Battery Manufacturing

Battery Manufacturing (NAICS 335910) encompasses the production of various battery types, including rechargeable and non-rechargeable batteries for military, industrial, and commercial applications. These batteries range from small portable units to large stationary power systems used in critical infrastructure, naval vessels, and specialized equipment. The products include lithium-ion, nickel-metal hydride, lead-acid, and other battery technologies designed for diverse operational requirements.

Recent federal contract awards in this category predominantly involve the Department of Defense, particularly the Defense Logistics Agency and the Navy, with contract values ranging from $50 to $140,000. Frequent award recipients include First Logistex (a woman-owned small business), Applied Power Services LLC, and Bren-Tronics Defense LLC. Most awards are firm-fixed-price purchase orders or delivery orders, typically set aside for small businesses, with performance locations spanning military installations, distribution centers, and naval vessels. Contract durations generally range from 60 to 350 days, focusing on battery replacements, upgrades, and infrastructure maintenance.

Federal contract opportunities within this NAICS code are predominantly solicited by the Defense Logistics Agency Land and Maritime, with requirements spanning battery assemblies, storage batteries, and electrolytic cells. Many opportunities target specific naval vessels, requiring battery deliveries to ships like USS Halsey, USS Gridley, and USS Anchorage. Solicitations frequently include total small business set-asides, with quantities ranging from 1 to 3,680 units. Performance locations include various military depots, naval vessels, and international destinations such as the Egyptian Ministry of Defense. Delivery timelines typically range from 40 to 161 days after order, with electronic quote submissions being the standard submission method.
