Boeing Co. (BA) has secured $8.46 billion in multiple contracts from the U.S. Department of Defense, addressing both Air Force and Navy needs, despite the challenges posed by the ongoing machinists' strike and several safety concerns.
Notably, the company received a ceiling contract worth $6.90 billion for Small Diameter Bombs Increment One. This undefinitized contract action, fixed-price incentive, indefinite-delivery/indefinite-quantity agreement covers the production and delivery of Small Diameter Bombs from Lots 20-29, with a guaranteed minimum award for Lot 20. All work will be conducted in St. Louis, Missouri, with an expected completion date of December 31, 2035. Furthermore, this contract includes Foreign Military Sales (FMS) to Japan, Bulgaria, and Ukraine.
Additionally, Boeing was awarded a $1.68 billion modification (P00019) to a previous contract (FA8526-21-D-0001) for the sustainment of the C-17 Globemaster III. This effort will encompass multiple locations, such as Long Beach, California; San Antonio, Texas; Robins Air Force Base, Georgia; Charleston, South Carolina; McChord AFB, Washington; and several global sites, with completion anticipated by October 31, 2027. The modified contract also involves FMS to countries including Australia, Canada, India, Kuwait, the NATO Airlift Management Program, Qatar, the United Arab Emirates, and the United Kingdom.
Furthermore, Boeing secured a $600 million indefinite-delivery/indefinite-quantity contract for the testing and integration of Joint Direct Attack Munitions and Laser Joint Direct Attack Munitions. This work will be performed in St. Louis, Missouri, with a projected completion date of September 29, 2035, and includes FMS to Israel, Singapore, the Philippines, Indonesia, and Turkey.
Boeing's Defense, Space & Security division in Oklahoma City, Oklahoma, was also awarded a ceiling contract of $77.53 million. This cost-plus-fixed-fee, cost-plus-incentive-fee, firm-fixed-price, and cost-reimbursement contract covers the E-4B Programmed Depot Maintenance #8, with completion expected by July 27, 2025.
In addition, Boeing obtained a $95.88 million cost-plus-fixed-fee order under a previously issued basic ordering agreement with the Navy. This agreement encompasses developmental and operational test support, aircraft installation for both DT and OT, and capability validation activities. The work will take place in St. Louis, Missouri; Minneapolis, Minnesota; Bethpage, New York; and Linthicum, Maryland, and is scheduled to be completed by April 2028.
