Purchase Order SPE4A726P0977

The U.S. Department of Defense, through the Defense Logistics Agency (DLA) Aviation, awarded a $6,025 firm fixed-price purchase order to Eltee Tool & Die LLC for aircraft skin components on October 16, 2025. The contract, which carries no set-aside designation despite the vendor's veteran-owned small business status, is scheduled for completion by July 13, 2026, and will be performed in Johnson City, New York. Eltee Tool & Die LLC is a veteran-owned small business manufacturer with over two decades of continuous federal contracting experience, specializing in precision aerospace components and structural elements for military aircraft.

This purchase order represents a continuation of DLA Aviation's established procurement relationship with Eltee Tool & Die LLC, which currently maintains seven active Indefinite Delivery Contracts with the agency covering diverse aviation components. The contractor's demonstrated expertise in producing aircraft skins, access doors, fairings, and airframe support structures—combined with its proven ability to meet defense manufacturing standards and past subcontract work with major defense primes such as Boeing—positions it as a reliable supplier for critical replacement parts supporting military aviation readiness across the Defense Department's operational fleet.
