Purchase Order SPE8E426V0245

The Defense Logistics Agency awarded a Purchase Order valued at $15,735.00 to Rudy & Associates, a Fort Worth, Texas-based Service-Disabled Veteran-Owned Small Business (SDVOSB) and SBA-certified HUBZone firm, for the manufacture of metal plates meeting military specifications. This Total Small Business set-aside contract, awarded on November 10, 2025, has an ultimate completion date of December 15, 2025, and will be performed at the contractor's facility in Kenaledale, Texas. Rudy & Associates, operating as a sole proprietorship since 2002, specializes in manufacturing military-specification metallic components and has established itself as a consistent supplier to the DLA across multiple divisions including Land and Maritime, Construction and Equipment, and Aviation.

This purchase order represents a continuation of the DLA's strategic engagement with Rudy & Associates, which currently maintains three active Indefinite Delivery Contracts with the DLA's Land and Maritime division, each valued at $250,000. The company's product portfolio includes metal bars, sheets, plates, tubes, structural angles, and aviation-grade aluminum parts that support military supply chain operations at distribution centers globally. Approximately 40 percent of the company's recent federal awards have been designated as total small business or service-disabled veteran-owned small business set-asides, demonstrating the DLA's commitment to leveraging qualified small business contractors for defense procurement requirements.
