The Defense Logistics Agency Aviation is soliciting quotes for Structural Aluminum Plates (NSN 1560011526410) through a Request for Quotation (RFQ). The procurement falls under the Aerospace Craft and Structural Components category and is intended for supply to aircraft parts and auxiliary equipment manufacturing operations. This is an open solicitation in which all responsible sources may submit quotes, with emphasis on timely electronic submission. The evaluation will prioritize competitive pricing and the ability to meet delivery requirements to the DLA Distribution Depot Oklahoma within 171 days after order placement. The deadline for quote submission is November 26, 2025, providing an 8-day window from the posting date of November 18, 2025, and specifications, plans, and drawings are not available, requiring contractors to reference the approved sources and solicitation details provided electronically.

This procurement is designated as a Total Small Business set-aside, restricting competition to small business concerns. The solicitation specifies a requirement for 39 units, with nine approved sources listed for the Structural Aluminum Plates, including vendors identified by codes 06DM5, 0C7H8, 0P657, 1P642, 1QJK4, 29957, 2V045, 59213, and 81205. The contract requires delivery to DLA Distribution Depot Oklahoma, with performance expected within 171 days from award. While no specific budget value is disclosed in the notice, the relatively modest quantity of 39 units suggests a smaller contract value appropriate for the small business set-aside designation. All submissions must be completed electronically, and hard copies of the solicitation are unavailable, necessitating contractor access to the online bidding platform provided.
