DLA Aviation (Philadelphia) is asking for quotes on a new, commercial-item air conditioning aircraft component (title is cut off at 'AIR CONDITIONING MO'), tied to Navy 737NG and P-8A aircraft. Only government-approved sources, or their authorized distributors, can win, and parts must come with an FAA Form 8130-3 tag. Quotes are due October 19, 2026.
Watch out for
- Approved sources only. Offers from sources the government has not approved are rejected, so a small business that is not the approved manufacturer or its distributor cannot win.
offers received from sources which are not government-approved sources of supply will be deemed technically unacceptable, and therefore ineligible for award.
- FAA release certificate required. Each part needs a properly issued FAA Form 8130-3, which normally must come from an FAA-approved production approval holder.
the 8130-3 shall be issued by an FAA-approved production approval holder (PAH)
- No drawings available. You cannot see drawings for this item, so you need to already know the exact part.
Drawings are not available for this Request For Quote.
- No refurbished or repaired parts. Only newly manufactured parts are acceptable.
Refurbished, remanufactured, or repaired material will not be acceptable.
- Buy American rules. Buy American and Balance of Payments clauses apply, so foreign-made parts may need certification or may not qualify.
