About this IDV

Acron Aviation, Inc., doing business as L-3 Communications Avionics Systems Inc., was awarded a single-award Indefinite Delivery Contract valued at $11.73 million by the Air Force Sustainment Center on August 11, 2017, with an ultimate completion date of August 1, 2022. The contract encompasses repair services for attitude indicators installed on KC-135 aerial refueling tanker aircraft, a critical flight instrument that maintains proper aircraft orientation and is essential to safe operations. The work is performed at the contractor's facility in Grand Rapids, Michigan. As a large business operating without set-aside designations, Acron Aviation competed on the basis of its extensive expertise in the design, manufacture, and repair of advanced aviation components and avionics systems for military aircraft. The company, a subsidiary of L3Harris Technologies, Inc., specializes in depot-level maintenance and repair of sophisticated flight instrumentation across multiple Department of Defense platforms and has established itself as a critical supplier of mission-critical aviation support solutions.

Nine firm fixed-price delivery orders were issued under this Indefinite Delivery Contract between August 2017 and March 2022, with individual order values ranging from approximately $290,000 to $2.23 million, collectively obligating approximately $6.6 million against the $11.73 million ceiling. The delivery orders address recurring repair and overhaul requirements for KC-135 attitude indicators, with several orders also encompassing repair services for T-38 altitude indicators and attitude indicators on F-16 and E-3 aircraft. This contract vehicle provided the Air Force Sustainment Center with a flexible procurement mechanism to issue task orders as operational requirements and aircraft maintenance schedules dictated, while maintaining cost certainty through the firm fixed-price structure. The contract reflects the Air Force's reliance on established vendor relationships and specialized technical capabilities to sustain critical aircraft systems supporting the service's primary missions in aerial refueling and strategic airlift operations.
