Southern Gear & Machine Inc., a veteran-owned, SBA-certified HUBZone small business manufacturer based in Miami, Florida, was awarded a $2,925 firm fixed-price purchase order by the Defense Logistics Agency (DLA) Land and Maritime on December 11, 2025. The contract calls for the delivery of antibacklash gears and is scheduled for completion by February 9, 2026. No small business set-aside was applied to this particular award. The company will perform the work at its Miami facility and will manufacture the precision-machined mechanical components that support military equipment maintenance and logistics operations across the Defense Department's land and maritime platforms.

This award represents a continuation of Southern Gear & Machine Inc.'s longstanding relationship with DLA Land and Maritime, under which the company holds a $250,000 indefinite delivery contract that guarantees a minimum of two orders annually for bevel gear components. The vendor has demonstrated consistent capability in delivering high-quality gear assemblies, shafts, sprockets, and related mechanical power transmission components to federal agencies since its registration in the System for Award Management in 2002. The company has also served as a subcontractor to major defense prime contractors including BAE Systems, Lockheed Martin, Raytheon, Hamilton Sundstrand, and General Dynamics, reinforcing its established position within the defense industrial base supply chain.
