Air New Zealand Engineering Services

Air New Zealand Engineering Services is an international for-profit organization that provides specialized engineering services, primarily focused on the overhaul and maintenance of aviation and marine gas turbine engines. The company has received multiple federal contract awards as a prime contractor from the Department of the Navy's Naval Sea Systems Command and Naval Supply Systems Command to support operational readiness of naval assets.

Specifically, Air New Zealand Engineering Services has been awarded over $90 million in federal contracts since 2019 to provide depot-level overhaul, repair and maintenance services for LM2500 marine gas turbine engines, modules and components used to power surface ships, submarines and naval auxiliaries. This has encompassed major overhaul work on the LM2500 Single Shank Turbines, Paired Blade Turbines and Power Turbine Assemblies that generate propulsion for many Navy destroyers, cruisers, frigates, replenishment ships and other vessels. Additionally, the company has provided procurement and repair services for specific LM2500 gas turbine parts, frames, seals, shafts, blades and retainers used in engine assembly. Performance locations have included contractor facilities in New Zealand, with delivery orders issued on a fixed-price basis without set-aside provisions.

Air New Zealand Engineering Services also holds multiple Indefinite Delivery/Indefinite Quantity Contracts for LM2500 overhaul work, including three Naval Sea Systems Command IDVs for LM2500 Power Turbine Assemblies, Single Shank Turbines and Paired Blade Turbines providing up to $210 million in potential capacity. Additionally, the company was issued a $14.76 million delivery order under one of these IDVs to conduct a major LM2500 Single Shank Turbine overhaul effort through May 2023. The IDVs were awarded as multiple award vehicles to validate and leverage commercial best practices for depot maintenance of these critical ship propulsion systems.
