Indefinite Delivery Contract SPE4A723D0088

The Defense Logistics Agency (DLA) Aviation awarded an indefinite-delivery/indefinite-quantity (IDIQ) contract to Honeycomb Company of America, Inc., a small business manufacturer of aerostructures and aviation components based in Sarasota, Florida. The IDIQ contract, valued up to $1,999,999.99, enables DLA to rapidly procure a variety of proprietary aircraft components and assemblies from Honeycomb through the issuance of firm fixed-price task orders. The contracted items include skin panel assemblies, structural panels, fairings, trailing edges, and wing panels for military aircraft such as the B-52 bomber, KC-135 tanker, and C-5 transport.

Several task orders have been issued under this IDIQ contract, ranging in value from approximately $24,940 to $41,567, for the delivery of specific aircraft skin materials to support DLA Aviation's fleet sustainment, repair, and readiness efforts. The task orders typically specify delivery timeframes of 140 to over 300 days, depending on the complexity of the components. This contracting approach allows DLA to streamline the procurement of critical aircraft parts from Honeycomb, a specialized small business supplier, to maintain the operational capability of the U.S. military's air assets.
