Indefinite Delivery Contract SPE7LX26D0002

Blade Industrial Products Inc., a small business manufacturer based in Wixom, Michigan, was awarded a multiple-award Indefinite Delivery Contract valued at $49.0 million by the Defense Logistics Agency (Land and Maritime) with a total small business set-aside designation. The contract, which became effective on October 15, 2025, and extends through October 14, 2035, establishes a ten-year procurement vehicle for the supply of O-rings across approximately 1,900 National Stock Numbers spanning 21 Federal Supply Classes. The underlying solicitation, posted February 11, 2025, sought to transition the agency from single-National Stock Number purchase orders to multi-National Stock Number long-term contracts with one or more qualified suppliers capable of delivering critical O-ring items used in defense applications with rapid turnaround capability. Blade Industrial Products Inc. met stringent qualification requirements including United States/Canada Joint Certification Program certification, ISO 9001 compliance, Electronic Data Interchange capabilities, and demonstrated ability to quote on at least 75 percent of required National Stock Numbers with a commitment to maintain 95 percent on-time delivery performance.

The contract structure encompasses a four-year base period with two three-year option periods, positioning the Defense Logistics Agency to consolidate O-ring procurement across multiple defense applications, including critical uses such as Ohio Class Submarine ballistic nuclear submarines and nuclear reactor programs. As the funding agency, the Defense Logistics Agency reserves the right to compete individual orders among all prime contractors awarded under this multiple-award vehicle, enabling fair and reasonable competition while maintaining centralized post-award monitoring. Blade Industrial Products Inc. brings established experience as a reliable supplier of industrial components to defense and logistics agencies, with prior Indefinite Delivery Contracts focused on nonmetallic seals, gaskets, and preformed packing materials. The contract supports both Continental United States and Overseas Continental United States Defense Logistics Agency depots, serving the broader Department of Defense and federal agency requirements for mission-critical consumable industrial parts essential to military equipment maintenance and logistics operations.
