Purchase Order SP330023P0647

The U.S. Department of Defense's Distribution agency awarded a $56,909.13 firm fixed-price purchase order to Ponderosa Packaging Corp., a veteran-owned small business manufacturer of corrugated packaging solutions based in Melville, New York. The contract, posted on April 25, 2023 with a May 8 due date, calls for the delivery of 10x12x2 box shipping containers and was set aside for total small business competition. Ponderosa Packaging was selected as the prime contractor with an ultimate completion date of June 16, 2023, and the work is to be performed at the company's facility in Huntington Station, New York.

This award represents a delivery order under Ponderosa Packaging's broader contracting relationships with federal agencies. The company holds significant indefinite delivery vehicle contracts, including a $47 million single-award agreement with the General Services Administration Federal Acquisition Service under the GSA Global Supply program and a $27.6 million multiple-award contract with the Defense Logistics Agency Distribution, the same agency funding this specific purchase order. These framework agreements enable Ponderosa to supply corrugated fiberboard shipping boxes and custom packaging solutions to multiple federal agencies, with this order representing a discrete fulfillment of the government's packaging requirements within the established contract ceiling values and terms.
