Indefinite Delivery Contract SPE4A618D0102

This indefinite delivery contract (IDC) was awarded by the Defense Logistics Agency (DLA) Aviation to Carson Industries, Inc., a woman-owned small business manufacturer headquartered in Hilton Head Island, South Carolina. The IDC, valued at $1,137,816.40, covers the delivery of various optical and electronic components such as lens assemblies, focus lens assemblies, battery assemblies, and other aviation-related equipment used in military weapons systems, aircraft, and vehicles.

The IDC was initially awarded as a total small business set-aside in February 2018 and has a period of performance through February 2023. Since the initial award, DLA Aviation has issued multiple firm fixed-price delivery orders against the IDC, ranging in value from approximately $55,000 to $105,000, for the supply of focus lens assemblies. The delivery orders do not utilize any set-asides, as Carson Industries has demonstrated its capability to reliably fulfill these optical component requirements for the Department of Defense. This IDC provides DLA Aviation with a flexible procurement mechanism to acquire critical spare parts and components as needed to support military end users.
