American Defense Components, LLC

American Defense Components, LLC, doing business as ADC, manufactures precision-engineered aerospace fasteners, spacers, washers, shims, bushings, rings, and related aviation hardware components as a prime contractor to the Defense Logistics Agency, operating as a service-disabled veteran-owned small business (SDVOSB) based in Stamps, Arkansas.

ADC is structured as a limited liability partnership and for-profit organization with veteran-owned-business and SDVOSB designations. The company competes predominantly full-and-open across its prime portfolio—7,138 awards spanning the past several years show no reliance on set-aside categories as a characteristic posture, though individual purchase orders and IDIQs carry Total Small Business set-aside markings. All manufacturing occurs at ADC's facility in Stamps, Arkansas.

Customer concentration is extreme and singular. DLA Aviation accounts for 6,110 awards (85% of the award count) and $39.6 million (93% of combined potential value). The remaining top four customers—DLA Land and Maritime, DLA Troop Support Hardware, DLA Troop Support Construction and Equipment, and the Army Materiel Command Aviation and Missile Life Cycle Management Command—collectively represent just 1,010 awards and $1.6 million. This concentration reflects ADC's narrow mission: supplying consumable and replacement components for military aircraft maintenance and repair operations through the Defense Logistics Agency supply chain.

ADC holds four active indefinite-delivery vehicles with DLA Aviation, each valued at $250,000 to $350,000 with performance periods extending through 2027 to 2031. These IDIQs authorize on-demand procurement of mission-critical spare parts without dedicated task-order vehicles managed through parent contracting mechanisms; instead, ADC operates as a direct supplier issuing individual purchase orders and delivery orders for specific components as DLA Aviation requirements arise. The top parent vehicle by task-order count is Indefinite Delivery Contract SPE4A621D0074, with 64 task orders totaling $206 thousand combined potential value.

Capability framing centers on component manufacturing and supply. Representative work includes a $170,884 Total Small Business purchase order from DLA Aviation (March 31, 2026) for 1,400 retaining rings; a $349,505.10 Total Small Business purchase order for 66,955 recessed washers with delivery to DLA Distribution Centers (March 23, 2026); a $81,788.13 purchase order for bearing washers, thrust, under Total Small Business set-aside (June 30, 2026); and a $62,326.25 purchase order for shims (March 24, 2026). Smaller orders dominate the portfolio—the median award value reflects per-item pricing for fasteners and hardware in the hundreds to low thousands of dollars. NAICS framing centers on 332722 (Bolt, Nut, Screw, Rivet, and Washer Manufacturing), with secondary concentration in 332910 (Industrial Valve Manufacturing) and broader hardware manufacturing codes. PSC coding emphasizes bushings, rings, shims, and spacers (4,919 awards), nuts and washers (1,165 awards), and airframe structural components (261 awards).

Activity has remained steady in recent years—494 awards in 2022, 551 in 2023, and 1,091 in 2025, with 343 awards year-to-date in 2026. Eighty-eight awards totaling $989 thousand in combined potential value face ultimate completion within the next twenty-four months, presenting recompete exposure primarily to the same DLA Aviation customer base. ADC operates exclusively as a prime contractor; no subcontract footprint is present in the source data. The vendor does not hold seats on GWACs, multi-agency IDIQs, or GSA Schedules; all federal work flows through direct DLA relationships and the four active DLA Aviation indefinite-delivery vehicles.
