Aranki Springs Mfg,. Inc.

Aranki Springs Mfg., Inc., a self-certified small disadvantaged business manufacturer based in Santa Fe Springs, California, manufactures and supplies helical compression, extension, and torsion springs to the Defense Logistics Agency as a prime contractor on full-and-open purchase orders and small-business-set-aside indefinite delivery contracts. The company is a for-profit corporate entity competing predominantly under non-set-aside awards despite its SDB certification, though it holds active IDCs reserved for total small business participation.

Aranki Springs' federal work is entirely concentrated with the Defense Logistics Agency across three divisions. DLA Land and Maritime dominates by potential value at $1.2 million across 75 awards, followed by DLA Troop Support Hardware at $573 thousand across 310 awards, and DLA Aviation at $22 thousand across 12 awards. The concentration is striking: 100% of recent awards flow to DLA divisions, with Land and Maritime's higher average task-order value ($16 thousand per order) versus Troop Support Hardware's smaller consumable orders (averaging $1.8 thousand) reflecting different supply-chain patterns within the single customer.

Aranki Springs manufactures NSN-coded helical springs across multiple subtypes—compression springs dominate at 292 NAICS-classified awards, with extension and torsion springs representing the remainder. Representative work includes a $250 thousand total-small-business indefinite delivery contract awarded August 29, 2025, by DLA Land and Maritime for NSN 5360009105267 helical compression springs with a one-year term through August 29, 2026; a $250 thousand IDC from July 2024 to July 2025 for similar springs; and dozens of firm-fixed-price purchase orders ranging from under $500 to approximately $7.8 thousand, such as a $7.8 thousand order from July 2023 for NSN 8510033808 and a $5.1 thousand order from March 2023 for NSN 8509788323. Performance occurs entirely at Aranki Springs' Santa Fe Springs manufacturing facility with no subcontractors involved.

Activity shows seasonal concentration in 2023 (23 awards) and 2025 (21 awards) against a 2024 dip (7 awards), reflecting DLA's consumable-parts ordering patterns rather than sustained growth. The combined potential value across 397 awards totals $1.7 million, with $499 thousand obligated to date—a 29% obligation rate typical of open-ended IDCs and small purchase orders. The top parent vehicle is an Indefinite Delivery Contract (SPE7L122D61UK) carrying 2 task orders valued at $5 thousand combined. Aranki Springs maintains four active or recently awarded IDCs with DLA, each ceiling at $250 thousand, and delivery cycles typically require 60 to 99 days from order placement to support military equipment maintenance across domestic and overseas DLA distribution centers. The vendor's footprint is a narrow, commodity-supply model: single customer, single product category, full-and-open competition with occasional small-business set-asides on IDCs.
