About this award

Consumer Fuels Inc., a woman-owned small business manufacturer based in Huntsville, Alabama, was awarded a $1.11M firm fixed-price purchase order on June 6, 2025, to deliver 40 Heavy Weight Fairlead Beam Assemblies for Aircraft Arresting Systems. This is a 100% Small Business Set-Aside contract funded by Air Education and Training Command, with performance through August 6, 2026. The fairlead beam assemblies are critical components used in Aircraft Arresting Systems to direct tape paths on runway shoulders, enabling safe aircraft recovery operations. Consumer Fuels will manufacture these specialized components to exacting military specifications, including National Stock Number 1710-01-098-4984, with finish requirements per MIL-PRF-85285 (high gloss green paint) and MIL-PRF-23377K (dark green epoxy primer). Delivery is specified to the Civil Engineer Maintenance Inspection Repair Team at Tyndall Air Force Base, Florida.

The contract was awarded following a simplified acquisition procedures solicitation posted in April 2025 requiring First Article Testing approval prior to full production. Consumer Fuels' selection reflects its demonstrated capability in manufacturing specialized defense and aviation components, supported by its portfolio of prior subcontract work with major defense contractors including Northrop Grumman, Lockhurst Martin, and General Dynamics on structural metal and aircraft assembly projects. The company's established expertise in producing cable assemblies and technical components for federal defense agencies positions it well to execute this critical arresting system component requirement within the 14-month delivery timeline.
