6605 E State LLC

6605 E State LLC is a service-disabled veteran-owned small business located in Fort Wayne, Indiana, that specializes in supplying lighting products and equipment to the United States federal government, particularly the Department of Defense. Registered in the System for Award Management (SAM.gov) since July 24, 2014, the company operates as a limited liability partnership structured as a for-profit organization with veteran-owned and service-disabled veteran-owned business classifications. The vendor maintains its SAM.gov registration through March 4, 2026, and has established itself as a reliable supplier of various lamp types and related lighting components to support military maintenance and logistics operations across multiple defense installations.

Since 2022, 6605 E State LLC has received over 300 prime federal contract awards, almost exclusively from the Defense Logistics Agency (DLA) and its subordinate commands, including DLA Aviation, DLA Land and Maritime, and DLA Troop Support Construction and Equipment. The company's contract portfolio demonstrates a specialized focus on supplying incandescent, fluorescent, sodium vapor, and specialty lamps, as well as lamp ballasts, to support aerospace maintenance, facilities operations, and motor pool requirements across military installations. Contract values have ranged from small purchase orders valued under $100 to larger awards exceeding $348,000, with most awards structured as firm fixed-price purchase orders with completion timelines of 30 to 60 days. The majority of these awards have not utilized set-aside designations, though the company has received several contracts designated as Total Small Business set-asides, reflecting its eligibility and the government's commitment to supporting small business participation in federal procurement. Awards have been distributed across all three major DLA divisions, demonstrating the breadth of the company's customer base within the defense logistics supply chain. Recent contract activity shows continued procurement momentum, with awards issued as recently as October 2025 for lighting equipment supplies valued at approximately $702.

6605 E State LLC currently holds four active Indefinite Delivery Contracts (IDCs) with the Defense Logistics Agency Aviation, each valued at the $250,000 ceiling and structured to support streamlined procurement of various lamp products under specific National Stock Numbers. The most recent IDC, awarded on June 23, 2025, with an ultimate completion date of June 23, 2026, establishes a vehicle for supplying incandescent, fluorescent, and sodium vapor lamps to support DLA Aviation's inventory management and logistics requirements across military installations and aerospace maintenance functions. A prior IDC awarded June 27, 2024, with completion through June 27, 2025, was designated as a Total Small Business set-aside and similarly enabled procurement of multiple lamp types. An additional IDC awarded January 30, 2024, and effective through January 29, 2025, was also set aside for total small businesses and focused on fluorescent lamp procurement under a specific National Stock Number. An earlier IDC awarded November 15, 2023, and extending through November 14, 2028, was designated as a Total Small Business set-aside for incandescent lamp supply. Under these various IDC vehicles, DLA Aviation has issued multiple delivery orders and purchase orders to fulfill specific lighting equipment requirements, with individual task orders ranging from approximately $1,000 to nearly $5,000 in value. The indefinite delivery structure enables DLA Aviation to efficiently manage recurring lighting equipment needs across its operations while maintaining a streamlined procurement mechanism that leverages the contractor's proven capability and established supply relationships within the defense logistics community.
