Blanket Purchase Agreement W911N221A0002

The Department of the Army Materiel Command Contracting Command Redstone Arsenal awarded a $750,000 single-award Blanket Purchase Agreement (BPA) to Schaedler Yesco Distribution Inc., a small business prime contractor, to supply various emergency lights, wiring, batteries, fixtures, and associated electrical equipment in support of operations at Letterkenny Army Depot. The majority of task orders under this five-year BPA are designated as total small business set-asides. Performance locations include sites in Pennsylvania, with the prime contractor delivering products and services from its Swatara, PA division. Task order values range from minimal amounts to several thousand dollars for items like lamps, conduits, switches, and photo controls needed to sustain Army infrastructure and equip forces. This comprehensive BPA streamlines the Defense Department's procurement of standardized electrical and lighting products from the small business vendor to support the Army Materiel Command's mission.

The contracted electrical and lighting equipment and supplies are critical to facilities maintenance, equipment upgrades, and general infrastructure requirements across Army installations. The Redstone Arsenal Contracting Command, which facilitates acquisitions for the Army Materiel Command, has placed numerous firm fixed price call orders against the BPA to obtain a wide range of items from the small business prime contractor, including LED fixtures, wire, batteries, photo controls, and switches, among other electrical components. The award structure, set-aside designations, and specific product details demonstrate how the Army leverages an indefinite-delivery/indefinite-quantity vehicle to efficiently procure standardized commercial materials in support of its operations and mission readiness.
