The Boeing Company

The Boeing Company, operating as Boeing, manufactures aircraft components, spare parts, and structural assemblies for military helicopters and aircraft as a large prime contractor on full-and-open federal procurements with no set-aside designations. Boeing is a for-profit manufacturer headquartered in Arlington, Virginia, with Ridley Park, Pennsylvania serving as the primary operational hub for its defense aviation work. The company competes exclusively in unrestricted federal procurement and does not hold SBA certifications.

Boeing's federal customer base concentrates heavily on military aviation sustainment. The top five customers by award count and dollar value account for 88% of recent awards and 86% of combined potential value. The Defense Logistics Agency Aviation dominates the portfolio with 11,896 awards worth $13.5 billion combined potential value, followed by the Department of the Army's Materiel Command Aviation and Missile Life Cycle Management Command (1,158 awards, $12.55 billion), and the Program Executive Office Aviation under the Army Acquisition Support Center (239 awards, $15.37 billion). The United States Special Operations Command places 74 awards valued at $3.96 billion. Boeing's work spans aircraft frame structural components (5,078 awards), miscellaneous aircraft accessories and components (4,013 awards), and helicopter rotor blade assemblies and drive mechanisms (1,328 awards) under primary NAICS categories focused on aircraft parts manufacturing and helicopter subsystems.

Boeing's capability portfolio centers on manufacturing specialized aircraft components, spare parts, and structural assemblies for the CH-47F Chinook and AH-64 Apache helicopter platforms, along with fixed-wing aircraft support. Recent prime contract work includes a $995.3 million definitive contract awarded October 2025 for CH-47F Block II aircraft with air-to-air refueling for Germany through foreign military sales, a $626.3 million delivery order from PEO Aviation (November 2025) for unspecified scope requirements with completion through September 2032, and a $326 million delivery order (March 2026) for CH-47F Block II production renewal aircraft with ultimate completion in August 2030. Representative component orders include $33.6 million for CH-47F Block II first-unit equipped spare parts, $7.25 million for CH-47 transmission overhaul services, $3.77 million for AH-64E Apache remanufacture spares, and $23.1 million for CH-47 rotary blade maintenance and overhaul. Smaller delivery orders span aircraft window panels, structural brackets, fasteners, gaskets, tie-rod assemblies, and specialized mechanical components typical of helicopter maintenance and sustainment.

Activity has grown substantially—from 25 awards annually in 2022 to 439 in 2025—though 2026 activity reflects only partial-year data. The company faces a recompete cliff of 443 awards worth $2.49 billion combined potential value completing within the next twenty-four months. Boeing holds multiple indefinite delivery vehicles anchoring its federal work: Indefinite Delivery Contract SPM4AG07D9006 carries 4,676 task orders worth $72.7 million combined potential value, SPM40005D9415 holds 3,780 task orders worth $63.9 million, and SP040004D9431 encompasses 1,338 task orders. The company also maintains dedicated single-award IDVs including an $883.1 million CH-47 Aircraft Engineering and Logistics Support Services contract (PEO Aviation, through July 2030), a $58.6 million CH-47F Contractor Field Services Representatives contract (December 2025 award, through January 2031), and a $52.7 million CH-47 Mechanical Transmission Overhaul IDV (through September 2029).

Service Contract Inventory data shows Boeing reported $73 million in invoiced federal service-contract revenue in FY2024 across 146 FTEs, with government-paid hourly rates running a median of $230.97/hr (10th percentile $226.83/hr; 90th percentile $294.40/hr). SCI captures only service contracts above the $150,000 threshold and excludes goods, products, and classified work, so this represents a narrow slice of Boeing's federal activity. The company performs substantially all work through its own delivery teams; across SCI-reportable prime contracts, zero percent of contractor hours flow to named subcontractors, though Boeing's larger defense programs leverage major subcontractors including Collins Aerospace (avionics and systems integration), Honeywell International (electro-mechanical and navigation systems), Parker Hannifin (fluid systems), and Safran Electrical & Power (electrical systems).

Boeing operates as a subsidiary of The Boeing Company (parent, Arlington, Virginia headquarters) and is structured as a child entity within the corporate parent. Recent sub-award activity demonstrates Boeing's role as a prime contractor supporting defense system integrators such as Defense Systems And Solutions and S & K Logistics Services LLC on Army Security Assistance Enterprise foreign military sales repair and support work for CH-47 and UH-60 aircraft components, including controllable swashplates, mechanical transmissions, and actuator assemblies. The company's federal footprint is concentrated on Department of Defense aviation logistics, with no meaningful civilian agency exposure and minimal non-defense federal work captured in the source.
