The Department of Defense, through the Defense Logistics Agency (DLA) Aviation at Philadelphia, PA, is soliciting proposals for the procurement of aerial refuel components, specifically under the NAICS code 336413 for Other Aircraft Parts and Auxiliary Equipment Manufacturing. The procurement requires suppliers to provide FAA-certified parts with an FAA Authorized Release Certificate, ensuring compliance with stringent quality and safety standards, as the items are critical safety components. This opportunity emphasizes the necessity for newly manufactured spares, as refurbished or remanufactured materials will not be accepted, and all proposals must be submitted by authorized distributors of government-approved sources. Interested parties can reach out to Antonio Fiocca at 215-737-0118 or via email at antonio.fiocca@dla.mil for further details and to submit proposals.
