Purchase Order SPE4A625V619F

The U.S. Department of Defense Aviation command awarded a $3,103 firm fixed-price purchase order to The L.C. Doane Company, a woman-owned small business manufacturer of specialized lighting equipment based in Ivoryton, Connecticut. The contract, issued on September 4, 2025, calls for the delivery of lighting fixtures and related electrical components, with an ultimate completion date of February 2, 2026. This procurement was not designated as a set-aside contract and represents a continuation of the ongoing commercial relationship between DLA Aviation and LC Doane Co, which has supplied Defense Logistics Agency commands with specialized lighting solutions for military applications since the company's registration in the federal contracting system in 2002.

LC Doane Co maintains multiple indefinite delivery contracts with DLA across its Aviation, Land and Maritime, and Troop Support commands, enabling the issuance of firm fixed-price delivery orders and purchase orders for lighting equipment. The company's product portfolio includes light-emitting diodes, lighting fixtures, lamp ballasts, and lampholder assemblies, with current IDV ceilings of $250,000 each extending through 2026-2029. Beyond its direct DLA relationships, LC Doane Co also provides significant subcontract support to major shipbuilders for naval vessel construction projects, supplying lighting fixtures and electrical components for vessels including the USS New York and USS Sullivans. This purchase order reflects the company's established role as a key supplier of rugged, military-grade lighting solutions for Defense Department platforms and installations.
