Auto-Valve, Inc., a veteran-owned small business manufacturer based in Dayton, Ohio, was awarded a firm fixed-price purchase order by the Defense Logistics Agency (DLA) Land and Maritime division on January 16, 2026, for the supply of check valves. This non-set-aside contract, valued at $23,088, is scheduled for ultimate completion by July 10, 2026, with performance taking place at the contractor's Dayton facility. Auto-Valve specializes in high-precision valve components and fluid control systems critical to military applications across aircraft, maritime vessels, and ground vehicles, and this award reflects the company's established role as a primary supplier of standardized valve products to the Department of Defense.

The award supports the DLA's operational mission to maintain the readiness and sustainability of military equipment fleets through efficient procurement of qualified valve components. Auto-Valve's contract history demonstrates consistent performance as both a prime contractor and subcontractor to major defense manufacturers including Lockheed Martin, Bell Textron, Boeing, and Northrop Grumman. The company maintains multiple Indefinite Delivery Contracts with DLA Aviation and DLA Land and Maritime, with ceiling values ranging from $250,000 to nearly $2 million, enabling the agencies to issue delivery orders for standardized valve products on an as-needed basis across the military's operational inventory.
