Indefinite Delivery Contract SPE4A723D0228

Aerometals, Inc., a small business aerospace component manufacturer based in El Dorado Hills, California, was awarded a single-award Indefinite Delivery Contract by the Defense Logistics Agency (DLA) Aviation on April 21, 2023, with a ceiling value of $1,999,999.99 and ultimate completion date of November 4, 2025. This total small business set-aside contract establishes a flexible procurement vehicle for structural support services and aerospace component supply, enabling DLA Aviation to efficiently manage unpredictable maintenance and sustainment requirements across military aviation platforms. The contract encompasses the delivery of high-precision aerospace parts and structural components including duct assemblies, access doors, struts, engine parts, and related hardware items critical to aircraft maintenance operations. As a Defense agency procurement, this indefinite delivery vehicle allows DLA Aviation to issue individual task orders as operational needs arise, providing responsive logistics support while maintaining cost certainty through the established ceiling value.

A firm fixed-price delivery order issued under this contract on June 7, 2023, demonstrates the vehicle's operational application, with a task order value of $135,090.75 and completion date of January 27, 2025, for the provision of structural support services and aircraft-related hardware. Aerometals' established performance as both prime contractor and subcontractor on defense aerospace programs, combined with its registered classification as a small business manufacturer specializing in high-precision aerospace filtration products, aircraft skin panels, and structural supports, positions the contractor to fulfill DLA Aviation's ongoing demand for spare parts and components supporting military aviation platforms including the F-15, F-16, B-52, and T-7A REDHAWK aircraft. The original solicitation, posted as a pre-solicitation opportunity on December 19, 2022, was designated as a total small business set-aside, reflecting the federal government's commitment to supporting small business participation in critical defense logistics operations.
