Indefinite Delivery Contract SPE4A619D5343

The Defense Logistics Agency (DLA) Aviation awarded Harris Corporation, through its Communication Systems division doing business as Exelis, a single-award indefinite delivery contract for the delivery of various electro-optical and electronic components to support military aviation logistics requirements. The contract has a potential value of $250,000 and runs through January 2024. Under this IDC, Harris has received multiple firm fixed price delivery orders to provide lens caps and other commercial off-the-shelf items, with performance occurring at the company's facility in Roanoke, Virginia. The total value of the delivery orders summarized exceeds $13,000. As a major provider of communication, electronic, and avionics equipment to U.S. defense agencies, Harris Corporation, now a subsidiary of L3Harris Technologies, leverages its IDCs with DLA to furnish an array of parts and materials in support of the DLA Aviation's mission to supply the military's aviation assets. No set-aside designations were used for the delivery orders reviewed.

The IDC and associated delivery orders enable the DLA Aviation to obtain electro-optical lens caps, protective covers, and related components from Harris on an as-needed basis to maintain and sustain military aircraft systems. Harris' status as an incumbent supplier and integrator of advanced electronic systems for federal agencies allows it to efficiently fulfill these types of standard supply chain requirements through its pre-established contract vehicles. While the specific end uses for the lens caps are not detailed, the DLA Aviation's logistics support role suggests these items are likely utilized across a range of military aviation platforms and programs.
