About this opportunity
The Defense Logistics Agency Aviation is seeking to procure 12 Central Controller units (NSN: 1560-01-722-3028, Part Number: 724VS203-2) for the CH-47 Chinook helicopter under a firm fixed price contract. This procurement is restricted to only two qualified sources: The Boeing Company (CAGE Code: 77272) and Lord Corporation (CAGE Code: 1L965), as the government does not own the rights to the technical data required for additional sources and considers reverse engineering uneconomical. All potential offerors must meet prequalification requirements to be eligible for award, and firms are encouraged to seek source approval through the Army Aviation and Missile Command's website for future competition opportunities. The solicitation closing date is estimated for September 29, 2025, though this may be adjusted based on the actual solicitation release date. All communication must be directed to Contract Specialist Barry A. Barnett via email, with no telephone requests accepted.
This procurement does not utilize any small business set-aside designations and operates as an unrestricted competition among the two qualified sources. The production lead time varies significantly depending on testing requirements: 405 days after contract award when First Article Testing is required, or 270 days when such testing is not needed. All deliveries will be made to Tinker Air Force Base in Oklahoma. The solicitation reference number is AX5C0688AX, and foreign firms must process their requests through their respective embassies. The procurement falls under NAICS code 336413 for Other Aircraft Parts and Auxiliary Equipment Manufacturing and PSC code 1560 for Airframe Structural Components.
