Lighting Fixtures, Lamps

PSC Category 62 encompasses lighting fixtures, lamps, and related electrical components for military, aviation, and logistics applications. These products include various types of lights such as indicator lights, navigational lights, searchlight hoods, landing lights, and emergency lighting systems. The category covers both new manufacturing and specialized repair services for critical lighting equipment used across different military and government operational environments.

Federal contract awards in this category are predominantly managed by the Defense Logistics Agency (DLA) Aviation and Troop Support, with most opportunities being small business set-asides. Contract values typically range from $250,000 to potentially higher depending on the specific requirements, with contract durations generally spanning one year. Frequent award recipients appear to include specialized small businesses in electric lamp and lighting equipment manufacturing, with many contracts specifying approved sources or manufacturers. Performance locations are primarily distributed across various military and logistics depots within the Continental United States (CONUS) and Outside Continental United States (OCONUS) locations.

Recent contract opportunities focus on procuring specific lighting components for military and aviation applications, with solicitations from agencies like the Department of the Navy, Coast Guard, and Defense Logistics Agency. Most opportunities involve precise quantities of specialized lighting equipment, ranging from 2 to 1,827 units per solicitation. These opportunities consistently require electronic quote submissions, have specific delivery timelines (typically 50-347 days after order), and often mandate compliance with strict technical specifications, FAA certifications, and military standards. Common set-aside types include Total Small Business, Service-Disabled Veteran-Owned Small Business, and HUBZone designations, reflecting a strategic approach to supporting diverse small business participation in government contracting.
