Torque Converters And Speed Changers

The Product Service Code (PSC) 3010-P covers Torque Converters and Speed Changers, which are mechanical power transmission equipment designed to modify rotational speed and torque between different mechanical systems. These components are critical in various industrial, maritime, and military applications, enabling precise speed and power transformations in complex machinery. The equipment includes gearboxes, couplings, drive units, and related mechanical assemblies that facilitate the transfer and modification of mechanical energy across different systems.

The federal contract awards under this PSC category primarily involve the Department of Defense, particularly the Defense Logistics Agency (DLA) and Naval Supply Systems Command, procuring specialized mechanical transmission components. Awards range from small purchases under $10,000 to larger contracts approaching $250,000, with most being firm-fixed-price purchase orders or delivery orders. Frequent awardees include small businesses such as ECI Defense Group, S I T Corporation, and Kampi Components Co Inc., with many contracts supporting military vehicles, vessels, and aircraft maintenance. The majority of awards are not set aside, though some are designated for small businesses, woman-owned businesses, or veteran-owned businesses. Performance locations are typically contractor facilities across the United States.

Recent federal contract opportunities under this PSC code demonstrate a consistent demand for mechanical power transmission equipment across various federal agencies. The U.S. Coast Guard, Department of the Navy, and Army Corps of Engineers have posted solicitations seeking gearboxes, couplings, drive units, and related mechanical components. These opportunities generally request specialized, often proprietary parts with precise technical specifications, and are typically evaluated on a lowest-price, technically acceptable basis. Most solicitations are unrestricted or set aside for small businesses, with performance locations spanning military bases, logistics centers, and various distribution facilities across the United States.
