Purchase Order SPE8EE26V0141

The U.S. Department of Defense awarded a purchase order valued at $12,511.20 to Whitehill Mfg. Corp. for the supply of fibrous rope. The contract, issued on November 19, 2025, with an ultimate completion date of February 17, 2026, utilizes firm fixed-price pricing with no small business set-aside designation. Whitehill Mfg. Corp., a woman-owned small business manufacturer headquartered in Upper Chichester, Pennsylvania, specializes in custom synthetic rope solutions and fiber rope assemblies for military, marine, and industrial applications. The Defense Logistics Agency Troop Support Construction and Equipment division, serving as the funding agency, has leveraged Whitehill's expertise across multiple contract vehicles since 2021 to support the operational and construction requirements of U.S. military installations and naval vessels.

This purchase order is issued under Whitehill's existing Indefinite Delivery Contract with the Defense Logistics Agency valued at $7.5 million and established in August 2023. The larger IDC framework, designated as a total small business set-aside, has enabled DLA to issue multiple smaller purchase orders for rope and rigging products that support the Defense Department's logistics operations and equipment needs. Whitehill's demonstrated capacity to fulfill large-scale supply requirements, combined with its specialized manufacturing capabilities for military-grade fibrous rope products, positions the company as a critical supplier for the agency's construction and equipment mission across the federal defense establishment.
