Purchase Order SPE7M226P1129

Carbide Tools For Industry, Inc., a Santa Ana, California-based small disadvantaged and veteran-owned manufacturer, was awarded a firm fixed-price purchase order valued at $10,845.40 by the Defense Logistics Agency (DLA) Land and Maritime division on December 30, 2025. The contract, which carries no set-aside designation, is for the procurement of rotary files—precision industrial cutting tools that support military equipment maintenance and repair operations across domestic and overseas installations. The award is structured as a standard purchase order with an ultimate completion date of March 2, 2026, reflecting the typical one- to three-month performance timeframes characteristic of DLA supply chain replenishment activities.

This contract award represents a continuation of the established relationship between Carbide Tools For Industry and the DLA, as the company has received well over 100 prime federal contract awards for industrial cutting tools and abrasives. The company maintains three Indefinite Delivery Contracts (IDCs) valued at $250,000 each with the DLA Land and Maritime division, which serve as strategic procurement vehicles for recurring orders of rotary files to support military supply chain operations. The current purchase order exemplifies the DLA's reliance on this vendor as a cornerstone supplier for maintaining critical machining consumables essential to equipment readiness across the defense logistics network.
