The contract was awarded on September 22, 2025, with an ultimate completion date of September 22, 2026, and represents a Total Small Business set-aside. The check valves will be delivered to the DLA Distribution facility W1A8 within 168 days after date of order, fulfilling critical fluid control component requirements for defense logistics and maritime operations. This award originated from a Request for Quote solicitation posted on August 7, 2025, which invited qualified small business contractors to submit quotes for the precision-engineered valves in accordance with military specifications and industrial valve manufacturing standards under NAICS code 332911.

The company's prior contract awards with the DLA, Naval Supply Systems Command, and Naval Sea Systems Command, combined with subcontract work from major defense contractors such as Huntington Ingalls Incorporated and Electric Boat Corporation, demonstrate its capability to perform on critical defense procurements. This purchase order award aligns with Derbyshire's core competency in manufacturing specialized valves, valve assemblies, and related maritime and aviation components, reinforcing its strategic role in supporting U.S. military logistics and equipment maintenance operations.
