Plate assembly

The Defense Logistics Agency Aviation is procuring 28 units of plate assembly components under NSN 1615000706821 through a Request for Quote (RFQ) process. This procurement falls under the Other Aircraft Parts and Auxiliary Equipment Manufacturing industry category and specifically targets aerospace craft components and accessories. The solicitation restricts approved sources to part numbers 97499 204-040-349-009 and 97499 204-040-349-9, indicating specific technical requirements for these aircraft parts. All responsible sources may submit quotes, but submissions must be made electronically as hard copies are not available and no specifications, plans, or drawings are provided separately. The critical deadline for quote submission is August 27, 2025, giving potential contractors eight days from the posting date to prepare and submit their responses.

This opportunity does not utilize any set-aside designation, making it open to all qualified contractors regardless of socioeconomic status. The contract requires delivery to DLA Distribution location W1A8 within 171 days after delivery order (ADO), establishing both the performance location and timeline expectations. While the solicitation does not specify award values or budget ranges, the quantity requirement of 28 units suggests a relatively modest procurement volume for these specialized aircraft components. The electronic-only submission requirement and the reference to approved source codes indicate this is likely a straightforward commercial item procurement with established technical specifications. No incumbent contractors are identified in the notice, and the streamlined RFQ format suggests the agency expects competitive pricing from qualified suppliers already familiar with these particular plate assembly components.
