Through its extensive federal contracting history, Juniper Elbow CO.

The Defense Logistics Agency's Land and Maritime division represents the company's primary contracting partner, awarding numerous firm fixed-price purchase orders and delivery orders ranging from several hundred dollars to over $94,000 for marine doors, hatches, scuttles, inertia dampers, gaskets, mechanical spindles, hinges, connecting links, and associated hardware.

A significant recent award from the U.S. Coast Guard in January 2026 valued at $21,800 procured four 21-inch steel marine scuttles for WMEC Reefer Flat vessels. The company's subcontracting relationships with Huntington Ingalls Incorporated demonstrate its critical role as a supplier of structural doors, hatches, and scuttles for major naval shipbuilding programs including DDG-class destroyers (DDG-137, DDG-139) and the LHA-9 amphibious assault ship.
