Purchase Order SPE4A626V1969

Inserts & Kits, Inc., a minority-owned and woman-owned small business manufacturer based in Santa Ana, California, was awarded a $1,192.50 firm fixed-price purchase order by the Defense Logistics Agency Aviation for screw thread inserts on October 27, 2025. The contract, with an ultimate completion date of March 26, 2026, represents a direct procurement of precision aerospace fasteners that support critical maintenance and repair operations for military aviation assets. The award carries no set-aside designation, reflecting the contractor's competitive standing in open federal procurement processes, though the company qualifies as a small business vendor. Performance will be executed at the contractor's Santa Ana facility.

This purchase order falls within the context of Inserts & Kits, Inc.'s broader relationship with the Defense Logistics Agency, which serves as the company's primary federal customer. The contractor currently maintains two active Indefinite Delivery Contracts with DLA Aviation, each valued at $250,000 and established in September 2025, which consolidate and streamline ongoing procurements of screw thread inserts and retaining rings across DLA depots. The current award demonstrates the sustained demand for the company's specialized aerospace fastener components that conform to Society of Automotive Engineers specifications and Naval Air engineering standards, positioning Inserts & Kits, Inc. as a strategic supplier within the federal defense supply chain.
