Purchase Order SPE8E426PQ124

The Defense Logistics Agency awarded a $24,475.58 firm fixed-price purchase order to Metco Engineering Corp, a small business metal fabrication supplier based in Santa Ana, California, for the procurement of metal bars under National Stock Number 9530006183310. This contract award, issued on January 20, 2026, with an ultimate completion date of April 20, 2026, originated from a Total Small Business set-aside solicitation posted by DLA Troop Support Construction and Equipment on December 10, 2025. The solicitation requested 17 units of metal bar stock to be delivered to the DLA Distribution Center within 167 days of order placement, with evaluation based on quote responsiveness, timeliness, and specification compliance. As the sole awardee under this purchase order, Metco will perform all work at its Santa Ana facility.

This award reflects DLA's continued reliance on Metco Engineering Corp as a trusted supplier of metal components critical to military operations and readiness. Metco's selection aligns with the government's small business industrial base strategy, as evidenced by the Total Small Business set-aside designation that restricts competition to qualified small business concerns. The company's extensive contract history with DLA divisions demonstrates proven capability in delivering metal products meeting military specifications and standards. This purchase order represents routine supply procurement within Metco's core business of providing aluminum, steel, stainless steel, and titanium products to support Department of Defense logistics networks and military infrastructure maintenance.
