Purchase Order SPE4A625V529Q

The U.S. Department of Defense Aviation command awarded a $1,093.80 firm fixed-price purchase order to The L.C. Doane Company (doing business as LC Doane Co) on August 13, 2025, for the supply of a lampholder assembly. The contract, which carries an ultimate completion date of February 2, 2026, was not designated as a set-aside procurement. LC Doane Co, a woman-owned small business manufacturer of specialized lighting equipment based in Ivoryton, Connecticut, was selected as the prime contractor. The company has been a consistent supplier to the Defense Logistics Agency since its SAM.gov registration in 2002, providing rugged lighting solutions and electrical components for military applications across multiple command divisions.

LC Doane Co's selection for this award reflects its established track record as a key defense supplier specializing in military-grade lighting fixtures, lamps, ballasts, and related components. The company holds multiple Indefinite Delivery Contracts with the Defense Logistics Agency spanning both Aviation and Land and Maritime commands, with ceiling values of $250,000 each and performance periods extending through 2029. Beyond its direct contracts with DLA, LC Doane Co also serves as a significant subcontractor to major shipbuilders including Huntington Ingalls Incorporated, providing lighting fixtures and electrical components for naval vessel construction programs. This purchase order represents a typical component of the company's ongoing supply relationship with the Defense Logistics Agency's Aviation command.
