Virtual Industry Day for the Special Ammunition and Weapon Systems (SAWS)

The USG is seeking feedback on the following questionnaire regarding Draft RFP #2 to ensure its effectiveness:

  1. Are the instructions clear and sufficient for an offeror to complete the HTRO Matrix accurately without further guidance? Do you foresee any common points of confusion?
  2. From your perspective, does this HTRO Matrix provide a fair and objective framework for evaluating an offeror’s capabilities in this domain?
  3. The HTRO Matrix assigns different point values across categories (e.g., Sourcing, EUCs, TDPs). Does the weighting seem appropriate? For instance, does the high point value for “Sourcing” (Category 1) align with its importance relative to other categories?
  4. The Minimum Technical Threshold Rating (MTTR) is currently set at 80% of the total possible points. Is this a reasonable benchmark for identifying a qualified offeror, or would you suggest a different threshold?
  5. Based on your company’s experience, would you realistically be able to meet the 80% MTTR? Which categories or specific line items present the most significant challenges to achieving that score?
  6. Are there any criteria that are ambiguous, conflicting, or not aligned with standard industry practices? For example, in Category 7, is the $50M contract value a meaningful threshold for differentiating experience?
  7. The HTRO Matrix identifies specific types of documentation as proof. Are there alternative work samples or forms of evidence that you believe would also be strong indicators of capability for these categories?
  8. Price evaluation requires Offerors to bid on all items explicitly listed in the Price Matrix. Do you anticipate any difficulties in securing firm pricing for all specified items? Are there any specific items that would preclude your company from submitting complete pricing?

The USG will host a virtual Industry Day in support of this acquisition on May 14, 2026 at 09:00AM EST using MS TEAMS.

Registration for the virtual Industry Day and the Industry Feedback Questionnaire is requested back no later May 4, 2026 at 5:00PM EST using the following link:
