Indefinite Delivery Contract SPE4A725D0350

Honeycomb Company of America, Inc., a small business aerospace components manufacturer based in Sarasota, Florida, was awarded a Single Award Indefinite Delivery Contract by the Defense Logistics Agency (DLA) Aviation on September 2, 2025, with a ceiling value of $1,999,999.99 and ultimate completion date of August 26, 2030. The contract is set aside for total small business and enables DLA Aviation to procure structural panels and related aerospace components on an indefinite quantity basis. The underlying solicitation, posted July 9, 2025, sought to procure structural aluminum panels (National Stock Number 1560-003204963, part number 9-61963-3) for C/KC-135 aircraft through an indefinite quantity contract with an estimated annual requirement of 12 panels and a 180-day delivery requirement after receipt of order. Contractors are required to maintain Department of Defense certification for access to unclassified technical data per DOD 5220.22M with Rights Guard data restrictions, and Honeycomb was identified as an approved manufacturer alongside Nordam Group LLC, The Boeing Company, Craft Manufacturing and Tooling, and Handy Tool & Manufacturing Company.

Under this indefinite delivery vehicle, a task order was issued to Honeycomb on September 11, 2025, for the manufacture of a structural aluminum panel at a firm fixed price of $17,884.00, with completion scheduled for June 18, 2026. The task order, which does not carry a small business set-aside designation, represents typical utilization of the contract vehicle for rapid procurement of proprietary aerospace components supporting military aircraft sustainment operations. Honeycomb's established track record as a critical supplier to DLA Aviation since 2001 and demonstrated expertise in producing complex structural panels, skin assemblies, fairings, and trailing edges for military platforms including the B-52 bomber, KC-135 tanker, and C-5 transport aircraft positions the company as a key vendor for maintaining the readiness and operational capability of the Department of Defense's military aircraft fleet.
