Aircraft Air Conditioning, Heating, And Pressurizing Equipment

Product Service Code (PSC) 1660 encompasses aircraft air conditioning, heating, and pressurizing equipment components critical to aerospace and military aviation systems. These specialized components include air ducts, heat exchangers, oxygen systems, valves, regulators, and related auxiliary equipment designed to manage environmental conditions and life support systems in aircraft. The components are essential for maintaining operational capabilities, crew safety, and aircraft performance across various military and commercial platforms.

Federal Contract Awards in this PSC category predominantly feature fixed-price purchase orders and delivery orders ranging from several thousand to nearly $10 million, frequently awarded to established aerospace manufacturers like Honeywell International, Collins Aerospace, Essex Industries, and Bell Boeing Joint Project Office. Most awards originate from the Defense Logistics Agency (DLA) Aviation and Naval Supply Systems Command, targeting military aircraft such as F-15, F-16, HC-27J, HC-144, and C-5 Galaxy platforms. The awards demonstrate a mixture of set-aside designations, with approximately 70% being unrestricted and 30% reserved for small businesses, including service-disabled veteran-owned, women-owned, and minority-owned enterprises. Delivery locations are primarily within the United States, with performance locations concentrated in states like California, Oklahoma, and Massachusetts.

Federal Contract Opportunities in this PSC category predominantly seek new manufacture, repair, and overhaul of aircraft environmental control system components. Recent opportunities include procurements for oxygen analyzers, cabin pressure selectors, air ducts, heat exchangers, and oxygen masks, with quantities ranging from 1 to 634 units. The solicitations are primarily issued by the Defense Logistics Agency Aviation and Naval Supply Systems Command, targeting aircraft like F-16, P-8, B-1, and C-5. Most opportunities are unrestricted, falling under NAICS code 336413 for Other Aircraft Parts and Auxiliary Equipment Manufacturing, with delivery timelines typically spanning 200-700 days after order receipt. Performance locations are predominantly at military installations such as Tinker Air Force Base in Oklahoma and various naval logistics centers.
