Purchase Order SPE8E424PQ255

The Defense Logistics Agency awarded a firm fixed-price purchase order valued at $1,396.50 to Rudy & Associates, a Fort Worth, Texas-based Service-Disabled Veteran-Owned Small Business and SBA-certified HUBZone firm, for a structural beam (National Stock Number 8510463106). The contract, awarded on February 23, 2024, with an ultimate completion date of November 19, 2024, represents a single purchase order rather than a larger contract vehicle. No set-aside designation was applied to this particular award, though Rudy & Associates qualifies as both an SDVOSB and small business concern and regularly receives set-aside contracts from the DLA.

Rudy & Associates, operating as a sole proprietorship since 2002, specializes in manufacturing military-specification metal products and components for the Department of Defense. The company has maintained an extensive portfolio of federal contract awards from the DLA, primarily supplying specialized metallic components including structural angles, metal bars, sheets, plates, and tubes that meet stringent defense procurement standards. Performance of this purchase order is scheduled to occur at the contractor's Fort Worth facility, consistent with the company's existing federal contracting operations and its three active Indefinite Delivery Contracts with the DLA Land and Maritime division valued at $250,000 each.
