Purchase Order SPE8E926V0428

The Defense Logistics Agency's Construction and Equipment division awarded a $13,914.72 firm fixed-price purchase order for sheet metal to Rudy & Associates, a Fort Worth, Texas-based Service-Disabled Veteran-Owned Small Business and SBA-certified HUBZone firm, on December 3, 2025. The contract, which carries no set-aside designation, requires completion by April 27, 2026, with manufacturing and fulfillment occurring at the contractor's facility in Kendale, 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 Defense Logistics Agency through an extensive portfolio of purchase orders and delivery orders.

This purchase order represents a single transaction within the broader Defense Logistics Agency procurement strategy for specialized metal products supporting military supply chain operations. The contractor currently maintains three active Indefinite Delivery Contracts with the DLA's Land and Maritime division, each valued at $250,000 with performance periods extending through late 2026, which procure specialized metallic tubing components under various set-aside designations. The company's product portfolio encompasses military-grade metal bars, sheets, plates, tubes, structural angles, aviation-grade aluminum parts, and specialized alloys including Inconel and beryllium copper, positioning it as a qualified supplier for the Defense Department's stringent procurement standards.
