About this opportunity

The Defense Logistics Agency Aviation is seeking to procure Supplemental Armor for C-130 aircraft through an Indefinite Quantity Contract (IQC). The specific item is an armor component with National Stock Number 1560-014346362, manufactured exclusively by Foster-Miller, Inc. with part number 50551502. The procurement will be conducted as an unrestricted solicitation, meaning it is open to all qualified vendors. The complete solicitation will be available on the DLA Internet Bid Board System (DIBBS) on or about April 11, 2025, with proposals due by May 8, 2025. Interested vendors must download the solicitation from the DIBBS website using Adobe Acrobat Reader, as no paper copies will be distributed.

The contract will have a base period of 5 years with zero option periods and an estimated annual quantity of 1,320 units. Delivery is specified as 300 days after receipt of order, with inspection and acceptance to occur at the destination and FOB terms set at origin. While no specific set-aside has been designated, the procurement appears targeted at a specific manufacturer. The estimated annual value is not explicitly stated, but the volume of 1,320 units suggests a potentially significant contract. Vendors should carefully review the solicitation requirements, as the procurement is limited to the specific armor component manufactured by Foster-Miller, Inc., which may restrict competitive bidding.
