Purchase Order SPE4A626V3000

The U.S. Department of Defense awarded a $1,681.75 firm fixed-price purchase order to Inserts & Kits, Inc. for a retaining ring (National Stock Number 5325009435374) on November 13, 2025, with an ultimate completion date of April 13, 2026. The award was issued without a set-aside designation, though the vendor qualifies as a small business and minority-owned, woman-owned enterprise. Performance will take place at the contractor's facility in Santa Ana, California. Inserts & Kits, Inc., a precision aerospace fastener and thread repair component manufacturer with active federal procurement registration since 2006, will serve as the prime contractor with no identified subcontractors.

This purchase order is issued under one of two Indefinite Delivery Contracts (IDCs) valued at $250,000 each that the vendor holds with Defense Logistics Agency Aviation, both awarded September 10, 2025, through total small business set-asides. The IDCs establish supply agreements for screw thread inserts and retaining rings that support critical maintenance and repair operations for military aviation assets. DLA Aviation utilizes these indefinite delivery vehicles to consolidate shipments to multiple domestic and overseas depots while maintaining supply chain efficiency through committed minimum purchase quantities and defined delivery timelines.
