Good Economic News For Our County

I've learned that a Harnett County based company has just been awarded a large percentage of a major Federal contract.  I am very excited that this helps keep and expand much needed jobs in our County.

I also offer a special thanks to Scott Dorney with the North Carolina Military Business Center for his work in helping secure the contract.

Armtec Countermeasures Co., Coachella, Calif., is being awarded a $46,540,500 five-year firm-fixed-price, indefinite-delivery/indefinite-quantity contract for the manufacture of RR-196/AL NSN 5865-01-553-7532 and RR-196/AL (T-1) chaff cartridges, NSN 5865-01-553-1536.  The cartridges are used on the attack fighter (F/A) aircraft (ACFT) to defeat or launched threats targeting radar signature and emissions.  Work will be performed in Lillington, N.C., and work will be completed Dec. 15, 2014.  Contract funds will not expire before the end of the current fiscal year.
