Firstspear, LLC, a Fenton, Missouri-based manufacturer of tactical military gear and protective equipment, was awarded a $25,050 firm fixed-price purchase order by the U.S. Air Force's Air Combat Command on January 18, 2022. The contract, designated as a Total Small Business set-aside, calls for the delivery of one business day of 70 sets of PECI Floatation Support System TFSS-5326 equipment to Davis-Monthan Air Force Base in Arizona, with an ultimate completion date of April 18, 2022. The floatation support system represents a specialized piece of maritime survival equipment aligned with Firstspear's established expertise in mission-critical protective gear for military personnel.
This award reflects Firstspear's ongoing relationship with the Air Force and broader Department of Defense procurement ecosystem. The company has demonstrated consistent capability in supplying life preserver systems and tactical protective equipment to multiple federal agencies, including U.S. Special Operations Command, the Marine Corps, and various law enforcement entities. The small business set-aside designation on this purchase order underscores Firstspear's qualification as a small business contractor, complementing its portfolio of both open-market and set-aside federal contracts, including significant indefinite delivery vehicles with SOCOM and the General Services Administration.
