About this award
The Defense Logistics Agency Troop Support Construction and Equipment division awarded a $133,500 firm fixed-price purchase order to Switlik Parachute Company, Inc., a family-owned small business manufacturer based in Trenton, New Jersey, for the procurement of life preservers in yoke style (National Stock Number 4220-01-440-1573). This Total Small Business set-aside contract, awarded on December 16, 2025, with an ultimate completion date of November 2, 2026, represents a direct response to the agency's December 3, 2025 solicitation for 322 units across three line items with staggered delivery requirements. The solicitation called for 320 units with a 300-day delivery window, one unit with a 60-day delivery window, and one unit with a 200-day delivery window, with all deliveries directed to DLA Distribution San Joaquin. Switlik's selection reflects the company's established expertise in manufacturing critical aviation and marine safety equipment for federal defense applications.
Switlik Parachute Company has demonstrated substantial past performance across multiple defense agencies, maintaining a robust portfolio of indefinite delivery vehicles including an $8.4 million Blanket Purchase Agreement with the U.S. Coast Guard through December 2030, a $29.39 million Indefinite Delivery Contract with DLA Clothing and Textiles for anti-gravity garments through August 2028, and an $899,437.50 small business set-aside IDV with DLA Clothing and Textiles for flyer's anti-exposure socks through June 2030. The company's consistent track record of delivering specialized protective equipment to federal agencies, combined with its established relationships within the defense supply chain, positions it as a critical supplier for military aviation and maritime safety requirements. As a parent contractor on this award, Switlik brings decades of manufacturing experience since its 1955 founding to fulfill the government's immediate operational needs for life preserver yokes.
