Purchase Order SPE7M425V5393

Coast Marine & Industrial Supply Inc., a veteran-owned small business manufacturer of maritime safety products based in San Francisco, California, was awarded a firm fixed price purchase order valued at $20,608 on August 28, 2025, for Jacob's ladders. The contract, which carries an ultimate completion date of September 11, 2025, was funded by the Defense Logistics Agency (DLA) Land and Maritime, a component of the Department of Defense responsible for providing logistics support to U.S. armed forces worldwide. No small business set-aside was used for this procurement. The award represents a continuation of the ongoing relationship between Coast Marine & Industrial Supply Inc. and the DLA, which has consistently procured specialized maritime safety equipment from the vendor through both purchase orders and indefinite delivery contracts.

This purchase order falls within the context of the vendor's broader engagement with the DLA Land and Maritime, which maintains multiple indefinite delivery contracts with Coast Marine & Industrial Supply Inc. valued at approximately $250,000 each. The company specializes in manufacturing various types of maritime ladders, including Jacob's ladders, pilot ladders, and debarkation ladders, along with related maritime hardware such as ship rat guards. These products support the global logistics requirements of the U.S. military by ensuring the availability of critical maritime safety equipment at DLA depots domestically and overseas. The firm fixed price structure and compressed delivery timeline reflect the standard procurement approach for commercial off-the-shelf maritime items required to maintain readiness across the armed forces' maritime operations.
