The federal contract IDV awarded to Aiw-Alton Inc., a small business manufacturer based in Windsor Locks, Connecticut, provides the Defense Logistics Agency (DLA) with a variety of specialized components and repair services for military aircraft, ships, and ground vehicles. Under this single-award Indefinite Delivery Contract (IDC) valued at up to $250,000, Aiw-Alton is the sole supplier of regulating valves, air conditioning duct assemblies, structural aluminum plates, tube supports, cargo knives, and other critical parts over a multi-year period. The IDC was originally solicited as a total small business set-aside, reflecting Aiw-Alton's status as a qualified small business supplier. Delivery orders issued against the IDC have ranged from $5,530 to $9,085 for specific quantities of valves, with performance required at Aiw-Alton's Connecticut facility. This contract demonstrates Aiw-Alton's expertise in manufacturing a diverse array of military-grade parts and equipment, as well as the company's established relationship with the DLA's Land and Maritime division as a trusted prime contractor.

These firm-fixed price orders, valued at up to $9,085, require the company to deliver the specified quantities to DLA depots within 60 to 90 days. The original solicitation for this IDC was posted in April 2020, with a due date of April 27, 2020 and a subsequent contract award on May 21, 2020, indicating a rapid procurement process to fulfill the agency's ongoing requirements for these critical components.
