The Naval Supply Systems Command (NAVSUP) awarded a $24.5K firm fixed-price purchase order to B&G Manufacturing Co Inc., a small business fastener manufacturer based in Hatfield, Pennsylvania, for the production of hexagon head cap screws meeting MIL-DTL-1222 specifications. The contract, awarded December 16, 2025, with an ultimate completion date of December 16, 2026, fulfills a critical naval procurement requirement for 3/4 inch screws with 1 1/2 inch length and Grade 400 material. This procurement carries a "DX" priority rating under the Defense Priorities and Allocations System, reflecting its importance to national defense and naval shipboard systems. The solicitation, posted in July 2025, was open to all qualified contractors with no set-aside designation, and required stringent quality controls including ISO 9001 compliance, complete material traceability, liquid penetrant inspection testing, and wedge tensile testing.

B&G Manufacturing has established itself as a trusted supplier to NAVSUP and the Defense Logistics Agency (DLA) through its expertise in producing mission-critical fasteners and precision metal parts for defense and maritime applications. The contractor must deliver materials to Portsmouth Naval Shipyard with government source inspection conducted by Defense Contract Management Agency representatives at B&G Manufacturing's facility. All items are subject to one-year warranties from the date of delivery, and the contractor is required to provide one additional fastener per heat/lot for material traceability purposes, with comprehensive certification documentation including chemical and mechanical test reports due for government review and acceptance prior to shipment.
