About this opportunity
The U.S. Coast Guard is soliciting quotations for the purchase of landing lights for the HC-144 aircraft under Request for Quotation (RFQ) 70Z03826QL0000016. Specifically, the agency is seeking two units of the LIGHT LNDG VIS/IR (NSN 6220-01-483-2342, part number 50-0324-1) manufactured by Grimes Aerospace Company. All items must demonstrate clear traceability to the Original Equipment Manufacturer (OEM) through documented and auditable paper trails. Key contract requirements include the submission of Certificates of Conformance (COC) from the OEM, new manufactured commercial items, and proper packaging and labeling for aviation use. Evaluation will be based on three primary factors: technical acceptability with manufacturer certification, delivery performance with preference for expedited delivery within 60 calendar days, and pricing on a firm-fixed price basis with FOB destination preferred. The solicitation deadline for quotations is December 2, 2025, with the notice posted on November 26, 2025.
This procurement is designated as a Total Small Business Set Aside, limiting competition to small business concerns with a size standard of 1,250 employees under NAICS code 336413. The solicitation anticipates awarding a single firm-fixed price purchase order on a competitive basis; no specific incumbent or current contractor is identified in the notice. While no explicit budget range is disclosed in the available documentation, the requirement encompasses two units of the specialized landing light assembly. Offerors who are not the OEM must provide traceability documentation back to Grimes Aerospace Company or an authorized distributor. The place of performance and delivery location will be specified in the final purchase order, with the standard delivery expectation being within 60 calendar days of purchase order receipt, though faster delivery may result in higher evaluation scores.
