The U.S. Air Force Sustainment Center awarded an Indefinite Delivery Contract (IDC) to Chromalloy, S.A. De C.V., a for-profit manufacturer in Mexico, for the remanufacture of Pratt & Whitney TF33 2nd-4th stage turbine nozzle vanes. This single-award IDC has a ceiling value of $10,434,075.71 and runs through September 2026. The Air Force has issued several firm-fixed price delivery orders under this IDC, ranging from $16,190 to over $550,000, to obtain the required nozzle vane remanufacturing services from Chromalloy. This work supports the Air Force's engine sustainment programs, particularly where organic repair capabilities are limited. The original solicitation indicated an ongoing need for TF33 engine component repair and overhaul to maintain serviceable inventory levels. No small business set-asides were used for these awards, indicating Chromalloy competes in the open market for these contracts. The company also holds a separate $6.3 million IDC with the Air Force Sustainment Center for the remanufacture of CFM56-2 engine components, demonstrating the Air Force's reliance on Chromalloy's specialized capabilities to sustain its fleet of TF33 and F108 engines, which power various aircraft including the KC-135 Stratotanker.
