Purchase Order SPE4A725PB706

The U.S. Department of Defense, through its Aviation division, awarded a $81,562.51 firm fixed-price purchase order to Millennium Aerospace and Defense (doing business as Blodgett Professional Engineering) on June 20, 2025, for a government first article test. The contract, which extends through October 28, 2027, carries no small business set-aside designation and will be performed in Cameron Park, California. Millennium Aerospace and Defense is a small business manufacturer specializing in aerospace and aviation components, including structural supports, assemblies, and other critical spare parts for military aircraft and ground systems, primarily supporting the Defense Logistics Agency's logistics and sustainment programs.

This purchase order represents a continuation of the contractor's established relationship with DLA Aviation, building upon two significant indefinite delivery contracts valued at $250,000 each that were awarded in 2023 and 2024. The first article test requirement indicates the government is evaluating the contractor's manufacturing capabilities and product quality for potential expanded procurement under these existing vehicle contracts. Millennium Aerospace and Defense has demonstrated its capacity to deliver specialized aerospace hardware through numerous prior firm fixed-price orders ranging from approximately $2,500 to $170,000, with performance periods spanning several months to multiple years, supporting critical military aviation infrastructure requirements across U.S. military services.
