Jo-Kell Inc., an SBA-certified Women-Owned Small Business based in Chesapeake, Virginia, was awarded a $36,187.50 firm fixed price purchase order by the Defense Logistics Agency Land and Maritime on May 6, 2025, with an ultimate completion date of October 13, 2026. This non-set-aside contract procures five units of a Sensitive Switch (NSN 5930001514701), an electrical/electronic equipment component designated for delivery to DLA Distribution San Diego. The procurement originated from a Request for Quote issued on March 13, 2025, with a delivery requirement of approximately 288 days after the order date, reflecting the specialized nature of the switching technology needed to support Department of Defense supply chain requirements.
Jo-Kell Inc. is well-positioned to fulfill this requirement given its extensive experience providing electrical components and solutions to federal defense agencies. The company has established a robust portfolio of prime and subcontractor work across multiple defense organizations, including the Naval Supply Systems Command and Naval Sea Systems Command, and maintains multiple Indefinite Delivery Contracts with the Defense Logistics Agency covering electrical equipment ranging from switches and relays to circuit breakers and cable assemblies. The company's established track record supplying specialized electrical components to critical military infrastructure and its commitment to federal small business procurement goals align directly with the technical and operational requirements of this acquisition.
