Purchase Order HSCG2809P722038

The U.S. government awarded a purchase order valued at $2,209.82 to Port Consolidated, Inc. on August 6, 2009, with an ultimate completion date of September 5, 2009. The contract, which was not set aside for small businesses, was performed in Fort Pierce, Florida. Port Consolidated, Inc., a self-certified small disadvantaged business and subchapter S corporation, is a Florida-based fuel and lubricant supplier with over 50 years of experience serving markets throughout Florida, the Caribbean, and Latin America. The company distributes millions of gallons of motor fuels, lubricants, and additives monthly and maintains a track record of federal contracting with agencies including the U.S. Coast Guard and Fish and Wildlife Service.

While the specific commodities procured under this purchase order are not detailed in the award documentation, Port Consolidated's prior federal contracts indicate the company typically supplies petroleum products such as hydraulic oil, engine oil, and emergency fuel for government operations and vehicle maintenance. The modest contract value of approximately $2.2 thousand is consistent with smaller emergency or routine fuel delivery orders the vendor has previously fulfilled. The company has also operated as a subcontractor on federal infrastructure projects with major prime contractors such as Weeks Marine, Inc. and Manson Construction Co.
