Rivet, blind

The Defense Logistics Agency Aviation is soliciting quotes for blind rivets, specifically NSN 5320013391954, through a Request for Quotation (RFQ) process open to all responsible sources. This procurement may result in an Automated Indefinite Delivery Contract with a one-year term or until aggregate orders reach $350,000, whichever occurs first. The contract will include a guaranteed minimum quantity of 107 units, with an estimated 10 orders placed annually. All quotes must be submitted electronically, and digitized drawings along with applicable Military Specifications and Standards are available electronically rather than in hard copy format. The solicitation was posted on January 27, 2026, with a quote due date of February 11, 2026, providing interested contractors approximately two weeks to prepare and submit their responses.

This is a Total Small Business set-aside, restricting competition to small business concerns as defined by the Small Business Administration. The initial requirement calls for 1,072 units of blind rivets to be delivered within 99 days, with subsequent shipments directed to various Defense Logistics Agency depots located throughout the continental United States and overseas locations via consolidation and containerization points. The hardware manufacturing classification (NAICS 332510) and Hardware and Abrasives product service code (PSC 53) define the scope of this procurement. While no specific incumbent contractor is identified in this notice, the contract structure and delivery requirements indicate an ongoing requirement for standardized fastening hardware to support Defense Logistics Agency aviation operations and maintenance activities. The estimated contract value of up to $350,000 represents the ceiling for total obligations under this indefinite delivery arrangement.
