The Naval Supply Systems Command (NAVSUP) awarded a $131,215 firm fixed-price purchase order to Pole / Zero LLC for the procurement of aircraft instrument filters (NSN 7R-1680-014839376-EL) on October 20, 2025. This sole-source contract, classified under FAR 6.302-1, reflects the flight-critical nature of the components and the specialized manufacturing and repair expertise required. The solicitation, posted on July 16, 2025, sought seven units of these filters for repair and modification purposes, with delivery required to Liberty Township, Ohio by October 15, 2027. The acquisition was not designated as a set-aside and proceeded through full and open competition with only previously approved sources solicited, as existing sources retain essential data rights and technical expertise not economically available to the Government.
Pole / Zero LLC, a subsidiary of Dover Corporation headquartered in West Chester Township, Ohio, is a specialized manufacturer of mission-critical electronic components and subsystems for military and aerospace applications. The company has established itself as a trusted DoD supplier, particularly for naval aviation platforms including the P-8A Poseidon and E-2D Advanced Hawkeye aircraft. This award is executed under the company's broader Basic Ordering Agreement with NAVSUP, established in May 2025 as a sole-source contract vehicle extending through May 5, 2030, for repair and spare parts procurement supporting these critical naval platforms. Pole / Zero's substantial contract portfolio with the Naval Air Systems Command and Naval Supply Systems Command demonstrates its recognized position as an essential component of Navy operational sustainment infrastructure.
