Purchase Order SPE8EN25V1032

The U.S. Defense Logistics Agency's Construction and Equipment division awarded a $5,504.52 firm fixed-price purchase order to Pelican Products, Inc. on September 23, 2025, for a photographic equipment case (National Stock Number 8511 series). The contract, with an ultimate completion date of October 7, 2025, will be performed in Torrance, California, where Pelican Products maintains its headquarters. This award was made without set-aside designation, allowing the company to compete openly in the federal marketplace. Pelican Products, Inc., a for-profit manufacturer specializing in high-performance protective cases and rugged equipment, has been registered in SAM.gov since 2002 and holds significant existing indefinite delivery contracts with the DLA totaling approximately $4.95 million.

This purchase order represents a continuation of the Defense Logistics Agency's ongoing relationship with Pelican Products for protective equipment solutions supporting military operations. The company's core competencies in manufacturing specialized protective cases for photographic, electronic communications, and medical instrument applications align with DLA's critical supply chain requirements for equipment protection across the Department of Defense. The short performance timeline reflects the immediate operational need for the photographic case, consistent with the agency's role in managing inventory and fulfilling equipment requests for military and government operations.
