Vacco Industries, a subsidiary of Esco Technologies Inc., was awarded a $1.73M firm fixed-price definitive contract by Naval Supply Systems Command (NAVSUP) on September 24, 2021, for the manufacture and delivery of valve assemblies identified as NSN 7H-4820-015456975-L1. The contract has an ultimate completion date of August 15, 2025, with performance to be conducted at the contractor's facility in South El Monte, California. This procurement was conducted as a sole source award under FAR 6.302-1 authority, with no small business set-aside designation. Vacco Industries specializes in precision fluid control components and valve assemblies for defense and aerospace applications, making the company well-positioned to deliver the specialized hardware required for military systems and infrastructure.

The originating pre-solicitation notice, posted in June 2021, sought proposals for six valve assemblies with delivery FOB origin, with evaluation criteria based on offeror and product qualification requirements per FAR 52.209-1. As the incumbent supplier, Vacco Industries demonstrated the capability to meet NAVSUP's requirements for these mission-critical components. Through its parent company Esco Technologies, which maintains significant capabilities across multiple subsidiaries in advanced manufacturing and fluid control systems, Vacco has established itself as a trusted supplier to various defense agencies. No subcontract information is provided in the award documentation, though Vacco maintains established relationships with major defense contractors including Electric Boat Corporation, Boeing, and Huntington Ingalls Inc. for related defense programs.
