COULD YOU HELP ME FIND A US GOVERNMENT DEPARTMENT OF DEFENSE WEB SITE
THAT LISTS CONTRACTS WITH SUPPLIERS - SPECIFICALLY LEKTRO-TECH INC. OF
TAMPA, FLORIDA?

Request for Question Clarification by pafalafa-ga on 27 Apr 2004 17:09 PDT
Are you looking for general information about Lekro-Tech, (business
description, contact information, etc), or are you looking for the
specific contracts that this company is a party to?

Any additional details you can provide about what sort of information
you need would help the researchers here best try to answer your
question.

Interesting.  As far as I can tell, there were none (that were over $5
million dollars, at least).  Here's how I checked:

1. Found website that lists all US DOD contracts over $5 Million.
   http://www.defenselink.mil/contracts/2004/may2004.html
   http://www.defenselink.mil/contracts/archive.html

2. Noticed all links from archive page were at defenselink.mil domain.

3. Tried domain-specific google search for popular US DOD contractor Boeing:
   ://www.google.com/advanced_search?q=boeing+site:http://www.defenselink.mil&hl=en&lr=&ie=UTF-8
  (Just enter "boeing site:http://www.defenselink.mil" in google search)

4. When it worked (found tons of Boeing contracts), I changed the
"boeing" part of the search to "lektro".  I didn't get any hits at
all.

I think this means that any contracts they had were under $5 million
and as such aren't published.

Either that, or the contract wasn't direct.  I know very little about
Lektro-tech.  Perhaps they are a subcontractor of another contractor
that gets bids to the US Dod?

www.fedopps.com holds up-to-date US government contract information
from hundreds of government bodies including the armed forces.

They also hold award information for all contracts above $25,000 in
value. From the searches I have made it would seem that ELEKTRO-TECH
of Tampa were awarded a contract with the Defence Logistics Agency in
2002 and again in 2004. Both were for "Cleaning and Lubricating
Compound". The first was worth $32,305 and the second for $74,550

They may have been awarded more contracts under a different name or
were sub-contracted. It would help if you knew the names of affiliated
companies or if you have a particular contract in mind you could
search on that and check the name of the awardee for clues.

If you want more information, you can visit the website or perhaps
email the guys that run the site and ask them nicely.

Good luck!
