Stabilizer, vertical

The Defense Logistics Agency Aviation is procuring 8 units of vertical stabilizers under NSN 1560017144261 through a Request for Quote (RFQ) process. This is a source-controlled drawing item with only two approved sources: 80201 7-611114253-001 and 80201 B60-80-9984, meaning suppliers must meet specific engineering drawing requirements. The procurement falls under NAICS code 336413 for Other Aircraft Parts and Auxiliary Equipment Manufacturing and PSC category 15 for Aerospace Craft and Structural Components. All quotes must be submitted electronically, and the items must comply with the technical specifications outlined in the solicitation drawing. The solicitation was posted on September 17, 2025, with a quote submission deadline of September 25, 2025, providing only 8 days for response preparation.

This opportunity does not utilize any set-aside designations, making it open to all responsible sources that can demonstrate compliance with the approved source requirements. The contract specifies delivery to DLA Distribution location W1A8 within 352 days after date of order (ADO). While no specific contract value is mentioned in the notice, the procurement involves 8 individual stabilizer units that must meet stringent military specifications. The solicitation documents, including digitized drawings and military standards, are available electronically rather than in hard copy format. Given the source-controlled nature and approved supplier limitations, this appears to be a specialized aerospace component with restricted manufacturing sources, typical of critical aircraft safety components requiring precise engineering specifications.
