Air / Flex Industries, Inc.

Air / Flex Industries, Inc., a self-certified small disadvantaged business manufacturer based in Pomona, California, supplies electrical and metal components—conduit assemblies, electrical adapters, elbows, ferrules, connectors, and rigid metal conduits—to the Department of Defense as a prime contractor on purchase orders and delivery orders, competing predominantly full-and-open rather than set-aside, though small business set-aside designations appear on a portion of awards.

Air / Flex Industries operates almost exclusively in the defense industrial base, with over one thousand prime federal awards totaling $13.9 million in combined potential value. The vendor's customer concentration is extreme: the Defense Logistics Agency Aviation accounts for 944 awards and $12.6 million—93 percent of all awards and 91 percent of total potential value. The remaining customer agencies—Defense Logistics Agency Land and Maritime (43 awards, $617 thousand), Army Contracting Command Redstone Arsenal (11 awards, $215 thousand), DLA (6 awards, $7 thousand), and the Air Force Sustainment Center (5 awards, $639)—are ancillary. Award activity has grown unevenly but strongly: 65 awards in 2022, 96 in 2023, 77 in 2024, and 135 in 2025. Recent activity peaked at 135 awards in 2025; 2026 shows only 17 awards as of early April, suggesting a seasonal or sampling artifact rather than trajectory decline. Six awards with ultimate completion dates in the next twenty-four months carry $31 thousand in combined potential value and face recompete.

Air / Flex Industries holds multiple indefinite delivery contracts with DLA Aviation. Five active IDVs carry ceilings of $250,000 to $350,000 each: a non-set-aside $250,000 single-award IDC (awarded September 2, 2025, through September 1, 2030) for firm fixed-price delivery orders on electrical and metal components; a $250,000 non-set-aside single-award IDV (June 19, 2025, through June 12, 2030) for box connectors and electrical hardware; a $350,000 total-small-business single-award IDC (February 13, 2026, through February 12, 2031) for conduit assemblies and related items; a $350,000 total-small-business single-award IDC (February 27, 2026, through February 27, 2027) for electrical elbows; and a $350,000 total-small-business single-award IDC (March 16, 2026, through March 15, 2031) for conduit assemblies. Additionally, Air / Flex Industries holds a $78,980 total-small-business indefinite delivery contract with Army Contracting Command Redstone Arsenal (awarded April 22, 2024, through April 21, 2029) for metal flexible conduit assemblies supporting the Phased Array Tracking Radar to Intercept on Target Launcher Program at Letterkenny Army Depot. Historical IDVs show similar structures with $250,000 ceilings. From the top five parent vehicles, most carry small order counts (11 to 15 task orders each) and modest combined values ($9 thousand to $183 thousand), reflecting the high fragmentation of Air / Flex's award portfolio into small, discrete purchase orders and delivery orders.

Air / Flex Industries competes in NAICS 335999 (All Other Miscellaneous Electrical Equipment and Component Manufacturing), which accounts for 791 of its 1,014 awards. The vendor carries no subcontractor footprint—all 1,014 awards are prime—and reports no federal grant participation. Registered with SAM since August 2001, Air / Flex has sustained a narrow, specialized business model centered on small-lot manufacturing of electrical hardware for military logistics. The firm's award history includes named work on the Patriot Missile Defense System recapitalization and reset program and ground support equipment at Letterkenny Army Depot, with historical subcontract collaborations noted with Lockheed Martin Corporation on flexible metal conduit assemblies and the U.S. Army Materiel Command. Current awards carry firm fixed-price pricing, short performance windows (often 30 to 120 days), and unit values typically between $1,000 and $35,000, typical of component supply relationships within defense logistics networks where DLA Aviation maintains multiple standing IDVs with qualified small manufacturers to ensure on-demand availability of electrical infrastructure materials across the military aviation fleet.
