Purchase Order SPE4A726P1337

Hartwell Corporation, a subsidiary of TransDigm Group Incorporated and established supplier of aircraft hardware to the Department of Defense, was awarded a $34,666.26 firm fixed-price purchase order on October 24, 2025, for a latch assembly cowl component. The contract, which carries no set-aside designation, reflects the company's status as a large business and is funded by the Aviation branch of the Defense Logistics Agency (DLA). The work will be performed at Hartwell's facility in Placentia, California, with an ultimate completion date of April 10, 2026. This award is consistent with Hartwell's core business of manufacturing flight-critical latching systems and mechanical assemblies used across military and commercial aviation platforms.

This purchase order aligns with Hartwell Corporation's existing portfolio of three Indefinite Delivery Contracts with DLA Aviation and DLA Land and Maritime, valued collectively at approximately $1.25 million, which enable the agency to procure aircraft components including latch assemblies, flush catches, and rim latch sets on an as-needed basis. The company has demonstrated sustained performance as a primary supplier to the Defense Logistics Agency and as a subcontractor to major defense primes including Lockheed Martin and Bell Boeing, positioning it as a critical source for specialized aircraft maintenance and repair components within the defense supply chain.
