Rod, piston, actuator

The Defense Logistics Agency Aviation is seeking to procure 114 units of piston actuator rods under National Stock Number 1680010553344. This procurement is structured as a Request for Quote (RFQ) that will be made available through an electronic link, with no hard copies or additional specifications provided. The approved source for this aircraft component is identified as manufacturer 98391 with part number 1211178-133, though all responsible sources are invited to submit quotes. The solicitation falls under NAICS code 336413 for Other Aircraft Parts and Auxiliary Equipment Manufacturing and PSC category 16 for Aerospace Craft Components and Accessories. Quotes must be submitted by August 14, 2025, giving potential contractors a ten-day response window from the August 4, 2025 posting date.

This opportunity is designated as a Total Small Business set-aside, restricting competition to qualifying small business entities. The procurement requires delivery of all 114 units to the DLA Distribution Depot Hill within 175 days after date of order (ADO). No incumbent contractors or previous award values are specified in the solicitation notice. The relatively short delivery timeline and specific approved source suggest this may be a time-sensitive replacement or maintenance procurement for military aircraft systems. Electronic quote submission is available, streamlining the proposal process for interested small business contractors operating in the aerospace manufacturing sector.
