The Defense Logistics Agency (DLA) is seeking to acquire 210 ADJUSTER ASSEMBLY units for the BLACKHAWK helicopter through a Five-year Indefinite Delivery Requirements (IDR) contract. This acquisition, set aside for 100% Small Business, requires a Production Lead Time of 1350 days with First Article Testing or 900 days without, with deliveries to TRACEY, CA. The government possesses complete technical data, and there are no restrictions on engineering or manufacturing. However, the technical data is export-controlled under the Arms Export Control Act and the Export Administration Act, meaning access is restricted to entities with a current United States/Canada Joint Certification Program (JCP) certification. Offerors and their suppliers must have this certification to access the data, as DLA will not delay award for certification processing.
