Purchase Order SPE7M225P2849

Defense Support Services, Inc., a minority-owned small business based in Arlington, Texas, was awarded a $27,496.50 firm fixed-price purchase order on May 19, 2025, for filter elements and fluid supplies under a total small business set-aside designation. The contract, managed by the Defense Logistics Agency Land and Maritime division, carries an ultimate completion date of July 5, 2025, and will be performed in Arlington, Texas. As a HUBZone-certified small disadvantaged business, Defense Support Services leverages its socioeconomic certifications to compete for set-aside contracts while maintaining an established supplier relationship with DLA, the primary source of the company's federal contract awards.

This purchase order represents a routine procurement action typical of DLA's ongoing efforts to maintain aviation and equipment readiness through established small business vendors. Defense Support Services maintains multiple indefinite delivery contracts with DLA with ceiling values reaching $1.3 million and performance periods extending to 2030, making this current award part of a broader contracting relationship focused on aviation consumable items, hardware, and spare parts. The set-aside designation supports the federal government's small business contracting goals while ensuring DLA has reliable access to critical maintenance and supply chain components through vetted minority-owned suppliers.
