Purchase Order SPE8E426V0110

The Defense Logistics Agency awarded a firm fixed-price purchase order valued at $4,615.80 to Rudy & Associates, a Fort Worth, Texas-based Service-Disabled Veteran-Owned Small Business and SBA-certified HUBZone firm specializing in military-specification metal products. The contract, issued October 24, 2025, with an ultimate completion date of December 29, 2025, procures metal bars for delivery to Fort Worth, Texas. No set-aside designation was applied to this specific purchase order, though Rudy & Associates qualifies as an SDVOSB and maintains active small business registrations. The company, operated as a sole proprietorship by Ernest Rudy III and registered as a federal contractor since 2002, has established a consistent supplier relationship with the Defense Logistics Agency across multiple divisions including Land and Maritime, Construction and Equipment, and Aviation.

This purchase order represents one component of Rudy & Associates' broader engagement with the Defense Logistics Agency, which includes three active Indefinite Delivery Contracts valued at $250,000 each for specialized metallic tubing components. The company manufactures a range of defense-grade metallic products including metal bars, sheets, plates, tubes, and aviation-grade aluminum components that meet stringent military procurement standards. All manufacturing and fulfillment operations occur at the company's Fort Worth facility, supporting the Defense Logistics Agency's supply chain operations at distribution centers throughout Continental and Overseas Continental United States locations.
