Indefinite Delivery Contract SPE4A722D0007

The Defense Logistics Agency (DLA) Aviation awarded an Indefinite Delivery Contract (IDC) valued at $1,999,999.99 to Kent Associates, Inc., a veteran-owned small business manufacturer of aerospace components located in Mansfield, Texas. This single-award IDC has an ultimate completion date of October 12, 2026 and was initially awarded on October 13, 2021.

Under this IDC, Kent Associates is the prime contractor responsible for providing a range of critical aircraft parts and equipment, including shaft assemblies, fuel and oil kits, heaters, structural plates, air spring assemblies, and cooling system kits. The awarded task orders against this IDC are primarily for firm fixed-price deliveries of specific components, such as shaft assemblies valued up to $10,962.54, to support DLA Aviation's mission of sustaining military aircraft readiness. While some task orders are set aside for small businesses, others do not have a socioeconomic designation, leveraging Kent Associates' veteran-owned status to secure both set-aside and unrestricted contracts from DLA. The original solicitation was a pre-solicitation notice for an Indefinite Quantity Contract to procure KC-135 aircraft parts, with a small business set-aside and an estimated maximum order quantity of 8 units over a 5-year base period.
