About this IDV

The Federal Aviation Administration awarded a $40 million single-award Indefinite Delivery Contract to Thales USA, Inc. on March 7, 2024, extending through March 5, 2029, to provide ILS-420 systems, components, and comprehensive engineering services.

Thales USA, Inc., a foreign-owned subsidiary of the global Thales Group, holds the exclusive provider position for ILS-420 precision approach and landing system technologies under this IDV. Performance occurs across multiple locations, including Arlington, Virginia (principal place of business), Shawnee Mission, Kansas, Overland Park, Kansas, Washington, DC, and various airport installations nationwide where ILS equipment is deployed, repaired, and upgraded.

The IDV encompasses equipment procurement, software updates, system repairs and modifications, installation support, technical services, site surveys, DMSMS health assessments, and program management activities supporting the national network of Instrument Landing Systems critical to safe air travel operations.

All work is priced on a firm fixed-price basis with no small business set-asides. Forty delivery orders have been issued under this vehicle to date, totaling $13.3 million in combined potential value. Recent significant orders include a $4.93 million FY24 Bipartisan Infrastructure Law ILS-420 system purchase awarded July 23, 2024; a $3.45 million ILS-420 system purchase (Part 2) for FY24 BIL projects awarded January 23, 2025; a $693,786 upgrade of the localizer and glide slope at Savannah/Hilton Head International Airport awarded July 24, 2026; and a $629,514 upgrade at Augusta Regional Airport awarded August 13, 2025. Additional orders fund installations at Richmond International and Del Rio International airports, spare parts procurement (Compass Data Link System components, Portable ILS Receivers, glide slope antennas), technical interchange meetings, installers workshops at multiple locations, and ongoing program management support. Thales operates exclusively as a prime contractor with no subcontractor activity across its federal portfolio.
