Indefinite Delivery Contract SPE4A725D0289

ATF Aerospace LLC, a small business based in Mesa, Arizona, was awarded a single-award Indefinite Delivery Contract (IDC) by the Defense Logistics Agency (DLA) Aviation on July 1, 2025, with a ceiling value of $2.0 million and an ultimate completion date of June 29, 2030. Under this IDC, the contractor supplies aerospace fasteners and standard hardware components critical to military aviation systems, with primary focus on items such as self-locking nuts, close tolerance bolts, shear bolts, machine screws, quick release pins, rivets, threaded inserts, and specialized fastening components. The contract carries no set-aside designation and leverages firm fixed-price delivery order structuring, enabling DLA Aviation to issue task orders for specific quantities as procurement needs arise. Performance occurs at ATF Aerospace's facility in Mesa, Arizona, supporting the agency's mission of procuring and providing spare parts and consumables for military aircraft maintenance and operations.

A delivery order issued on July 25, 2025, exemplifies the contract's application, with ATF Aerospace awarded $106,865.20 (firm fixed-price) for the supply of self-locking nuts designated under National Stock Number 5310-008118050 for use in FA-18 aircraft, with completion scheduled by January 10, 2028. This delivery order originated from a pre-solicitation market research notice posted by DLA Aviation on April 14, 2025, which sought to expand the approved supplier base for this specialized aerospace hardware component beyond the existing sources of SPS Technologies, LLC and Boeing Distribution Services X, Inc. The pre-solicitation effort reflects DLA Aviation's strategic approach to maintaining competitive supply chains for critical military aviation components while identifying qualified suppliers capable of meeting the precise specifications and quality standards required for fighter aircraft applications.
