Purchase Order SPE8E425V1653

The Defense Logistics Agency awarded a $1,962.90 firm fixed-price purchase order to Rudy & Associates for the procurement of a structural beam, with an ultimate completion date of November 10, 2025. The contract was awarded on July 14, 2025, with no set-aside designation. Rudy & Associates, operated by Ernest Rudy III and located in Fort Worth, Texas, is a Service-Disabled Veteran-Owned Small Business and SBA-certified HUBZone firm specializing in the manufacture of specialized metal products to military specifications. The place of performance is Fort Worth, Texas.

This purchase order reflects the continued engagement between the DLA and Rudy & Associates, a manufacturer with a long-standing track record of supplying critical metal components to the Department of Defense. The company's expertise in producing structural angles, beams, metal bars, sheets, plates, and other metallic components aligns with DLA's broader supply chain requirements across its Land and Maritime, Construction and Equipment, and Aviation divisions. The relatively modest contract value is typical of DLA purchase orders, which often involve individual component procurements to maintain stock levels at domestic and overseas warehouses.
