Purchase Order SPE7M826V0284

The Defense Logistics Agency (DLA) Land and Maritime awarded a $33,440 firm fixed-price purchase order to Dircksen & Associates, Inc., a small business manufacturer based in Columbus, Ohio, for the procurement of pressure switches (National Stock Number 5930012102252). The contract, designated as a Total Small Business set-aside, was awarded on December 1, 2025, with an ultimate completion date of June 19, 2026. The solicitation specified a requirement for 38 units of source-controlled electrical switching components with a 75-day delivery timeline to DLA Distribution Warner Robins. Dircksen & Associates, operating manufacturing facilities across Ohio, California, and North Carolina, is well-positioned to fulfill this requirement, having established itself as a reliable supplier of specialized industrial and electromechanical components to the Department of Defense since 2002.

This purchase order represents a typical procurement transaction within DLA Land and Maritime's direct replenishment operations for critical defense components. Dircksen & Associates currently maintains two active Indefinite Delivery Contracts with DLA Land and Maritime, including a pressure switch supply agreement with a $256,250 ceiling value established in May 2025, which provides a framework for similar component procurements. Approximately 70 percent of the contractor's federal awards have been designated as small business set-asides, reflecting its significant participation in government small business procurement initiatives. The firm operates exclusively as a prime contractor with no major subcontractor relationships, maintaining direct control over manufacturing and delivery operations.
