Alpha Fasteners Corp

Alpha Fasteners Corp, a woman-owned small business manufacturer based in Freeport, New York, supplies precision industrial fasteners, bushings, sleeves, pins, screws, gears, and related mechanical components to the Defense Logistics Agency as a prime contractor on small-business-set-aside and full-and-open delivery orders and indefinite delivery contracts. The company operates exclusively as a prime (100% of awards) with no subcontract footprint, competing predominantly under total small business set-asides on its core IDC vehicles while accepting full-and-open delivery orders against those established contracts.

Alpha Fasteners' customer concentration is heavily weighted to DLA divisions. The Defense Logistics Agency Aviation dominates the portfolio at 777 awards and $7.1 million in combined potential value, followed by DLA Land and Maritime (430 awards, $2.5 million) and DLA Troop Support Hardware (625 awards, $1.5 million). These three DLA divisions account for 97% of the recent awards listed in the source and roughly 65% of combined potential value. The vendor also serves the Naval Supply Systems Command, though at much lower volume. Recent representative work includes a $4,130 firm fixed-price purchase order from DLA Aviation for bushings and sleeves (April 2026), a $1,926.34 delivery order for shoulder screws under total small business set-aside (November 2025), a $200,000 purchase order from Naval Supply Systems Command for slotted plugs under total small business set-aside (July 2023), and a $1,006.25 delivery order from DLA Aviation for welding studs under total small business set-aside (December 2025).

Alpha Fasteners holds three single-award indefinite delivery contracts with DLA Aviation, each valued at $250,000 and designated for total small business set-asides: one for bushing sleeves (expired September 2023), one for shoulder screws (September 2022 through September 2027), and one for welding studs (July 2022 through July 2027). Against these IDCs, the vendor receives frequent delivery orders for NSN-specific hardware, typically in the sub-$5,000 range per order, with firm fixed-price arrangements and performance periods of four to eight months. The broader parent-vehicle footprint shows five IDCs driving the highest task-order counts: SPE5EY18D0509 (96 task orders, $111 thousand), SPE4A615D5538 (31 task orders, $48 thousand), SPM50004D0357 (25 task orders, $105 thousand), SPE4A616D5488 (22 task orders, $53 thousand), and SPM50004D0356 (18 task orders, $78 thousand).

Activity has contracted significantly. The vendor recorded 146 awards in 2022, declined to 28 in 2023, 9 in 2024, and 11 in 2025, with only 2 awards recorded in early 2026. Of the 2,078 total prime awards in the source data, combined potential value stands at $18.3 million with $6.4 million obligated (35% of potential). The recompete cliff over the next twenty-four months carries only $8 thousand in combined potential value, reflecting the largely small-dollar, high-volume transactional nature of the vendor's DLA relationships. The award portfolio concentrates heavily in bolt, nut, screw, rivet, and washer manufacturing (497 awards), hardware manufacturing (454 awards), and ball and roller bearing manufacturing (229 awards), with PSC concentration in nails, machine keys, and pins (370 awards), bearings (262 awards), and bushings, rings, shims, and spacers (194 awards).

Alpha Fasteners registered as a federal contractor in 2001 and operates from a single Freeport, New York manufacturing facility where all performance occurs. The vendor's footprint is entirely transactional hardware supply to DLA's aviation, maritime, and land systems logistics operations, with no teaming relationships, subcontractor engagements, or work outside the defense supply chain visible in the award record.
