Army Contracting Command � Aberdeen Proving Ground CCAP-SCN, Natick Contracting Division via email ONLY to meri.l.jones.civ@army.mil no later than 3:00 p.m. EST 30 June 2022.� The U.S. government will not pay for any information or administrative cost incurred in response to this Notice.� All costs associated with responding to this Notice will be solely at the expense of the interested party.
