Boeing Cancels KC-135 Teaming Agreement Following Amended RFP Release
June 09 2006 - 4:03PM
Business Wire
Pemco Aviation Group (NASDAQ: PAGI) announced today that The Boeing
Company has notified its Birmingham, Alabama subsidiary, Pemco
Aeroplex, Inc., that Boeing is terminating a Memorandum of
Agreement ("MOA") among Boeing, L3/IS Integrated Systems ("L3") and
Pemco which provided a teaming arrangement to compete for the FY08
KC-135 contract to perform Programmed Depot Maintenance (PDM) for
the United States Air Force. In its termination notice, Boeing
asserts that it received notice of an amendment to the request for
proposal for the KC-135 program reducing the quantities of aircraft
to such an extent that it was unfavorable to Boeing and further
participation in the program pursuant to the MOA was no longer
practical or financially viable. Pemco and Boeing are currently
teamed on the KC-135 Bridge Contract, which remains unaffected by
the termination. Ron Aramini, President and Chief Executive
Officer, stated, "We are currently evaluating several alternatives
with respect to future KC-135 work. Additionally, it is our belief
that Boeing would reinstate the MOA if the number of aircraft were
reset at the original number." Pemco Aviation Group, Inc., with
executive offices in Birmingham, Alabama, and facilities in Alabama
and California, performs maintenance and modification of aircraft
for the U.S. Government and for foreign and domestic commercial
customers. The Company also provides aircraft parts and support and
engineering services, in addition to developing and manufacturing
aircraft cargo systems, rocket vehicles and control systems, and
precision components. For more information:
