Safran Actuation Systems UK LIMITED

Goodrich Actuation Systems LIMITED, doing business as UTC Aerospace Systems, is a United Kingdom-based foreign-owned subsidiary of RTX Corporation that manufactures aerospace actuation systems and flight-critical components as a prime contractor to the U.S. Department of Defense, principally the Navy and Defense Logistics Agency. The vendor holds no set-aside certifications and competes full-and-open across all federal awards, with 85% of recent activity as a prime contractor and 15% as a subcontractor.

The vendor's federal footprint centers on specialized aerospace components for military aviation platforms. Goodrich supplies servo cylinders, actuators, lock pins, control modules, diaphragm rings, protective dust caps, variable filter screens, junction boxes, lever assemblies, and related precision hardware — most fabricated at its manufacturing facility in Great Britain and shipped to U.S. military depots. Representative prime work includes a $2.03 million delivery order from Naval Supply Systems Command (awarded November 6, 2025) for actuator assemblies with lock pins supporting V-22 Osprey and AV-8B Harrier II aircraft, a $950.49 million delivery order from Naval Supply Systems Command (awarded October 28, 2024) for actuator assemblies and lock pins, and a $1.88 million delivery order from Naval Supply Systems Command (awarded November 21, 2022) for the same component family. DLA Aviation awards tend to be smaller purchase orders: a $294.88 thousand order for parts kit control systems assemblies (February 12, 2026), a $175.09 thousand order for parts kit control systems (March 25, 2026), and recurring orders under $100 thousand for fasteners, springs, seals, and filters.

Customer concentration is heavily skewed toward Naval Supply Systems Command and DLA Aviation. NAVSUP accounts for 50 awards valued at $43.8 million in combined potential value, while DLA Aviation represents 63 awards (mostly purchase orders) with $1.6 million in combined potential value. Together, these two customers represent 90% of recent award count and effectively 100% of award value. The Department of Homeland Security U.S. Coast Guard has placed four awards totaling $1.6 million. Goodrich also holds subcontract positions supporting Raytheon Company on guided missile and space vehicle programs (control actuation systems for Standard Missile and SM-6 variants, awarded January 2026 and December 2025), Lockheed Martin Corporation on guided multiple-launch rocket system components (control section assemblies for GMLRS), and Bell Boeing Joint Project Office on V-22 Osprey sustainment work (propulsion and systems components, awarded December 2023 and April 2025).

The vendor's primary vehicle position is a five-year Basic Ordering Agreement with Naval Supply Systems Command (established March 8, 2022, extending through March 8, 2027), under which 18 task orders have been placed for $10.6 million in combined potential value. NAVSUP has also delegated ordering authority to DLA Aviation under this same BOA, enabling rapid procurement of components identified by national stock number. A second BOA (N0038317GAJ01) supports an additional 16 task orders valued at $8 million. These sole-source vehicles reflect Goodrich's incumbent status as a specialized supplier for flight-critical actuation hardware with no competing domestic alternative for many components.

Activity has grown modestly year over year — 15 awards in 2022 to 23 in 2025 — with six awards in the first quarter of 2026. Only four awards carrying $2.6 million in combined potential value face ultimate completion within the next twenty-four months, indicating limited near-term recompete exposure. Goodrich's subcontract work routes through major primes including Raytheon Company, Lockheed Martin Corporation, and Boeing, with roles focused on control actuation systems, structural components, and specialized assemblies for missile, rocket, and rotorcraft programs. NAICS coding is dominated by Other Aircraft Parts and Auxiliary Equipment Manufacturing (71 awards), with secondary presence in Bolt, Nut, Screw, Rivet, and Washer Manufacturing (10 awards) and Guided Missile and Space Vehicle Manufacturing (10 awards). PSC coding concentrates on Miscellaneous Aircraft Accessories and Components (43 awards) and Aircraft Hydraulic, Vacuum, and De-Icing System Components (15 awards).
