The Naval Supply Systems Command (NAVSUP) awarded a definitive, firm fixed-price contract to L3 Technologies, Inc.'s L3 KEO division for the procurement of Window Assembly, HEA components with a ceiling value of $1.87 million. The contract, awarded on April 25, 2025, with an ultimate completion date of January 19, 2028, was issued without a set-aside designation. The requirement originated from a pre-solicitation notice posted in April 2022 for the procurement of NSN 7H-2040-010373691-L1 window assemblies in a quantity of five units, with delivery on a free-on-board origin basis. The government determined it was uneconomical to acquire data rights or reverse engineer the part, necessitating procurement through sole-source negotiations under FAR 6.302-1 authority.
L3 KEO, based in Northampton, Massachusetts, is a subsidiary of L3Harris Technologies, Inc., a major aerospace and defense contractor specializing in advanced electronic systems and communication technologies. The division maintains an extensive portfolio of federal contracts with NAVSUP, Naval Sea Systems Command (NAVSEA), and the Defense Logistics Agency, primarily focused on delivering specialized electronic and optical components supporting maritime vessels and military platforms. The contract aligns with L3 KEO's core competencies in supplying critical naval components and represents one of numerous delivery orders generated under the company's existing Basic Ordering Agreement with NAVSUP, which has already generated over $6.6 million in prior awards.
