Purchase Order HSCG3805P100596

The Defense Logistics Agency Aviation awarded a purchase order valued at $4,152.00 to Columbia Research Laboratories, Inc., a woman-owned small business manufacturer specializing in electromechanical sensors and measurement devices for aerospace and military applications. The contract, which was not set aside for small businesses, was awarded on August 25, 2005, with an ultimate completion date of December 15, 2005. The work was performed at the contractor's facility in Woodlyn, Pennsylvania. Columbia Research Laboratories is an established supplier of precision sensor technologies to the Department of Defense, with a strong track record of delivering specialized components such as motional transducers, accelerometers, and force-weight load cells through various delivery orders and purchase orders with DLA Aviation.

This purchase order represents a relatively modest procurement within the context of the contractor's broader relationship with DLA Aviation, which includes three significant Indefinite Delivery Contracts ranging from $250,000 to $1.49 million for electronic accelerometers and motional transducers. Columbia Research Laboratories has demonstrated its capability as both a prime contractor and subcontractor on defense programs, including work with prime contractors such as Lockheed Martin Corporation on specialized testing and qualification services. The company's consistent engagement with DLA Aviation underscores its importance as a reliable source for critical sensor components that support military aviation logistics and operational readiness across the Department of Defense.
