The U.S. Defense Logistics Agency (DLA) Aviation awarded an indefinite delivery contract (IDC) valued up to $249,999.99 to E.A. Patten Co. LLC, a subsidiary of Stanley Black & Decker, Inc., to provide metal tube assemblies required for logistics support to military aircraft and aerospace equipment through August 2027. This single-award IDC allows DLA Aviation to efficiently procure standard metal tubing through multiple firm-fixed price delivery orders. Under this contract, DLA has issued three delivery orders totaling approximately $86,000 for Patten to manufacture and deliver various metal tube assembly configurations from its facility in Manchester, Connecticut. No set-asides were used for the IDC or follow-on orders. Beyond this IDC, Patten continues to receive individual contract awards from the Department of Defense to fulfill specific requirements for specialized ducting, manifolds, and other metal components used in military platforms. Patten, a registered federal vendor since 2002, has received over $3 million in prior prime contracts from DLA, primarily supporting the agency's aviation, land, and maritime logistics programs. As a manufacturer of industrial components, Patten specializes in producing metal tube assemblies, fittings, and mounting hardware primarily for military applications. The IDC and associated delivery orders provide DLA with a reliable source to acquire these standard metal tube products required for ongoing maintenance and repair of military aircraft, vehicles, ground equipment, and weapons systems.
