Auto-Valve, Inc., a veteran-owned small business manufacturer based in Dayton, Ohio, was awarded a firm fixed-price purchase order on January 18, 2024, for the procurement of ball valves. The contract, valued at $22,010, is scheduled for ultimate completion by July 28, 2025, and will be performed at the awardee's Dayton facility. The Defense Logistics Agency (DLA) Land and Maritime division, the funding federal agency, issued this non-set-aside purchase order as part of its ongoing efforts to maintain critical fluid control components for military maritime vessels and related defense platforms.
Auto-Valve has established itself as a key supplier to the DLA through multiple indefinite delivery contracts covering valve assemblies, drain valves, and pressure equalization components. The company's expertise in manufacturing high-precision valve products for aerospace and defense applications, combined with its track record of performance on DLA contracts, positions it as a qualified vendor for this specific requirement. In addition to its prime contracting activities, Auto-Valve serves as a subcontractor to major defense firms including Lockheed Martin, Boeing, and Northrop Grumman, providing specialized valve components that support operational readiness across military aviation and maritime fleets.
