(CAGE: 21269) and its authorized distributors, for the procurement of spare items in support of the KC-130 Ground Power Unit. Extensive market research was conducted to identify potential suppliers of required support equipment. The findings confirmed that the Government does not own the associated technical data package, that Essex is the Original Equipment Manufacturer and that it, and its authorized… (show all)

No solicitation package is available for this procurement. This notification is not a request for competitive proposals. However, all responses received within fifteen (15) days after the date of publication of this synopsis will be considered by the Government.

No solicitation will be available for this procurement. Information provided herein is subject to change and in no way binds the Government to solicit for an award of a contract.

Value counts single-winner awards. "Shared" awards are multiple-award contracts that list every winner with the same total ceiling; that ceiling is not one company's win, so it is not added in. Revenue next to a ticker is the company's last annual revenue from its 10-K.
- $LMT reported $67.6B revenue in FY2025. The median single-winner award in these 8 past awards, $764K, is under 0.1% of that. 10-K
One award's total value against one year of revenue; many awards are paid over several years.
