About this opportunity

The Defense Logistics Agency (DLA) Aviation is seeking to procure Aft Radome Antenna RAM Shrouds for the B-2 aircraft through a pre-solicitation notice for Solicitation Number SPRTA1-24-R-0126. The shrouds are constructed of specialized fiberglass/epoxy and polyamide paper/phenolic resin honeycomb materials and are used to reduce the radar cross-section of electronic equipment within the aft radome antenna cavity. A firm-fixed price contract is contemplated, with an estimated quantity of 4 production units. The solicitation is scheduled to be issued on May 16, 2024 and will close on June 15, 2024. Interested parties are invited to submit capability statements, proposals, or quotations, which will be considered by the government.

This procurement is not set-aside for any particular business category. Northrop Grumman Systems Corporation is identified as the qualified source. The required delivery date for the production units is on or before April 12, 2026, after government approval of the First Article. The proposed contract action is intended to be a sole-source award in accordance with the applicable Federal Acquisition Regulation, though the government reserves the right to conduct a competitive procurement based on the responses received.
