Indefinite Delivery Contract SPE4A723D0041

The Defense Logistics Agency (DLA) Aviation awarded a Total Small Business set-aside Indefinite Delivery Contract to Honeycomb Company of America, Inc., a small business aerospace manufacturing contractor based in Sarasota, Florida. The contract, valued at $2.0 million with a performance period extending through November 1, 2027, establishes a vehicle for the rapid procurement of panel assemblies and skin components for military aircraft. DLA Aviation utilizes this indefinite delivery mechanism to maintain consistent access to specialized aerospace parts required for the sustainment, repair, and operational readiness of major military platforms including the B-52 Stratofortress bomber, KC-135 Stratotanker, and C-5 Galaxy transport aircraft. All work is performed at Honeycomb's manufacturing facility in Sarasota, Florida.

Since the contract's award on October 31, 2022, DLA Aviation has issued four delivery orders totaling approximately $561.0 thousand against the vehicle, with completion dates ranging through mid-2025. These firm fixed-price task orders address panel assembly and skin production requirements across the military airlift and strategic bomber fleets. The delivery orders demonstrate the contract's operational utility in meeting recurring component requirements without requiring new competitive solicitations for each procurement action. Honeycomb Company's established expertise in manufacturing complex metal and composite aerospace structures, combined with its small business status and demonstrated performance history with DLA Aviation, positions the contractor as a critical supplier within the defense logistics supply chain for aircraft structural components and assemblies.
