D-J Engineering Inc., a veteran-owned small business aerospace manufacturer based in Augusta, Kansas, was awarded a $11.2K firm fixed-price purchase order by the U.S. Department of Defense Aviation office on June 26, 2025, for the supply of cellulose core material. The contract, which carries no small business set-aside designation, is scheduled for completion by November 10, 2025, and will be performed in Augusta, Kansas. D-J Engineering specializes in manufacturing complex aerospace structures and components for military aircraft platforms, including the C-135, B-52, B-1B, E-3, and A-10, and has established a strong track record of delivering critical components through both prime and subcontracts with the Defense Logistics Agency Aviation and major defense primes such as Boeing, Northrop Grumman, and Vertex Aerospace.
This purchase order for cellulose core material supports D-J Engineering's ongoing aerospace component manufacturing capabilities, which are fundamental to maintaining structural elements and composite assemblies used across military aviation platforms. The company holds multiple indefinite delivery contracts with DLA Aviation and Naval Air Systems Command, demonstrating its capability as a reliable supplier of specialized aerospace materials and manufactured components. The material procured under this contract will likely support the company's existing production requirements for aircraft skins, structural panels, and other composite-intensive aerospace structures essential to Department of Defense aircraft maintenance and operational readiness.
