M D & Associates Staffing, LLC

M D & Associates Staffing, LLC, a Black American-owned, minority-owned small disadvantaged business based in Hoover, Alabama, supplies military-specification fastener components—socket head cap screws, hexagon cap screws, self-locking nuts, plain hexagon nuts, lock washers, and retaining nuts—to the Naval Supply Systems Command as a prime contractor under total small business set-asides and full-and-open competition. The company operates as a sole proprietorship with ISO-9001 certification and maintains Defense Contract Management Agency quality assurance oversight for all naval supply deliveries.

All 14 federal awards in the source data flow from a single customer: the Department of the Navy's Naval Supply Systems Command, which accounts for 100% of awards and combined potential value of $894 thousand. Activity accelerated in late 2025, with eight awards issued between September and December 2025 and six additional awards in the first four months of 2026. The two largest awards by ceiling value are a $207.5 million unset-aside purchase order for self-locking cap screws (September 12, 2025) and a $553.9 million total small business set-aside for heavy hex self-locking nuts (March 19, 2026), both with performance in Hoover, Alabama and delivery to Portsmouth Naval Shipyard in Kittery, Maine. Smaller awards range from $450 to $45.1 million in ceiling value, spanning socket head cap screws, hexagon cap screws, retaining nuts, plain hexagon nuts, lock washers, and self-locking nuts under both set-aside and full-and-open contract types, all firm fixed-price purchase orders.

The source categorizes most work under Nuts and Washers PSC (10 awards) and Screws PSC (4 awards), with secondary NAICS assignments spanning Bolt, Nut, Screw, Rivet, and Washer Manufacturing (2 awards) and Other Metal Valve and Pipe Fitting Manufacturing (2 awards). M D & Associates operates from its Hoover facility with a secondary facility noted in Bluff Park, Alabama. Two awards (combined potential value $561 thousand) carry ultimate completion dates within the next twenty-four months and therefore face recompete exposure. The vendor holds no subcontract work in the source data and operates exclusively as a prime contractor with a single federal customer. All solicitation activity traces to pre-solicitation notices posted between April 2025 and January 2026, indicating an established supplier relationship with NAVSUP spanning fastener procurement for critical naval operations and maintenance.
