About this IDV
The Air Force Life Cycle Management Center (AFLCMC) at Robins Air Force Base awarded a single-award Indefinite Delivery Contract to AAR Manufacturing, Inc. on April 21, 2020, with a ceiling of $125,030,435 and an ultimate completion date of April 20, 2025, for 463L cargo pallet production and repair.
No set-aside was used. Work is performed at AAR Manufacturing's facility in Cadillac, Michigan. The IDIQ procures 463L legacy air cargo pallet manufacturing, production, and repair services supporting Air Force cargo logistics operations.
The contract carries a base period through April 2025. Pricing is fixed-price with economic price adjustment across delivery orders.
Recent delivery order activity under this IDIQ demonstrates sustained Air Force demand. Orders issued between May 2020 and April 2026 range from approximately $18,000 to $26.4 million in individual ceiling value. Representative recent orders include a $22.6 million delivery order awarded December 2, 2024, for 463L pallet production and repair with a firm fixed price structure; a $9.2 million undefinitized order awarded June 19, 2024; a $9.04 million order awarded July 29, 2024; a $921,078 order issued March 13, 2025; and multiple orders in the $1 million to $39,960 range issued through April 2026. All delivery orders specify Cadillac, Michigan as place of performance and use fixed-price or fixed-price-with-economic-price-adjustment pricing. The contract generated substantial FY2025 invoicing: one order alone produced $22.4 million in billed labor across 20.3 FTEs with no subcontractor involvement—all work self-performed by AAR Manufacturing.
