Purchase Order SPE7MC25P2406

The U.S. Department of Defense, through the Defense Logistics Agency (DLA) Land and Maritime division, awarded a $6,750 firm fixed-price purchase order to Ballco Manufacturing Inc., a veteran-owned small business based in Aurora, Illinois, on July 22, 2025. The contract, designated as a total small business set-aside, calls for the delivery of a parts kit for ball valves with an ultimate completion date of January 20, 2026. Ballco Manufacturing specializes in the design and manufacturing of precision-engineered industrial ball valve components and fluid power parts for military applications, including shipboard systems and land-based equipment.

This purchase order represents part of Ballco Manufacturing's ongoing relationship with the DLA, which has consistently procured critical valve components to support maintenance and readiness programs across various military platforms. The company holds multiple Indefinite Delivery Contracts (IDCs) with the DLA's Land and Maritime, Troop Support, and Hardware divisions, each with potential values of $250,000, which serve as contract vehicles for placing individual delivery orders as needed. The firm fixed-price structure and relatively short performance window reflect standard military procurement practices for specialized parts that support the defense industrial base and military logistics supply chain requirements.
