Market Pulse

A quick analyst read on a full-and-open KC-46 common repairables RFP (Amendment 3) and several NAICS 336413 component procurements across DLA Aviation and the US Coast Guard—who should chase, what’s implied, and what to watch before you spend bid dollars.

Four active DoD buys are clustering under NAICS 335311, spanning alarms/controls, signal horns, and cable assemblies. If you’re already producing to military specs with disciplined inspection, WAWF invoicing, and export/sea-transport readiness, these are fast-turn, logistics-driven opportunities worth triaging now.

DLA Aviation (Richmond) released multiple small-quantity aviation supply buys, including several SBA set-aside RFQs that may award Automated IDCs (one-year term up to $350K aggregate). One shackle requirement is positioned as a five-year commercial IDIQ under FAR 13.5 with a reverse auction notice and CAI/traceability considerations.

DLA Aviation (Richmond) posted multiple RFQs for NSNs spanning aircraft hardware and a vehicle tool kit, all due Feb 18. Expect “approved source” constraints on several lines, limited drawings/specs in some cases, and straightforward distribution delivery requirements with ADO timelines.

A quick, bid/no-bid oriented read on several newly posted DLA Aviation RFQs with short turnaround and limited drawings, plus a Navy ship repair package in Yokosuka with strict eligibility (MSRA/ABR prime) and controlled access to specs via DoD SAFE.

A cluster of DLA Aviation RFQs under NAICS 334419 targets low-quantity cable assemblies and wiring harnesses—several with Automated IDC language (1-year term or $350K cap) and CONUS/OCONUS depot shipping. The key discriminator is whether you can meet approved-source / source-controlled drawing constraints and hit the stated delivery windows.

A cluster of DLA Aviation (Richmond) RFQs posted Feb 8, 2026 with electronic quote submission and several Automated IDC possibilities (one-year term or $350,000 order ceiling). Key decision points: approved-source/QPL/source-controlled drawing constraints, depot shipping (CONUS/OCONUS), and delivery timing expressed in days ADO.

Several Coast Guard SFLC buys are straightforward LPTA parts awards—if (and only if) you can meet strict MIL-STD packaging/marking and barcode requirements by the due date. In parallel, a made-to-order mooring line requirement has clear manufacturing specs and a requested 30-day lead time. DoD items include multiple urgent/sole-source indicators where challengers must prove capability quickly.

A cluster of DLA Aviation Richmond buys is hitting the street with electronic quote submission and, in several cases, tight response windows. If you can meet NSN-driven requirements and manage long ADO delivery schedules, there are multiple bite-sized awards to chase this week.

DLA Aviation is seeking electronic quotes for a small-quantity structural aircraft panel buy (two line items, 1 each) delivering to DLA Distribution Warner Robins at different ADO delivery points. Responses are due Feb 12, 2026.

DLA Aviation is issuing multiple small, parts-focused solicitations—from an NSN structural aircraft panel with staged delivery to hardware and cable/sonar items with limited public descriptions. If you’re an approved/traceable source with strong fulfillment and compliance discipline, there’s near-term quoting opportunity here.

A quick analyst read on several DLA Aviation solicitations—what they imply, who they fit, and how to package a quote when details are thin and attachments matter.

DLA Aviation is seeking electronic quotes for NSN 6150-01-145-3355 (wiring harness). Two delivery lines are called out, both shipping to the Government of Israel with different required delivery timelines. Here’s what’s implied, who should chase it, and how to package a clean RFQ response.

This week’s slate mixes a fast-turn Embassy Tokyo marketing RFQ (lowest price, likely no discussions), an SBA set-aside field services requirement for Emerald Ash Borer-related ash harvesting, a VA Manila sole-source notice for Instrument Manager support (only worth challenging with compelling evidence), plus several pre-solicitation / sources-sought items to shape before they harden into an RFP.

A quick capture-focused readout of eight newly posted notices—what each buyer is trying to do, what’s implied, who should bid or pass, and how to shape a compliant response without guessing at missing attachment details.

DLA Aviation Oklahoma City is moving multiple aircraft/engine component buys. The clearest, fully-described target is a KC-46 accessory gearbox spare buy with FAA certification and IUID implications—and an explicit data-rights constraint that will shape who can realistically prime.

A quick compare of recent NAICS 336412 postings: DLA Aviation is buying aircraft engine parts (some with FAA Part 21 and IUID implications and limited data rights), while NASA Armstrong signals restricted competition for GIII engine technical variance support.

DLA Aviation is seeking five accessory gearboxes for KC-46 application under RFP SPRTA1-26-R-0023, with FAA certification procedures (14 CFR Part 21) and IUID marking in scope. The notice flags that the government does not own manufacturing data/rights—so access to OEM data/rights (or an approved source path) is the gating factor.

A quick NAICS-aligned read on a small cluster of NAICS 332722 fastener buys: multiple DLA Aviation bolt RFQs (some SBA set-aside) plus two NAVSUP WSS cap screw RFQs that pull in inspection, warranty, WAWF invoicing, and potential CDRL/certification data timing.

DLA Aviation is soliciting quotes for NSN 4920-01-542-0066 (Fuel Sample Set, Air), quantity 13, as an electronically submitted RFQ with a stated delivery timeframe in days ADO. This is a straightforward supply quote if you can match the NSN/item requirements and navigate drawings/specs retrieval.
