About the company
Afeco, Inc., operating as Fire ETC, a San Diego–based veteran-owned small business, supplies firefighting and personal protective equipment, maintenance services, and hazardous materials removal to the Department of the Navy and Department of Defense as a prime contractor (98% of recent awards) under Total Small Business set-asides and full-and-open vehicles. The company holds SBA Certified Veteran-Owned Small Business status through February 19, 2029, and operates as a for-profit manufacturer and servicer specializing in fire and safety equipment with over two decades of federal contracting relationships. Afeco maintains a parent structure with a named subsidiary, Tinosa, Inc., also certified as veteran-owned.
The vendor's customer base concentrates on Navy components across 22 distinct federal agencies. The top five customers by award count account for 80% of awards: US Pacific Fleet Forces (74 awards, $485 thousand combined potential value), US Marine Corps (19 awards, $439 thousand), Navy Installations Command (18 awards, $717 thousand), Naval Sea Systems Command (14 awards, $60 thousand), and Military Sealift Command (12 awards, $76 thousand). By potential value, the GSA Federal Acquisition Service anchors the portfolio with a single $1.5 million Multiple Award Schedule contract awarded July 24, 2025, through July 23, 2030, which Afeco uses to offer four Special Item Numbers covering Fire Management Equipment, Lodging and Hospitality Supplies and Services, Protective Apparel, and Order-Level Materials. The MAS contract complements the vendor's core Navy purchase-order activity.
Afeco's award portfolio spans 172 total awards since 2002 with $4.2 million combined potential value and $2.4 million obligated (58% realization). Recent activity remains modest—three awards per year in 2024, 2025, and 2026 year-to-date—but the vendor carries one major contract reaching completion within the next twenty-four months: a $523.7 thousand time-and-materials contract with Navy Installations Command for preventive and corrective maintenance of personal protective equipment and structural firefighting gear, extending through October 31, 2026. Representative prime work includes a $30.4 thousand purchase order from Naval Sea Systems Command for firefighter ensemble outfitting on the ESB 8 MSC vessel (July 2025), a $17.5 thousand delivery from US Pacific Fleet Forces for aluminized proximity jackets (September 2024), and a $4.8 thousand order from Naval Air Warfare Center for hazardous materials removal and disposal (August 2023). Work is performed domestically, with San Diego, California serving as the primary location, though orders specify performance at scattered naval installations including Portsmouth, Virginia; Ridgecrest, California; and Bath, Maine. Top product and service categories are Fire Fighting Equipment (79 awards) and Clothing, Special Purpose (26 awards), with subsidiary categories in Safety and Rescue Equipment and Miscellaneous Ship and Marine Equipment. Afeco holds minimal subcontract exposure; three sub-awards on record involve work under National Steel and Shipbuilding Company for non-specification material and hydroblast cleaning on fleet repair availabilities.
