Purchase Order SPE4A626V1889

The U.S. Department of Defense Aviation agency awarded a $4,002 firm fixed-price purchase order to Bek, Inc. (operating as Level 1 Fasteners) on October 27, 2025, for socket head cap screws. The contract, with an ultimate completion date of March 16, 2026, carries no set-aside designation. Bek, Inc., a woman-owned small business and SBA-certified HUBZone firm headquartered in Huntington, West Virginia, will perform the work at its Huntington facility. This purchase order likely represents a task order or delivery against one of the company's larger indefinite delivery vehicles with the Navy or Defense Logistics Agency, as Bek, Inc. maintains a $20 million five-year Naval Supply Systems Command IDV contract (April 2023–April 2028) and a $250,000 Defense Logistics Agency Aviation IDV contract for industrial and aircraft fasteners.

Bek, Inc. has an established track record as a fastener supplier to multiple defense agencies, with particular strength in providing socket head cap screws, hexagon head screws, bolts, studs, and specialty fasteners to support military logistics and maintenance requirements. The company's HUBZone certification and small business status position it favorably for federal procurement while demonstrating commitment to sustainable manufacturing practices, evidenced by previous federal grant support for renewable energy improvements at its production facility.
