The Defense Logistics Agency Aviation is seeking to procure Aircraft Diverter Strips (NSN 1680-015818046) for the E-2C Hawkeye aircraft. This indefinite quantity contract (IQC) will be issued as an unrestricted procurement and will include a reverse auction component, which means offerors are encouraged to register with the PROCUREX system in advance to participate. The solicitation will be available on the DLA Internet Bid Board System (DIBBS) beginning November 25, 2025, and interested parties should submit questions to the reverse auction program manager at dlaavnrevauc@dla.mil. Bidders should note that inspection and acceptance will occur at the origin, with delivery required 45 days after the date of order and FOB designated at destination. The reverse auction procurement note (L09) is a significant evaluation component, as it may be used to determine pricing competitiveness among qualified offerors.

This procurement carries no set-aside designation and is an unrestricted competition. The current manufacturers identified are Northrop Grumman Systems Corp (under part number 60979-1232) and Lightning Diversion Systems LLC (under part number LDS10-01-64-1-OV-00W-1232). The contract will be structured as a five-year base period with zero options and an estimated annual quantity of 40 units, resulting in a total anticipated volume of 200 aircraft diverter strips over the contract period. The pre-solicitation notice posting date was November 10, 2025, with the solicitation due date of November 25, 2025, marking the formal issuance of the request for proposals. While no specific budget range or award value is disclosed in this pre-solicitation notice, the annual quantity and multi-year term provide a framework for potential offerors to estimate contract value.
