About this opportunity
The Federal Aviation Administration, En Route Construction Group, is conducting a market survey to identify LED light fixtures meeting FAA specifications and Buy American Preference compliance, with responses due by 5:00 PM PT on July 29, 2026.
This is an informational survey only; no contract will be awarded and vendors will receive no reimbursement for submission costs. Responses will inform FAA planning and procurement strategy for future solicitations.
Fixtures must comply with FAA LED Lighting Specification No. FAA-E-37018, which mandates UL listing, RoHS compliance, FCC Title 47 Part 15 Class B rating, a minimum 50,000-hour lifespan (68,000 hours L70 for troffers), Color Rendering Index of 80, and either 3000K or 4000K color temperature depending on fixture type. Optional emergency battery backup is required as an offering. All steel and manufactured goods must be domestically produced under the FAA Buy American Preference clause, which applies unless the FAA Acquisition Executive determines an exception applies based on public interest, domestic unavailability, component cost thresholds exceeding 60 percent, or cost increases exceeding 25 percent.
The FAA seeks LED flat panel troffers in 6"x4', 1'x4', 2'x4', and 2'x2' sizes with T-grid, drywall, surface, unistrut, and suspended mounting options. Dimmable recessed downlights in 3", 4", 6", and 8" sizes at 4000K are also sought, along with wrap/shop lights in surface and suspended configurations at 5000K in 4' linkable lengths.
