About this vehicle
The Department of the Air Force Materiel Command Lifecycle Management Center at Wright Patterson Air Force Base established this Master IDIQ for KC-46 initial spare parts on October 1, 2022, with ordering authority extending to September 30, 2027—approximately 14 months remaining. The vehicle carries a shared ceiling of $1.894 billion and operates as an unrestricted, multiple-award contract with no set-aside designations across all 72 awarded task orders.
Seventy-two delivery orders valued at $483.8 million in combined potential value have been issued to date, with $483.4 million obligated (100% of combined potential value). Task-order activity peaked in 2023 at 22 orders and has slowed in 2024–2026, averaging roughly 12 orders annually in the last two years. The most recent award dated April 20, 2026, involved a $3.295 million delivery order with a completion target of April 20, 2028.
Davenport Aviation Inc., Source One Spares LLC, and Velo Aviation LLC dominate by potential value, collectively holding $287.2 million (59% of combined potential value). The top five primes—Davenport Aviation Inc., Source One Spares LLC, Velo Aviation LLC, AAR Government Services Inc., and SOI Aviation Inc.—capture 80% of combined potential value. A secondary tier including The Boeing Company and a longer tail of smaller aviation spares suppliers round out the 14 distinct prime contractors.
Ordering is concentrated within the Air Force. The Department of the Air Force Materiel Command Air Force Sustainment Center holds 13 orders valued at $320.2 million (66% of total), while the Department of the Air Force Materiel Command Lifecycle Management Center at Wright Patterson AFB holds 59 orders valued at $163.6 million (34%). Place of performance centers on Travis Air Force Base and Tinker Air Force Base in support of KC-46A tanker modernization, with some orders supporting foreign military sales to Israel.
Task orders typically range from nominal to mid-range values; representative 2025–2026 awards span from under $60,000 to approximately $85 million, with most clustered below $30 million. Pricing is firm fixed-price across the portfolio.
