Purchase Order N0010422PK032

Applied Energy Technology Corp, a small business manufacturer based in Burton, Texas, was awarded a $151,372.92 firm fixed-price purchase order by Naval Sea Systems Command (NAVSEA) on June 2, 2023, with an ultimate completion date of August 8, 2023. The contract, which carries a DODIC code of MF08 and was not designated as a set-aside award, originated from a solicitation posted on November 26, 2021 (due January 27, 2022). Applied Energy Technology Corp specializes in the manufacturing of cartridge-actuated devices (CAD) and propellant-actuated devices (PAD) for military applications, including fire extinguisher cartridges for military aircraft such as the C-17, KC-135, and V-22, as well as impulse cartridges and related ordnance components.

This award reflects NAVSEA's ongoing reliance on Applied Energy Technology Corp as a critical supplier of specialized explosive and ordnance components essential to naval operations and fleet readiness. The contractor has maintained federal contractor status since December 2001 and holds multiple Indefinite Delivery Indefinite Quantity (IDIQ) contracts and Blanket Purchase Agreements with the Department of Defense, enabling streamlined procurement of its specialized defense products across multiple service branches and commands. The firm fixed-price structure and relatively near-term completion window indicate this purchase order represents immediate fulfillment of NAVSEA's requirements for critical ordnance and safety systems components.
