Indefinite Delivery Contract SPE4A721D0081

The Defense Logistics Agency (DLA) Aviation awarded an Indefinite Delivery Contract (IDC) to D-J Engineering Inc., a veteran-owned small business manufacturer, to provide a range of aircraft structural components and spare parts. The $700,000 single-award IDC has a 5-year period of performance from January 2021 to January 2026. Under this contract, D-J Engineering has received several firm fixed-price delivery orders from DLA Aviation to fabricate and deliver aircraft longerons, a critical structural component, to support military aircraft maintenance and readiness. The delivery orders range in value from $14,950 to $59,800, with periods of performance extending through 2025. As the agency responsible for logistics support of the Department of Defense, DLA Aviation's procurement of these aircraft parts is essential to equipping and sustaining the nation's military forces. The original solicitation was a small business set-aside, highlighting the government's commitment to engaging the small business industrial base for these aerospace manufacturing capabilities.

D-J Engineering's status as a veteran-owned small business manufacturer and its existing relationships with major defense contractors like Boeing and Northrop Grumman demonstrate its qualifications to deliver the required aircraft structural components. The award of this IDC and associated delivery orders underscores D-J Engineering's role as a key supplier in the defense supply chain, providing critical parts and services to maintain the operational readiness of various military aircraft platforms, including the C-135, B-52, B-1B, E-3, and A-10.
