CFM International Inc.

CFM International Inc., a joint venture between GE Aviation and Safran Aircraft Engines, supplies aircraft engine components and specialized aviation parts to the Department of Defense as a prime contractor on a full-and-open competitive basis, with no SBA set-aside activity across its federal footprint. The company operates primarily through delivery orders against a $7.7 billion Indefinite Delivery Contract extending through October 31, 2034, and a $20 million Basic Ordering Agreement running through March 25, 2031. Performance occurs at facilities in Liberty Township and West Chester Township, Ohio, and Covington and Edgewood, Kentucky, with work supporting the Defense Logistics Agency Aviation, the Air Force Sustainment Center, and Naval Air Systems Command.

CFM International's capability portfolio centers on specialized aircraft engine components and structural assemblies for military platforms equipped with the F108 engine. Representative recent work includes a $10.6 million delivery order from DoD Aviation on September 24, 2025, for engine air cleanup kits (CPUP KIT, ENGINE, AIR) completion on April 30, 2026; a $42.66 million delivery order from the Air Force Sustainment Center on September 15, 2025, for fan blade sets in support of the F108 engine with completion by July 31, 2027; and a $15.67 million delivery order from the Air Force Sustainment Center on March 11, 2026, for compressor and air case components with completion by February 29, 2028. Concrete component types procured include fan frames, compressor disks, turbine rotors, inlet cones, fuel manifolds, seals, bearings, junction boxes, fairings, and miscellaneous mechanical assemblies including brackets, tubes, and gaskets. The company also delivers maintenance support, engineering services, and power-by-the-hour management fees for the F108 engine platform.

Customer concentration is extreme and single-threaded to Defense Logistics Agency Aviation. DLA Aviation accounts for 7,408 awards (92% of the prime footprint) and $11.04 billion in combined potential value (75% of total potential value). The remaining portfolio splits across Air Force Sustainment Center (455 awards, $1.57 billion), Air Force Materiel Command (643 awards, $1.55 billion), Naval Air Systems Command (35 awards, $381.8 million), and Navy Supply Systems Command (76 awards, $23.5 million). The top-five customers by potential value cover 100% of the award portfolio, underscoring the vendor's narrow customer base and deep anchoring to military aviation sustainment for the F108 engine family used in the Boeing C-40 Clipper, 737 AEW&C, P-8 Poseidon, and E-6B aircraft.

CFM International places work under two primary parent vehicles: the $7.7 billion Indefinite Delivery Contract SPE4AX17D9403 (4,543 task orders, $2.51 billion potential value) and the $20 million Basic Ordering Agreement SPRTA114G0002 (1,368 task orders, $126.9 million potential value). Additional smaller vehicles include Indefinite Delivery Contract FA810408G0002 (1,154 task orders, $389.5 million), Basic Ordering Agreement SPRTA111G0001 (1,097 task orders, $297.3 million), and Indefinite Delivery Contract FA810404G0001 (701 task orders, $44.5 million). Nearly all volume runs through the primary $7.7 billion IDC.

Activity has declined significantly: 504 awards in 2022, 488 in 2023, 364 in 2024, 218 in 2025, and 100 in the first eight months of 2026. The recompete cliff over the next twenty-four months presents moderate exposure, with 55 awards (combined potential value $246.3 million) reaching ultimate completion and therefore facing potential recompete. CFM International's top NAICS concentration is 336412 (Aircraft Engine and Engine Parts Manufacturing), which accounts for 9,650 of 10,545 total awards; top PSC is Gas Turbines And Jet Engines, Aircraft, Prime Moving; And Components, representing 4,774 awards. Subcontracting footprint is negligible: only 10 sub-awards identified, with V2X Aerospace LLC appearing as a prime on E-6B Contractor Logistics Support follow-on task orders to which CFM International subcontracts.

CFM International is a child entity of General Electric Company, structured as a corporate joint venture between GE Aviation (GE's aviation division) and Safran Aircraft Engines (a French multinational). The vendor competes on a full-and-open competitive basis with no SBA set-aside activity, positioning it as a high-volume, single-source supplier anchored to defense sustainment of the F108 engine platform across multiple military branches.
