Purchase Order SPE7M526V1561

The Department of Defense awarded a $1,900 firm fixed-price purchase order to Microwave Engineering Corporation (MEC), a small business manufacturer based in North Andover, Massachusetts, for an adapter waveguide component with an expected completion date of April 6, 2026. The contract was awarded by the Defense Logistics Agency (DLA) Land and Maritime on December 1, 2025, with no set-aside designation applied. MEC specializes in designing and manufacturing advanced passive components and radio frequency technologies critical to defense applications, and this purchase order likely represents a delivery order against one of the company's existing Indefinite Delivery Contracts with DLA Land and Maritime.

MEC serves as a prime contractor and strategic subcontractor to major defense firms including Boeing, Lockheed Martin, Raytheon, and Northrop Grumman, providing specialized microwave components for integration into military aircraft, vessels, weapon systems, and communications networks. The company maintains three active IDCs with DLA Land and Maritime valued at approximately $2.1 million combined, enabling the agency to efficiently procure custom-engineered RF technologies on a firm fixed-price basis. This particular adapter waveguide award reflects MEC's ongoing role in supporting critical defense infrastructure through the supply of specialized transmission and signal management components essential to military platform operations.
