WOSB Set-Aside - Environmental Control Unit (ECU) for the Bradley Fighting Vehicle

The Defense Logistics Agency Aviation is procuring Environmental Control Units (ECUs) and Power Control Modules (PCM 3) for the Bradley Fighting Vehicle through a two-year Indefinite Delivery/Indefinite Quantity (IDIQ) contract. The solicitation requires delivery of 184 ECUs and 184 PCM 3 units in Year One, and 125 ECUs and 125 PCM 3 units in Year Two, with deliveries scheduled at 20 units per month. Offerors must possess ISO 9000 certification and American Welding Society certifications, and must submit proposals in three volumes including technical certifications and pricing spreadsheets. The contract will be awarded using a Lowest Price Technically Acceptable (LPTA) evaluation methodology, with the Total Evaluated Price calculated using Best Estimated Quantities across four quantity ranges (1-50, 51-100, 101-150, and 151-200 units). The original proposal deadline was August 8, 2025, with questions accepted until July 3, 2025, though the solicitation was amended on July 10, 2025.

This procurement is designated as a Women-Owned Small Business (WOSB) set-aside under NAICS code 333415 with a size standard of 1,250 employees, though the opportunity description indicates "No Set-Aside Used." The contract establishes a minimum guaranteed order of 50 units total over two years with a maximum of 400 units, using a tiered pricing structure that decreases per-unit costs as quantities increase. The pricing methodology requires offerors to provide comprehensive unit prices that include all costs for packaging, shipping, contract deliverables, and overall contract management. Performance will take place in Huntsville, Alabama, with the contract period extending through September 2027 and potential for order completion beyond that date. The government has indicated willingness to support small businesses through progress payments at the delivery order level, and all materials must be vendor-purchased as no Government Furnished Equipment will be provided.
