Purchase Order SPE7M226V0731

The U.S. Department of Defense's Defense Logistics Agency (DLA) Land and Maritime awarded a purchase order to Ralphs Of Lafayette Inc., a woman-owned small business contractor based in Lafayette, Louisiana, for the procurement of cartridge fuses. The contract, awarded on November 17, 2025, carries a ceiling value of $2,240.20 and is structured as a firm fixed-price purchase order with an ultimate completion date of January 6, 2026. No set-aside designation was applied to this individual purchase order, though the contractor maintains eligibility as a small business entity. Performance will be executed at the contractor's Lafayette facility.

This award represents a continuation of Ralphs Of Lafayette Inc.'s established supply relationship with DLA Land and Maritime, through which the company provides critical electrical and electronic components supporting military equipment maintenance and logistics operations. The contractor currently operates under a $250,000 indefinite delivery contract with DLA Land and Maritime that was awarded in March 2025 for battery charger procurement. The cartridge fuse purchase order aligns with the company's core business of supplying specialized electrical parts to the Department of Defense supply chain, with delivery timelines typically ranging from one to three months from award date.
