Purchase Order SPE7L725V1407

Atlas Instrument Co Inc., a small business manufacturer of precision optical and navigational equipment based in Champersburg, Pennsylvania, was awarded a $6,000 firm fixed-price purchase order by the Defense Logistics Agency's Land and Maritime division on September 18, 2025. This total small business set-aside contract, designated as a purchase order under contract number 8511652993, is scheduled for completion by December 17, 2025. Atlas Instrument specializes in producing mission-critical optical components and navigational instruments, including prism assemblies, telescopic lenses, eyepiece assemblies, and bearing circles, which support the U.S. Department of Defense's equipment readiness requirements across multiple military branches.

The award represents a continuation of Atlas Instrument's established relationship with the Defense Logistics Agency, as the company maintains four active Indefinite Delivery Vehicle contracts with potential values up to $250,000 each across DLA Aviation, DLA Land and Maritime, and the Department of the Navy. These IDV agreements, which include two small business set-asides, enable government agencies to procure essential optical and navigational supplies on an as-needed basis. This specific purchase order likely represents a task order placed against one of these existing vehicle contracts, allowing the government to efficiently obtain specialized optical equipment to support Department of Defense operational requirements.
