Purchase Order SPE7M525P2509

The U.S. Department of Defense awarded a $6,438 firm fixed-price purchase order to Aircraft Tubular Components Inc., a small business manufacturer based in Melbourne, Florida, for the production of a tube assembly metal component. The contract, issued on February 16, 2025, carries an ultimate completion date of July 7, 2025, and involves no set-aside designation. The funding originates from the Defense Logistics Agency (DLA) Land and Maritime division, which procures supply and logistics support across the military services. Aircraft Tubular Components Inc. specializes in precision-manufactured metal tube assemblies and fittings for aviation and aerospace applications, serving as both a prime contractor and critical subcontractor to major defense primes including Sikorsky Aircraft Corporation, Lockheed Martin Corporation, Northrop Grumman Systems Corporation, and Boeing on programs such as the CH-53K helicopter and F-35 fighter jet.

This purchase order likely represents a delivery order or task under one of the company's two active Indefinite Delivery Contracts (IDCs) with DLA Land and Maritime, each valued at $250,000 with performance periods extending through 2025 and 2026. The IDCs, designated as total small business set-asides, enable DLA to flexibly order approximately 10-12 specific National Stock Number-identified tube assemblies annually to support military readiness across various armed forces branches. The contract classification falls under NAICS code 331210 for Iron and Steel Pipe and Tube Manufacturing, reflecting the company's core manufacturing capability in producing specialized tubular components for defense logistics applications.
