Purchase Order SPE7M126V1160

The U.S. Department of Defense, through the Defense Logistics Agency's Land and Maritime division, awarded a purchase order valued at $7,461.48 to Larkos Packing and Distribution Inc., a women-owned small business headquartered in Morrisville, Pennsylvania, for the procurement of filter elements. The award, issued on October 22, 2025, with an ultimate completion date of April 6, 2026, carries firm fixed pricing and does not utilize a set-aside designation. Larkos Packing and Distribution Inc. holds SBA certifications as both an Economically Disadvantaged Women-Owned Small Business (EDWOSB) and a Women-Owned Small Business (WOSB), qualifying it for priority consideration in federal defense procurement activities.

This purchase order is associated with a larger Women-Owned Small Business Indefinite Delivery Contract valued at $250,000 that Larkos secured with the Land and Maritime division on October 7, 2025, for the procurement of filter element fluid components. Under that IDC vehicle, which extends through October 7, 2026, the Defense Logistics Agency anticipates issuing approximately 12 annual orders with a guaranteed minimum of 72 units annually. The current purchase order represents one of the anticipated task orders under this IDC framework, enabling the agency to efficiently procure critical military supplies while maintaining commitment to women-owned small business participation in the federal contracting ecosystem.
