Goodrich Corporation

Goodrich Corporation Collins Aerospace, Landing Systems (Wheels & Brakes) Division, doing business as Collins Aerospace, manufactures aircraft landing gear components, wheels, brakes, hydraulic systems, and thermal management parts for military aviation platforms as a prime contractor (98% of awards) to the Department of Defense. The company is a wholly owned subsidiary of RTX Corporation (formerly United Technologies Inc.), headquartered in Troy, Ohio, and operates without SBA set-aside designations, competing in full-and-open procurements. Goodrich is classified as a large business entity under NAICS 332612 (Other Aircraft Parts and Auxiliary Equipment Manufacturing) and PSC 1670 (Aircraft Wheel and Brake Systems), with a primary mission to support depot maintenance, overhaul, and sustainment operations for the U.S. military's aviation fleet.

Goodrich's customer footprint is heavily concentrated within Air Force logistics and maintenance ecosystems. The top three funding agencies account for approximately 93% of recent awards and 99% of combined potential value: the Department of the Air Force Materiel Command's Ogden Air Logistics Complex leads by dollar volume (801 awards, $2.09 billion combined potential value), followed by Defense Logistics Agency Aviation (6,398 awards, $381.8 million), and the Air Force Sustainment Center (243 awards, $137 million). This concentration reflects Goodrich's strategic role as a primary supplier of landing gear systems and brake components for the F-15E Heat Sink Exchange Program and similar depot-level maintenance contracts. The Naval Air Systems Command (132 awards, $60.9 million) and Naval Supply Systems Command (94 awards, $23.9 million) round out the active customer set, representing naval aviation sustainment work.

Goodrich holds a single major indefinite delivery contract: the F-15E Heat Sink Exchange Program IDC awarded February 15, 2024, by the Ogden Air Logistics Complex, valued at $76.3 million and running through February 14, 2030, with place of performance in Santa Fe Springs, California. This vehicle generates the majority of Goodrich's large-dollar task orders. Recent representative awards include a $5.19 million delivery order for torque plate assemblies (December 15, 2025), a $3.8 million order for F-15 weapon system components (March 26, 2026), a $12.5 million delivery order for C-130 weapon system components (March 3, 2026), and a $1.23 million order for F-16 piston housing assemblies (March 24, 2026). Goodrich also executes numerous smaller component delivery orders through Defense Logistics Agency Aviation's indefinite delivery vehicles—including IDCs SPE4AX18D9416 (4,468 task orders, $661.7 million), F4263002D0011 (1,847 task orders, $327.9 million), and SPM4AX10D9402 (1,015 task orders, $254.2 million)—supplying wheels, retaining rings, o-rings, gaskets, seals, hydraulic pistons, brake components, heat shields, and fasteners in order values typically between $1 thousand and $300 thousand.

Activity has remained stable to slightly declining in the recent period: 703 awards in 2024, 630 in 2025, and 118 year-to-date in 2026. Within the next twenty-four months, 141 awards (combined potential value $241.3 million) reach ultimate completion date and face recompete exposure, representing a moderate recompete cliff. Goodrich's award portfolio is characterized by extremely high volume—8,765 total awards across the source data—but also by fragmentation: the top NAICS categories are Other Aircraft Parts and Auxiliary Equipment Manufacturing (7,827 awards) and Other Support Activities for Air Transportation (105 awards), while the top PSC is Aircraft Wheel and Brake Systems (3,719 awards) and Packing and Gasket Materials (1,013 awards). This high-count, low-individual-value pattern reflects the nature of aviation sustainment procurement, where Goodrich acts as a scheduled supplier for routine parts replenishment across multiple military platforms.

As a subcontractor, Goodrich supplies aircraft maintenance materials and landing gear components to Vertex Aerospace (T45 Contractor Logistics Support task orders for aircraft maintenance) and provides Global Hawk and Triton sustainment components to Northrop Grumman Systems Corporation. The subcontract work is modest in volume (144 awards or 2% of the total portfolio) and secondary to Goodrich's dominant prime contractor posture. Goodrich competes in full-and-open procurements across all work, with no characteristic set-aside usage. The company's federal footprint is anchored to Air Force Materiel Command's depot logistics infrastructure and DLA Aviation's aircraft component supply chain, positioning it as a sole or preferred supplier for specialized landing gear and thermal management components across the F-15E, F-16, C-130, and naval trainer aircraft platforms.
