L3Harris Technologies, Inc.

L3Harris Technologies, Inc., SAS1 Division, operating as L3Harris Technologies, is a large business defense contractor competing full-and-open (no SBA set-asides) as a prime contractor across military avionics, aircraft component repair, electronic flight instruments, and display systems for the Department of Defense, Department of the Navy, Department of the Coast Guard, and the Defense Logistics Agency. The SAS1 Division is a subsidiary of parent company L3Harris Technologies, Inc., headquartered in Melbourne, Florida; the division operates from facilities in Milton and Alpharetta, Georgia, and specializes in repair, maintenance, and manufacture of avionics systems and critical aircraft components for military platforms including the C-130 Hercules, UH-60 Black Hawk, F-15E Strike Eagle, CH-47 Chinook, and HC-130J/HC-27J rotorcraft.

Across the past five years, the SAS1 Division has grown from 19 prime awards in 2022 to 188 in 2024, with a portfolio of 1,158 total awards (prime and sub combined) carrying combined potential value of $7.59 billion. Prime awards account for 77% of recent activity; the division competes almost exclusively in full-and-open, unrestricted procurements. Primary capability work is rooted in purchase orders and delivery orders for pressure indicators, inclinometers, display units, electrical control panels, indicator panels, electronic flight instruments, repair and maintenance of avionics systems, and lay-in materials to support long-range surveillance and tactical aircraft. Representative work includes a $3.563 million delivery order from the Air Force Sustainment Center (September 2025) for repair of C-130 electronic flight instrument and radar display unit systems, a $5.256 million delivery order from Army Aviation and Missile Command (September 2024) for UH-60M Black Hawk helicopter display unit components, a $1.193 million delivery order from Naval Supply Systems Command (November 2025) for multiple display systems, and a $10.452 million indefinite-delivery contract awarded by the Air Force Sustainment Center (September 2025) for repair of electronic flight instruments and radar display units through September 2030.

Customer concentration is heavily weighted toward the Department of the Navy and the Department of the Air Force. The top five funding agencies by award count—Coast Guard, Naval Supply Systems Command, Defense Logistics Agency Aviation, Naval Air Systems Command, and Air Force Sustainment Center—account for 62% of recent awards. However, by potential value, Naval Air Warfare Center dominates at $7.14 billion combined across 13 awards, followed distantly by Air Force Sustainment Center ($136.5 million across 102 awards) and Naval Supply Systems Command ($82.4 million across 163 awards). This concentration reflects the SAS1 Division's role as a critical single-source or competitive supplier of specialized avionics components and repair services to a small set of sustainment-focused customer commands.

The division holds three major vehicle positions: a single-award Indefinite Delivery Contract with the Coast Guard (ceiling $5.167 million, through August 2028) for EFI-550 electronic flight instrument repair and component sustainment on long-range surveillance aircraft; a single-award Basic Ordering Agreement with Naval Supply Systems Command (ceiling $5.613 million, through March 2030) for repairs and spare parts on C-130, E-2, and foreign military sales aircraft; and a single-award Indefinite Delivery Contract with the Air Force Sustainment Center (ceiling $10.452 million, through September 2030) for repair of electronic flight instruments and radar display units. Recent ordering activity under these vehicles is robust: six delivery orders placed by Naval Supply Systems Command in November 2025 alone, totaling more than $3.8 million for display units, control panels, and indicator panels.

Activity trajectory shows significant growth through 2024 (188 awards) followed by a moderation in 2025 (104 awards) and into 2026 (18 awards to date). This pattern reflects typical award timing patterns and the source data cutoff at mid-August 2026. The recompete cliff window of the next twenty-four months exposes 23 awards with combined potential value of $12.4 million completing within that timeframe—a modest exposure but relevant to the division's customer-facing risk posture. The top NAICS categories reflect the division's core strength: Other Aircraft Parts and Auxiliary Equipment Manufacturing (474 awards), Aircraft Manufacturing (152 awards), and Search, Detection, Navigation, Guidance, Aeronautical, and Nautical System and Instrument Manufacturing (113 awards); top PSCs include Miscellaneous Aircraft Accessories and Components (239 awards) and Flight Instruments (122 awards).

On the subcontract side, the SAS1 Division subcontracts to prime contractors Boeing (majority of sub awards across C-17, B-52, AH-64, Apache, and F-15 platforms), Lockheed Martin (C-130J, F-35, and advanced targeting systems), Bell Textron (foreign military sales helicopter programs), and smaller teaming relationships. Boeing alone accounts for more than 60 of the listed sub awards dating from mid-2024 through August 2026. The division is positioned as a critical display-unit, avionics-component, and repair-service supplier across multiple platforms rather than as a systems integrator, and its federal work is characterized by routine, recurring orders for components and sustainment rather than development or integration contracts.
