Payson Casters Incorporated supplies essential hardware components that facilitate the movement and transportation of equipment and supplies, which are crucial for military logistics and operations.

The majority of Payson Casters Incorporated's federal contracts are awarded by defense agencies, particularly the Defense Logistics Agency (DLA) divisions such as Land and Maritime, Troop Support, and Hardware. The company has received multiple purchase orders for various types of casters, including swivel casters, rigid casters, and jack wheels.

Contract values have ranged from as low as $107 to as high as $472,150, indicating the company's ability to fulfill both small-scale and larger orders.
