This opportunity appears to have a closely related prior contract for MH-65 rivet procurement, with Boeing Distribution Services X identified as the awardee on contract 70Z03826PF0000365 for 750 EA of blind rivets. The current requirement similarly calls for procurement of rivets for use on the MH-65 aircraft, with traceability to the Safran Aerosystems OEM and FAA airworthiness/COC documentation requirements, suggesting continuity in sourcing and part qualification needs even though the specific rivet type and quantity differ.
