Purchase Order SPE7M825P2389

The U.S. Department of Defense's Land and Maritime division awarded a $1,193.30 firm fixed-price purchase order to Detroit Switch Inc. for the procurement of a thermostatic switch. The contract, issued on September 16, 2025, with an ultimate completion date of March 16, 2026, was not designated as a set-aside and represents a direct procurement of specialized industrial control components. Detroit Switch Inc., a Pittsburgh-based manufacturer of switches for defense applications, was selected as the prime contractor based on its established capabilities in producing thermostatic switches and other control components for military systems.

This purchase order aligns with the Defense Logistics Agency's ongoing demand for replacement and maintenance components across military platforms, vehicles, and equipment. Detroit Switch Inc. has demonstrated itself as a reliable supplier to the Department of Defense through numerous prior contract awards, including multiple indefinite delivery contracts with the DLA Land and Maritime for thermostatic and other specialized switches. The relatively modest contract value reflects a routine procurement action typical of the agency's supply chain operations, ensuring the availability of critical components for sustained military readiness and fleet maintenance programs.
