Purchase Order SPE7M525V7813

The U.S. Defense Logistics Agency (DLA) Land and Maritime awarded a firm fixed-price purchase order valued at $1,984.36 to Aviation Devices and Electronic Components, L.L.C. (Avdec) on August 27, 2025, for the procurement of shielding gaskets. This contract type represents a direct purchase order rather than a larger indefinite delivery vehicle, with a completion date of September 26, 2025. The award carries no set-aside designation. Avdec, a Fort Worth, Texas-based aerospace components manufacturer, will perform the work at its facility in Benbrook, Texas. The company specializes in supplying critical aerospace consumables, including gaskets and shielding materials, to Department of Defense and federal maritime agencies.

This purchase order aligns with DLA Land and Maritime's broader procurement strategy for specialized aerospace components that support military platforms. Avdec has demonstrated sustained capability in this category through multiple existing indefinite delivery contracts with DLA valued at $250,000 each, covering various shielding gasket products and aircraft gasket materials with specific National Stock Numbers. The company's role as a reliable supplier of aerospace parts has been further validated through subcontracting relationships with major defense contractors including Boeing, L3Harris Technologies, and Sierra Nevada Company, positioning it as an established vendor within the federal aerospace supply chain.
