Purchase Order SPE8E726P0366

Ashland Electric Products Inc., a veteran-owned small business manufacturer based in Rochester, New Hampshire, was awarded a firm fixed-price purchase order on January 14, 2026, valued at $41,615.00 for the procurement of centrifugal fans (NSN 4140013823864). The contract originated from a Defense Logistics Agency Troop Support Construction and Equipment Request for Quote solicitation posted on November 3, 2025, which called for seven centrifugal fan units to be delivered to DLA Distribution facility W1A8 within 163 days after order. This unrestricted competition procurement reflects an urgent operational need for these components, as indicated by the expedited 11-day submission deadline from posting to due date.

The contract is funded by the Department of Defense's Construction and Equipment division and aligns with Ashland Electric's established role as a critical supplier of electrical and mechanical components to defense agencies. The company's expertise in designing and manufacturing high-performance fans and related mechanical components for military applications, combined with its history of supporting Defense Logistics Agency and U.S. Army Aviation and Missile Life Cycle Management Command procurement requirements, positioned it favorably for this award. With an ultimate completion date of May 4, 2026, this purchase order represents another addition to Ashland Electric's portfolio of defense-focused contracts and demonstrates the company's continued capability to meet specialized military equipment needs.
