Navy Miscellaneous Aircraft Accessories 2010-2015

The Navy Miscellaneous Aircraft Accessories 2010-2015 Indefinite Delivery/Indefinite Quantity (IDIQ) contract vehicle is a master procurement mechanism supporting build-to-print machining requirements for the Naval Surface Warfare Center Crane, with a primary focus on manufacturing components for the ALE-47 countermeasures dispensing set. The contract vehicle enables the Navy to rapidly procure precision-machined components, specialized fabrication services, and custom manufacturing solutions through multiple small business contractors. These components are critical for maintaining and supporting advanced electronic warfare and aircraft defense systems.

Task orders under this IDIQ consistently involve highly specialized, low-volume manufacturing of aircraft and defense system components, with typical order values ranging from a few thousand to several hundred thousand dollars. Prime contractors such as Coronet Machinery Corp., MSP Aviation, and Merrill Technologies Group have been frequent awardees, predominantly small businesses located in states like Connecticut, Indiana, and Michigan. Most task orders are firm fixed-price delivery orders with completion periods ranging from a few months to approximately two years. The majority of task orders are not set aside for specific socioeconomic categories, though a significant number are designated as Total Small Business. Common product types include composite tubes, studs, machine shop components, battery holders, and specific parts for ALE-47 and ALE-48 countermeasure dispensing systems, with the Naval Sea Systems Command (NAVSEA) being the primary funding agency.
