Indefinite Delivery Contract SPE7L323D60EH

The Defense Logistics Agency Land and Maritime has awarded an indefinite delivery contract to Thomas Instrument, Incorporated, a small business manufacturer, to provide various aircraft components and parts including gearshafts and related accessories. Under this single-award contract with a potential value of $250,000, Thomas Instrument has been issued two delivery orders totaling $127,302 to supply 16,518 bevel gearshafts for aircraft maintenance and repair. Performance on these firm fixed price orders will occur at Thomas Instrument's facility in Brookshire, Texas, with deliveries scheduled by August 2023. The underlying solicitation was set aside for small businesses and the awarded contract may facilitate additional task orders over a one-year period or until the maximum value is reached. As the DLA supports the military's supply and logistics requirements, these gearshaft components are likely used to sustain the readiness of various fixed and rotary-wing aircraft across the armed services.

Through its history of past prime contract awards, Thomas Instrument has demonstrated expertise in providing a range of flight-critical machined parts, assemblies, and remanufacturing services for major defense programs. This latest IDV contract extends the company's role as an approved supplier of gearbox and driveline components to the DLA, complementing its existing indefinite delivery vehicles with the Air Force Sustainment Center and Army Aviation and Missile Life Cycle Management Command for the overhaul and remanufacturing of aircraft hydraulic and transmission systems.
