Purchase Order N0010426PFA40

The Naval Supply Systems Command awarded a $54.3K firm fixed-price purchase order to Painter Tool Incorporated, a small business precision machining manufacturer based in Irwin, Pennsylvania, on November 7, 2025, with an ultimate completion date of July 12, 2027. This contract is designated as a total small business set-aside and falls under a STEM (Science, Technology, Engineering, and Mathematics) categorization. The award represents a task order issued under Painter Tool's existing $8 million blanket purchase agreement with the Naval Supply Systems Command, which extends through January 17, 2030 and serves as the primary contracting vehicle for procuring precision-engineered industrial hardware components critical to naval fleet operations.

The originating solicitation requested metal valve and pipe fitting manufacturing services under NAICS code 332919, with specific requirements for inspection and test plans, one-year warranty provisions, Buy American Act compliance, and Wide Area Workflow payment processing capabilities. Painter Tool will manufacture components at its Irwin, Pennsylvania facility for delivery to Portsmouth Naval Shipyard and Defense Logistics Agency distribution centers. The company's extensive track record with the Naval Supply Systems Command—including over 150 prior prime contract awards totaling more than $10 million—demonstrates its established capability in delivering specialized fasteners, valve components, and machined metal parts meeting stringent military specifications and zero-defect expectations for critical shipboard systems.
