Indefinite Delivery Contract SPE7LX23D0019

Howco Distributing Co., a small business subsidiary of Drone USA, Inc., was awarded a single-award Indefinite Delivery Contract by the Defense Logistics Agency (DLA) Land and Maritime division on October 28, 2022, with a ceiling value of $3.19 million and a performance period extending through October 27, 2027. The contract was set aside for total small business participation and originated from a pre-solicitation posted on March 21, 2022. The primary deliverables under this IDV consist of retractable support equipment and related industrial components, with all work performed at the contractor's facility in Vancouver, Washington. The DLA Land and Maritime division manages this procurement to support Defense Department logistics and sustainment operations across the military branches' equipment maintenance and repair programs.

The contract has generated substantial delivery order activity since award, with task orders totaling approximately $1.12 million issued through December 2024 for the supply of various support and retractable assemblies, equipment, and components. The delivery orders, all priced on a firm fixed-price basis, have been awarded without set-aside designations and range in value from approximately $19,985 to $147,467 per order. These task orders reflect DLA's ongoing requirement to maintain inventory of specialized mechanical and support equipment necessary for vehicle, vessel, and aircraft sustainment operations. Howco Distributing Co.'s established performance record on these successive delivery orders demonstrates the contractor's capability to reliably supply critical logistics support items within the DLA's Land and Maritime operational requirements.
