Purchase Order DOLB054R20484

Mining Controls, LLC, operating under its Gilbert/K & M Electrical Systems Division, was awarded a firm fixed-price purchase order by a U.S. government agency on August 8, 2005, with a ceiling value of $2,630.00. The contract was completed by September 15, 2005, and specified performance at the contractor's location in Beaver, West Virginia. No set-aside designation was applied to this procurement.

This purchase order represents a routine, short-duration acquisition typical of federal procurement for specific goods or services required at a fixed cost. The brief contract timeline—approximately five weeks from award to completion—and modest contract value indicate this was likely a straightforward procurement to fulfill an immediate operational need. The firm fixed-price structure provided cost certainty for the government while establishing a defined deliverable scope for the contractor.
