Quick Summary
The Department of Defense, Defense Logistics Agency (DLA) Aviation at Philadelphia, PA, has issued a solicitation for Aircraft Power Units (Product Service Code 2835: Gas Turbines And Jet Engines, Non Aircraft; And Components). This requirement is specifically for non-CLSSA Foreign Military Sales (FMS) spares, meaning the assets are wholly owned by FMS customer countries and will not enter the U.S. DoD supply chain. Consequently, the Item Unique Identification (IUID) requirements (DFARS 252.211-7003) are waived. The synopsis for this solicitation was waived due to urgency (FAR 5.202(a)(2)).
Scope of Work
The solicitation is for POWER UNIT, AIRCRAFT, which falls under the category of Gas Turbines And Jet Engines, Non Aircraft; And Components. It includes provisions for Critical Safety Items (CSI) and requires a higher-level contract quality requirement, specifically AS/EN/JISQ 9100 or equivalent.

Additional Notes
This procurement is under EAF authority, with the synopsis waived due to urgency.
