Indefinite Delivery Contract SPE4A719D0397

The Defense Logistics Agency (DLA) Aviation, a component of the U.S. Department of Defense, awarded an Indefinite Delivery Contract (IDC) to ORO Manufacturing Co., a woman-owned small business located in Monroe, North Carolina. The $762,961.20 IDC covers the production and delivery of various aircraft seats, seat bottoms, and related seating components designated by specific National Stock Numbers (NSNs). ORO holds multiple active IDCs with DLA Aviation, with potential ceiling values ranging from $250,000 to over $10 million. Through this contract and associated firm-fixed-price delivery orders, ORO will provide a diverse array of aircraft seats, troop seats, seat bottoms, leg assemblies, and other critical aviation hardware to support the DLA's mission of supplying the U.S. armed forces. The majority of these delivery orders are not set aside, though some are designated for small businesses, reflecting ORO's competitive position in the military aviation seating market. In addition to serving as a prime contractor, ORO also provides aircraft seating products as a subcontractor to major defense firms like Lockheed Martin and Boeing.

The key products being delivered under this IDC include 4610050681 aircraft seats, with specific NSNs such as 8510272763, 8510207093, 8509905873, 8509400118, 8509029878, 8508580916, 8508216960, 8507874643, 8507803517, 8507658373, and 8506974734. The firm-fixed-price delivery orders range in value from approximately $15,000 to $25,000, with periods of performance typically extending 6-12 months. The majority of the delivery orders are awarded without any set-aside designations, though ORO's status as a woman-owned small business is reflected in some of the smaller-value awards. All work is to be performed at ORO's manufacturing facility in Monroe, North Carolina.
