Who to talk to

At the forecast stage there is no active procurement, so contact is welcome rather than restricted — this is the one window where a direct conversation is straightforwardly appropriate.

The Small Business Specialist is usually the better first call. Helping firms like yours find and compete for this work is their actual job, and they can tell you whether a set-aside is still under consideration.

Market intelligence

Account requiredWho wins this work, and what it pays

Comparable awards under NAICS 332993 at this agency — the incumbent, what they were paid, when their period of performance ends, and the real pricing distribution rather than the headline number. From public federal award records.

Statement of work, as posted

The purchase of 9MM Luger 124 Grain Metal Jacket (FMJ) Ammunition is mission critical to the successful execution of the Federal Air Marshal Service (FAMS). Without this procurement, the TSA Training Center would face significant disruptions to its training schedule, potentially delaying the certification and deployment of new Federal Air Marshals. Additionally, field office location throughout the country will not have required ammunition supplies to maintain qualified personnel ready to respond to in-flight threats and secure the aviation environment.
