Contract Extension

The current Woodward sole source contract, SPM4AX09D9409, is being extended for an additional six months, with the new expiration date set for February 1, 2015. This fixed price, indefinite quantity contract supplies consumables and Depot Level Repairable (DLR) spare parts crucial to the Defense Logistics Agency (DLA) and the Army, Navy, and Air Force aviation supply chains. These parts support multiple weapons system platforms, providing stock coverage both overseas and within the United States. Orders are placed on a freight-on-board basis directly by the government for DLA support, and all listed items are designated as sole source to Woodward. While Woodward holds sole source status for the items identified, other firms capable of producing these parts are encouraged to come forward. Any alternative source must submit appropriate data and secure approval from the relevant government engineering support activity before being considered. The government retains the right to add or remove items from the contract if they become competitively available, following established directives. Foreign firms interested in information must route requests through their respective embassies. The place of performance is in Santa Clarita, California, and inquiries can be directed to the government point of contact, Julie Lesueur.
