Spring Manufacturing

NAICS 332613 (Spring Manufacturing) encompasses the production of various metal springs, including helical, compression, extension, torsion, flat, and specialized spring components used across military, aerospace, and industrial applications. These springs serve critical functions in equipment maintenance, mechanical systems, and logistics support, with manufacturing focused on precision engineering and meeting stringent military specification requirements. The springs produced under this classification range from small mechanical components to specialized hardware used in complex mechanical and aerospace systems.

Federal contract awards in this NAICS category predominantly involve the Defense Logistics Agency (DLA) Aviation and Land and Maritime divisions, with contract values typically ranging from $1,000 to $15,000 per purchase order. Most awards are firm fixed-price purchase orders with delivery periods between 30-291 days. Frequently awarded entities include small businesses such as Coiling Technologies, Argo Spring Manufacturing, J.T.D. Stamping, and Maney Aircraft, with many being veteran-owned, woman-owned, or service-disabled veteran-owned small businesses. Set-asides are common, with many contracts designated for total small business participation, particularly for deliveries to organizations like Arizona Industries for the Blind and Industries of the Blind Inc.

Recent federal contract opportunities consistently involve the DLA Land and Maritime and DLA Aviation, seeking helical compression, extension, and torsion springs, as well as flat and specialized springs. Most solicitations are structured as Indefinite Delivery Contracts with one-year terms and maximum aggregate order values of $250,000. The opportunities typically require electronic quote submission, have minimal specifications provided, and involve delivery to various CONUS and OCONUS military depots. Quantities range from 1 to 3,800 units, with delivery timelines varying from 35 to 291 days after order, and most opportunities are open to all responsible sources or set aside exclusively for small businesses.
