Purchase Order SPE7MC26P1012

Ballco Manufacturing Inc., a veteran-owned small business based in Aurora, Illinois, has been awarded a firm fixed-price purchase order by the Defense Logistics Agency (DLA) Land and Maritime division for the procurement of a ported ball valve. The contract, issued on December 16, 2025, carries a ceiling value of $5,565 and is scheduled for completion by June 15, 2026. The award was made without a set-aside designation and represents a continuation of Ballco's established role as a critical supplier of precision-engineered valve components and related fluid power parts to the Department of Defense. Work will be performed at Ballco's manufacturing facility in Aurora, Illinois.

This purchase order aligns with Ballco's core business supporting military logistics and readiness operations. The company has demonstrated substantial performance across more than 150 federal awards totaling over $3 million since 2021, primarily through six active indefinite delivery contracts with DLA across multiple divisions. Ballco's procurement activity includes specialized valve components and hardware that frequently meet mission-critical requirements and Special Emphasis Material classifications, necessitating compliance with stringent quality assurance standards including ISO-9001 certification and military specifications. The contractor operates exclusively as a prime contractor and has consistently delivered firm fixed-price orders ranging from $750 to $348,700, making this $5,565 award consistent with the company's typical contract value range for specialized valve procurement.
