Indefinite Delivery Contract SPE4A623D0163

The Defense Logistics Agency (DLA) Aviation awarded a single-award Indefinite Delivery Contract (IDC) to Soderberg Manufacturing Company, Inc., a veteran-owned small business manufacturer located in City of Industry, California. The $256,176 IDC, with a performance period extending through June 2026, allows DLA Aviation to procure a variety of specialized aircraft lighting equipment and components from Soderberg on an as-needed basis. Through delivery orders against this IDC, Soderberg will supply items such as cockpit, taxiing, landing, navigational, and formation lights, as well as instrument, utility, dome, and emergency lighting components essential for maintaining the operational readiness of U.S. military aircraft.

Under a recent $62,352 firm fixed-price delivery order, Soderberg will provide navigational lights to DLA Aviation by June 2024. This delivery order was issued against Soderberg's IDC, which is one of multiple IDVs the company holds with DLA Aviation. Through these IDVs, DLA Aviation can efficiently acquire Soderberg's specialized lighting products to support its military aviation logistics programs. The original market research solicitation indicated the potential for this requirement to be set aside for small businesses, but the awarded contract did not utilize a small business set-aside.
