Augusta Engine Parts, Inc., a veteran-owned small business manufacturer based in Augusta, Georgia, was awarded a $371.9K purchase order by the Defense Logistics Agency (DLA) Aviation on June 6, 2025, for the production and delivery of bearing assemblies for actuators (National Stock Number 3120001720144). The contract is designated as a Total Small Business set-aside and represents a firm fixed-price arrangement with an ultimate completion date of October 5, 2026. The procurement originated from a competitive solicitation posted in January 2025 requiring the delivery of 110 total bearing assembly units—109 units to DLA Distribution Depot Hill within 322 days of order and one additional unit within 20 days—representing precision mechanical components critical to military and aerospace applications.
This award aligns with Augusta Engine Parts' established track record as a key supplier to DLA Aviation and other defense logistics agencies, where the company has consistently delivered specialized engine components, actuators, and bearing assemblies for military ground vehicles, vessels, and aircraft. The company's extensive portfolio of indefinite delivery contracts and blanket purchase agreements with the Department of Defense, combined with its manufacturing expertise in critical spare parts, positions it well to fulfill this procurement requirement. The Total Small Business set-aside designation ensures that contracting opportunities remain reserved for qualified small business concerns within the Ball and Roller Bearing Manufacturing sector, supporting the government's small business procurement goals while maintaining supply chain capabilities for defense logistics operations.
