Indefinite Delivery Contract SPE4A720D0353

The federal contract Indefinite Delivery Vehicle (IDV) award SPE4A720D0353 was issued by the Defense Logistics Agency (DLA) Aviation to Peerless Chain Company, a manufacturer of industrial chains, cargo control equipment, and related products. The single-award IDV has a ceiling value of $987,732.64 and a performance period extending to August 2025. Under this IDV, DLA Aviation has issued multiple delivery orders for the supply of aircraft cargo tie-down chains, including a $47,927.76 firm-fixed-price order in December 2020. Peerless Chain Company also holds a $250,000 Blanket Purchase Agreement with the General Services Administration (GSA) and a $6.34 million Indefinite Delivery Contract with DLA Aviation specifically for cargo tie-down chains. These IDVs demonstrate Peerless Chain Company's critical role as a prime contractor in supporting both general government supply needs and specialized military aviation requirements through the delivery of a diverse array of chain products and assemblies.

The original solicitation for this requirement was a sources sought notice posted by DLA Aviation in January 2020 to identify qualified manufacturers capable of providing cargo tie-down chain assemblies. The notice indicated the procurement may be set-aside for small businesses or competed on a full and open basis, with potential for multiple awards. The estimated annual demand was 2,312 units of a specific chain assembly referenced by national stock number. Peerless Chain Company, a for-profit manufacturing business, was ultimately awarded the single-award IDV contract to fulfill this need for DLA Aviation.
