COLUMBUS, OH -The DLA has awarded Pioneer two orders exceeding $1,000,000.00 for proximity switches. These requirements were initiated more than two years ago.

After the source was approved, Pioneer completed several rounds of negotiations with procurement activity.
Delivery is scheduled for early 2013.
