    Description

    The Defense Logistics Agency (DLA) issues a solicitation for a two-year contract extension, effective from April 2025, to fulfill the H-1 aircraft stock requirements of Bell Textron. The primary goal is to secure helicopter spare parts, categorized into 'make parts' produced by Bell and 'buy parts' sourced externally. The agency seeks a prompt response with a detailed proposal from Bell, the current awardee, and emphasizes the importance of swift turnaround times.

    The scope of work involves supplying a vast array of aircraft components, ranging from simple hooks and studs to complex assemblies. These parts are vital for maintaining the fleet's functionality and safety. Vendors must ensure the authenticity and compatibility of the provided parts, and possibly engage in the assembly and installation of certain subsystems. With a focus on certified cost data, Bell is required to submit an updated subcontracting plan and pricing history for the commercial parts.

    Eligible applicants must be approved government sources, with the option to submit a Source Approval Request (SAR) through the specified DoDSafe link. The request should include the CAGE code, NSN, and email address for further communication.

    The procurement process involves a combination of firm-fixed-price and time-and-materials contracts. The evaluation of proposals considers factors like price, technical merit, past performance, and compliance with specifications. The agency emphasizes the continuous nature of the procurement process, with constant replenishment needs.

    For further information, interested parties can contact Richard Ferraiolo or Jillian Goetz via email.

    The contracting office is located at DLA Aviation, Philadelphia, PA.
