Purchase Order SPE4A726V0638

Brown Helicopter, Inc., a small business based in Pensacola, Florida, has been awarded a firm fixed-price purchase order valued at $1,652.00 for a retainer fairlead assembly (part number 8511746216) to support military helicopter operations. The award, issued on November 7, 2025, with an ultimate completion date of December 22, 2025, was made without a set-aside designation, indicating open competition. This delivery order is issued under Brown Helicopter's existing Indefinite Delivery Contract with the Defense Logistics Agency (DLA) Aviation, a single-award vehicle established on September 12, 2023, with an annual ceiling of $250,000 and designated as a total small business set-aside. The contract is funded by the Department of Defense Aviation office and performed in Pensacola, Florida.

Brown Helicopter, Inc. has established itself as a specialized supplier of critical aviation components to the Department of Defense and related federal agencies since its registration in the federal contracting system in December 2001. The company's expertise spans bearings, fasteners, structural components, hydraulic systems, electrical components, and mechanical assemblies essential for military helicopter maintenance and readiness. Recent robust contract activity through DLA Aviation and DLA Land and Maritime demonstrates the company's consistent capability to deliver specialized aviation hardware on schedule. The retainer fairlead represents a routine component procurement supporting helicopter fleet sustainment operations through the established IDC framework, which enables DLA Aviation to issue delivery orders efficiently without conducting individual competitive procurement actions for routine requirements.
