Purchase Order SPE1C125P1152

The Defense Logistics Agency Clothing and Textiles division awarded a Purchase Order valued at $57,120 to Reliable World Trade Company, Inc. on August 14, 2025, for the manufacture and delivery of 70,000 units of shoulder insignia (NSN 8455016478866). This Total Small Business set-aside contract was performed by the Oakland, California-based minority and woman-owned small business contractor, with delivery required to Arizona Industries for the Blind within 139 days of order, culminating in a completion date of February 10, 2026. The contract employs firm fixed pricing and represents the type of military uniform accessory procurement that the Defense Logistics Agency routinely executes to maintain standardized insignia and rank designations across all branches of the U.S. Armed Forces.

This award follows a Request for Quote solicitation posted on August 6, 2025, with submissions due by August 13, 2025, and reflects Reliable World Trade Company's established role as a qualified supplier within the defense uniform supply chain. The contractor has demonstrated consistent capability in manufacturing military specification-compliant shoulder insignia and related uniform components, as evidenced by its receipt of hundreds of purchase orders and a concurrent five-year Indefinite Delivery Contract (valued at $1.85 million) awarded by the same Defense Logistics Agency division in September 2025. As the prime contractor with no identified subcontractors, Reliable World Trade Company will perform all manufacturing and delivery operations independently from its Oakland facility.
