Indefinite Delivery Contract SPM45104D0779

The federal contract IDV award SPM45104D0779 was a single-award indefinite delivery contract (IDC) issued by the Defense Logistics Agency (DLA) Aviation to the prime contractor Essex Industries, Inc. Cryogenics Department Division. The contract, which did not have a set-aside, aimed to provide a flexible vehicle for the rapid procurement of specialized cryogenic components and services to support critical aviation, maritime, and medical logistics missions for the Department of Defense.

Under this IDC, valued at an unknown ceiling amount, Essex Industries supplied a diverse range of aerospace and defense products to DLA Aviation, DLA Land and Maritime, and the U.S. Air Force. These included items such as liquid oxygen converters, tanks, valves, tube assemblies, fittings, safety relief valves, cable assemblies, and other specialized cryogenic equipment. The contract also enabled Essex to provide repair and remanufacturing services for liquid oxygen tanks and converters. Task orders issued under the IDC were primarily firm fixed-price contracts, allowing the government to efficiently obtain these critical components and services as needed to support high-priority defense programs and platforms.
