Purchase Order SPE7L325V7034

The U.S. Department of Defense's Defense Logistics Agency (DLA) Land and Maritime division awarded a $7,911.36 firm fixed-price purchase order to Johnson & Towers LLC, a small business specializing in defense supply chain components and spare parts. The contract, effective August 29, 2025, with a completion date of January 26, 2026, covers the procurement of plain encased seals—precision mechanical components commonly used in military equipment maintenance and vessel operations. Johnson & Towers LLC, based in Middle River, Maryland, was selected as the prime contractor with no set-aside designation applied to this award. The company's location aligns with the place of performance, enabling efficient local delivery and support for DLA operations.

This award reflects DLA's ongoing procurement strategy to maintain military readiness through reliable supplier relationships for specialized components. Johnson & Towers LLC has established itself as a critical vendor in the defense supply chain, with an extensive portfolio of contracts across multiple DLA divisions and the U.S. Coast Guard. The company's expertise in supplying marine engine components, mechanical assemblies, and precision parts to support fleet operations and equipment maintenance makes it well-suited for this procurement. The modest contract value is typical of DLA's transactional purchases for replacement parts that sustain operational capabilities across military branches and service commands.
