The U.S. Defense Logistics Agency (DLA), through its Construction and Equipment division, awarded a $3,698.88 firm fixed-price purchase order to Rudy & Associates for the procurement of sheet metal. The contract, issued on August 26, 2025, with a completion date of December 24, 2025, was awarded to Rudy III, Ernest (doing business as Rudy & Associates), a Service-Disabled Veteran-Owned Small Business (SDVOSB) and SBA-certified HUBZone firm based in Fort Worth, Texas. The award carries no set-aside designation despite the contractor's small business status. Performance will occur at the Fort Worth, TX location.

Rudy & Associates is a specialized manufacturer of military-specification metal products with a long-standing history of supporting DLA procurement requirements. As a sole proprietorship registered in SAM.gov since 2002, the company produces a broad range of metallic components including structural angles, metal bars, plates, tubes, and aviation-grade aluminum parts. The contractor maintains three Indefinite Delivery Contracts (IDCs) with the DLA Land and Maritime division, each valued at $250,000 and designated for total small business participation, which enable the agency to issue streamlined delivery orders for critical metal components that maintain DLA warehouse inventory levels across Continental and Outside Continental U.S. locations. This purchase order represents continued engagement with a qualified vendor capable of meeting stringent military specifications for metal component manufacturing.
