Indefinite Delivery Contract SPE4A725D0108

The federal contract IDV award SPE4A725D0108 was issued by the Defense Logistics Agency (DLA) Aviation to Apex Manufacturing Company, Inc., a small business manufacturer located in Sun Valley, California. The 5-year Indefinite Delivery Contract has a ceiling value of $1,999,999.99 and covers the procurement of a HOUSING ASSEMBLY under NSN 2995-00-070-1839, with an estimated annual quantity of 152 units. The contract is a 100% Small Business Set-Aside and was awarded as a result of a pre-solicitation posted in October 2024. The government intends to issue task orders under this IDV to support the maintenance and readiness of various military aircraft platforms, including the UH-60 Black Hawk, CH-47 Chinook, and F-18 fighter jet. Apex Manufacturing Company, Inc. has extensive experience as a key supplier of critical aviation hardware and structural components to the Department of Defense, having been awarded numerous contracts by DLA Aviation, DLA Land and Maritime, and the Army Aviation and Missile Command.

The original pre-solicitation indicated that the government does not possess technical data on this part and that any interested contractor not listed as an approved source (Engineered Metal Products, Inc., Rotair Aerospace Corp., and Apex Manufacturing Co. Inc.) would need to submit a Source Approval Request (SAR) package for approval. The contract will include requirements such as First Article Testing, Production Lot Testing, and Export Control, but does not involve Surge or Critical Safety Item designations. The final award decision will be based on a combination of price, past performance, and other evaluation factors specified in the forthcoming solicitation, which is expected to be issued on October 17, 2024.
