About the company
BAE Systems (Operations) LIMITED, a UK-based foreign-owned manufacturing subsidiary of BAE Systems PLC, supplies precision-manufactured aerospace and defense components to the U.S. Department of Defense as a prime contractor on delivery orders and as a subcontractor to major defense primes, competing on a full-and-open, non-set-aside basis across all awards.
The vendor's federal footprint is almost entirely subcontractor work — 59% of the 1,225 recent awards are sub-awards — with the remaining 41% concentrated in direct prime delivery orders and a single Basic Ordering Agreement (BOA) with Defense. Place of performance for all work is Blackburn BB2, United Kingdom. BAE Systems (Operations) LIMITED manufactures aircraft structural components, fasteners, seals, gaskets, bushings, brackets, and auxiliary equipment supporting military rotary-wing and fixed-wing platforms. Representative prime delivery orders include a $292,843.93 order from Defense Logistics Agency (DLA) Aviation on March 12, 2026, for void filler kit sets; a $73,448.22 order from DLA Aviation on December 2, 2025, for machine screws; and a $19,860.06 order from DLA Land and Maritime on November 13, 2025, for mounting brackets. The vendor holds a $9,999,999.00 BOA with Defense (awarded June 3, 2025, extending through June 3, 2030) that anchors ongoing supply of specialized aircraft parts and components.
Customer concentration is extreme. Department of the Navy Naval Air Systems Command (NAVAIR) accounts for the vast majority of recent awards by count — 698 awards out of 1,225 — but the value concentration differs markedly. DLA Aviation leads in combined potential value with 284 awards worth $12.4 million, followed by DLA Document Services (1 award, $10 million for the BOA itself), Department of the Navy Naval Supply Systems Command (28 awards, $7.8 million), and Defense Advanced Research Projects Agency (1 award, $6.6 million for an Other Transaction Indefinite Delivery Vehicle supporting the Control of Revolutionary Aircraft with Novel Effectors — CRANE — program). DLA Land and Maritime contributes 167 awards valued at $2.5 million. These five customers or components account for 96% of combined potential value and 98% of award count.
The vendor's prime work flows almost entirely through the BOA SPRPA120G001R (387 task orders, $6.3 million combined potential value) and NAVAIR's Strategic Sourcing for CMMARS vehicle (262 task orders). Additional vehicles include BOA SPRMM125GSC01 (47 task orders, $530 thousand) and various IDCs issued by the Navy. Award activity was strong in 2024 (334 awards) but has moderated substantially in 2025 (185 awards) and 2026 to date (10 awards as of mid-May), reflecting a seasonal or procurement-cycle pattern rather than sustained growth or decline. Only 29 awards (combined potential value $1.2 million) face ultimate completion within the next twenty-four months, creating minimal recompete exposure in the near term.
The vendor operates almost exclusively as a subcontractor to Vertex Aerospace LLC and Lockheed Martin Corporation on major platform sustainment and production work. The Vertex sub-award footprint is dominated by T45 Goshawk aircraft maintenance materials tasks under the CMMARS contract vehicle, with dozens of task orders issued between June 2024 and May 2026. The Lockheed Martin sub-award activity is concentrated on F-35 Joint Strike Fighter production and sustainment, including Lot 18 procurement, long-lead funding, and fuel-system and structural-component manufacturing. Boeing Company sub-awards involve OEM sustainment and major structures work. This teaming posture — the vendor as a specialized component supplier rather than prime integrator — is consistent across the footprint. SCI data is minimal and uninformative (three records, 2022–2024, with only 1.2 to 18.3 FTEs reported across sub contracts), indicating that the vendor's federal work is predominantly goods procurement, small-value delivery orders, and classified or unclassified manufacturing not captured in the service-contract inventory.
