Air Cost Control US, LLC

Air Cost Control US, LLC, doing business as Air Cost Control USA LLC, is a stocking distributor of commercial off-the-shelf electrical and aerospace components that operates as a prime contractor and subcontractor across the Defense Logistics Agency supply chain, with 97 percent of recent awards as a prime. A limited liability company subsidiary of Heico Corp headquartered in Sunrise, Florida, Air Cost Control competes in full and open competition with no set-aside participation; the vendor holds no SBA designations and is not minority-owned or women-owned.

Air Cost Control's federal footprint is concentrated narrowly in DLA logistics supply. The top two customers account for 99 percent of awards and 100 percent of combined potential value: the Defense Logistics Agency Land and Maritime division (212 awards, $3.7 million combined potential value) and the Defense Logistics Agency Aviation division (127 awards, $1.5 million combined potential value). Secondary customers include the Department of Homeland Security US Coast Guard (37 awards, $45 thousand), the Department of the Army (11 awards), and NASA Johnson Space Center (2 awards, $38 thousand). The vendor performs nearly all work as a prime through single-award indefinite delivery contracts with DLA Land and Maritime and DLA Aviation, each valued at $250 thousand ceiling; representative awards include a $63,098.20 delivery order for insulation sleeving from DLA Aviation in October 2025, a $25,233.30 purchase order for cable hangers from DLA Aviation in November 2024, and a $21,375 purchase order for terminal junction boxes from DLA Aviation in March 2025. Deliveries span electrical connectors, insulation sleeving, cable collars, circuit breakers, backshells, terminal lugs, cable nipples, retaining straps, and nonmetallic conduits.

Activity has declined sharply in the recent period — 94 awards in 2022, 63 in 2023, 40 in 2024, then recovery to 76 in 2025 before dropping to 9 awards year-to-date in 2026. Only one award reaches ultimate completion inside the next twenty-four months with combined recompete exposure of $7 thousand. Air Cost Control maintains a minimal subcontractor footprint (3 percent of awards); recent sub-awards target advanced development on Bell Textron's Future Vertical Lift FLRAA program (six awards, most recent October 2025) and Boeing's Presidential Aircraft Recapitalization program (one award, October 2025). All subcontract work involves provision of electrical and mechanical components to airframe primes rather than development services.

Air Cost Control's capability portfolio is tightly bounded by DLA's electrical component and hardware inventory. The vendor supplies items classified under NAICS 335932 (Noncurrent-Carrying Wiring Device Manufacturing), 335931 (Current-Carrying Wiring Device Manufacturing), 334417 (Electronic Connector Manufacturing), and related codes. PSC concentration spans electrical connectors (114 awards), electrical insulators and insulating materials (85 awards), commercial hardware (37 awards), and miscellaneous electrical and electronic components (31 awards). The combined potential value across all 392 awards totals $5.3 million, with $4.8 million obligated. Place of performance is consistently Sunrise and Fort Lauderdale, Florida, with occasional order delivery to overseas DLA depots via containerization points.

Heico Corp, Air Cost Control's parent, is a diversified aerospace and defense manufacturer with established supplier relationships across the industrial base. Air Cost Control's role is specialized and transactional — it functions as a qualified distributor filling small, routine purchase orders and delivery order draws against standing IDC vehicles rather than as a development or systems-integration contractor. The vendor does not hold government-wide acquisition contracts, participate in cross-agency vehicles, or pursue major programs outside the DLA supply ecosystem.
