DLA Aviation at Ogden (Hill Air Force Base, Utah) wants 40 bulkhead assemblies for the ICBM (Minuteman, LGM-30) program, NSN 1420-01-390-4419 AH, built to the Lockheed Martin part number 23007735G1. It is a 100% small business set-aside. Offers are due 23 October 2026 (extended from 7 October), and the parts ship to Hill AFB, with delivery by 29 April 2027 if no first article is needed.
Watch out for
- First article testing at your cost. Unless you qualify for a waiver you must build and ship a first article for Government testing, and bear all test costs, before the other 39 units are approved.
All costs related to these tests are to be borne by the Contractor
- Engineering data and packaging files not fully available. The ICBM drawing set (zip and EDR files) needs access approval on SAM.gov, one engineering file is a scan, and the Special Packaging Instruction PDF could not be read, so you cannot fully price or plan from what is public.
- Complex, restricted military hardware. The part is a Lockheed Martin ICBM structure with many sub-tier drawings, adhesives and processes, and data release to foreign-owned firms needs approval.
RELEASE OF THIS DATA TO A FOREIGN OWNED, CONTROLLED OR INFLUENCED COMPANY IS DEPENDENT UPON THE APPROVAL OF THE FOREIGN DISCLOSURE OFFICE.
- Cybersecurity (CMMC) must be in place before award. You need a current CMMC Level 2 self-assessment and annual affirmation in SPRS, which is extra work for a small shop.
The Offeror will not be eligible for award of a contract, task order, or delivery order resulting from this solicitation
- Rated order with firm delivery dates. This is a DPAS-rated order, so late delivery is taken seriously and the contract must be given priority.
This is a rated order certified for national defense, emergency preparedness, and energy program use
- Due date was changed. The standard form still shows 7 October 2026; Amendment 0001 moved it to 23 October 2026, so make sure you work from the amended date.
The purpose of this amendment is to extend the due date as follows:
