DUCT ASSEMBLY, AIR C

The Defense Logistics Agency awarded SIKORSKY AIRCRAFT CORPORATION a firm fixed price delivery order under Basic Ordering Agreement SPE4A122G0005 for three units of the DUCT ASSEMBLY, AIR CONDITIONING-HEATING, AIRCRAFT, with a total contract value of $28,381.32. The award was issued on July 16, 2026, and delivery is due by September 9, 2027, with all performance, inspection, and acceptance occurring at the contractor’s facility in Stratford, Connecticut. The contract imposes stringent compliance obligations including adherence to DLA-specific packaging standards (RP001), MIL-STD-129 for marking and labeling, and ASTM D3951 as a baseline, with DLA requirements overriding any conflicts. Physical identification of the item is required under RQ017, though Item Unique Identification is explicitly waived per customer direction. Mandatory cybersecurity compliance includes a CMMC Level 2 self-assessment, and configuration changes must be formally managed through engineering change proposals. The contractor, classified as a small disadvantaged and women-owned small business, is responsible for delivering the items FOB origin with transportation costs reimbursable by the government, while the Defense Contract Management Agency conducts inspection and acceptance at the contractor’s site. The contract enforces a zero variance tolerance on quantity, requires removal of government markings from rejected items, and mandates use of SIKORSKY’s approved alternate sampling plan under ASQ H1331 or MIL-STD-1916, with no option quantities or price adjustments permitted. Contract administration is handled by the DLA Aviation Supply Chain and DCMA Vertical Lift Stratford, with payment processed through the Defense Finance and Accounting Service in Columbus, Ohio.
