About this opportunity
The Defense Logistics Agency Aviation seeks to procure two integrated panel assemblies for C-5 aircraft through a firm fixed price request for proposal under sole source authority. The requirement covers the C-5 AFCS (Automatic Flight Control System) Integrated Panel and the CNP (Communications and Navigation Panel) Integrated Panel, which provide critical flight control functionality and redundant system architecture through dual General Purpose Panel Interface stack assemblies and independent power and lighting buses. The Government will evaluate proposals based on the contractor's ability to meet configuration control requirements, maintain performance specifications, and ensure equipment compatibility with existing C-5 systems. Notably, no formal evaluation criteria have been detailed in this pre-solicitation notice, as the procurement is designated as sole source. The Government intends to release the RFP on or before February 11, 2026, with a pre-solicitation notice deadline of February 6, 2026 for interested parties to submit inquiries or clarifications.
This procurement includes no set-aside designations and is anticipated to be awarded solely to Ducommun Labarge Technologies, Inc. (CAGE 08719), the current equipment manufacturer and sole known source capable of producing these components. The Government does not possess any technical data, drawings, or schematics and relies entirely on the incumbent contractor's proprietary knowledge and capabilities for production and qualification. The total requirement encompasses 25 units of each panel type, with a delivery schedule of five units annually over a five-year period, resulting in 50 total panel units across both part numbers. The specific National Stock Numbers are 5998-01-599-8134UC for the AFCS panel and 5998-01-599-9341UC for the CNP panel, with no budget range or award value specified in this announcement.
