Purchase Order SPE4A726V0015

The Defense Logistics Agency (DLA) Aviation awarded a $1,461.60 firm fixed-price purchase order to Malone's CNC Machining Inc., a small business manufacturer located in Grove, Oklahoma, for the procurement of aircraft ribs and stiffeners. The contract was awarded on October 1, 2025, with an ultimate completion date of March 2, 2026. This award was not set aside for small business participation, though it reflects the continuation of DLA Aviation's reliance on Malone's CNC Machining for critical aerospace structural components. The company specializes in precision computer numerical control (CNC) machining and fabrication of defense and aerospace parts, with a particular focus on supporting the U.S. Air Force's C-135 aircraft fleet maintenance and readiness.

Malone's CNC Machining Inc. has established itself as a valued supplier within the defense industrial base through multiple contracts with DLA Aviation, including several Indefinite Delivery Vehicle contracts with ceiling values ranging up to $1.99 million and performance periods extending through 2030. The company's contract portfolio demonstrates consistent capability in manufacturing complex aerospace structural elements such as wing components, panels, brackets, and access doors for military aircraft. This purchase order represents a discrete task order component of DLA Aviation's broader procurement strategy to maintain adequate inventories of critical aircraft structural parts needed for ongoing military aircraft operations and maintenance.
