DLA Award SPE4AX26F232C

Defense Logistics Agency award SPE4AX26F232C is a delivery order issued on June 22, 2026, to Derco Aerospace, Inc. under the broader contract vehicle SPE4AX26D9403. This specific order focuses on the production and execution of a Government First Article Test for part number 0001S00000052. The order requires government preproduction approval and mandates that testing be conducted at Warner Robins Air Force Base in Georgia. While the award notice lists a nominal price of one cent, it operates under the terms of the C-130 AC PBL testing framework, which is a firm fixed price agreement. The delivery order specifies that no production quantities are delivered under this specific action, as its primary purpose is to validate the first article units. Once the First Article Test is approved, subsequent production will be handled via a separate contract. The order includes strict requirements for packaging, marking, and the submission of test samples, with receiving reports managed through Wide Area Workflow. This action is rated under the Defense Priorities System and is managed by DLA Aviation to ensure the quality and safety of critical components.
