Purchase Order SPE4A625V677U

The Timken Corporation was awarded a $47,927.88 firm fixed-price purchase order by the Defense Logistics Agency (DLA) Aviation on September 22, 2025, for the procurement of cone and roller bearing components (National Stock Number 3110013980674). The contract, which originated from a Request for Quote solicitation posted on April 21, 2025, calls for the delivery of 1,078 units of tapered roller bearing cones and rollers to support DLA Distribution's aviation maintenance and supply chain requirements. Performance will be executed at The Timken Corporation's Honea Path, South Carolina facility, with an ultimate completion date of May 11, 2026. This procurement is not designated with a set-aside and reflects the company's established position as a critical supplier of precision bearing components to the Department of Defense.

As a large business entity and major manufacturer of engineered bearings and power transmission products, The Timken Corporation holds multiple indefinite delivery contracts with DLA Aviation for similar bearing components, demonstrating the government's long-term reliance on the company's manufacturing capabilities. The award supports military aviation operational readiness by ensuring the availability of high-precision mechanical components essential for aircraft maintenance. The firm fixed-price structure and non-competitive procurement approach underscore The Timken Corporation's qualification as an approved source for these source-controlled drawing items, enabling DLA Aviation to efficiently procure critical bearing assemblies within established contractual frameworks.
