Aschbacher & Associates Inc.

Aschbacher & Associates Inc., a small business electronic components supplier based in Beavercreek Township, Ohio, sells passive and active electrical components—resistors, capacitors, filters, coils, switches, transformers, and related parts—to the Department of Defense as an exclusive prime contractor. The company competes predominantly on a full-and-open basis, with occasional Total Small Business set-asides; it does not appear on federal vehicles, subcontracts, or grant programs.

Aschbacher operates from a single facility in Beavercreek Township and has maintained continuous federal contractor status since January 2002. The company specializes in sourcing and delivering commercial-grade and mil-spec electronic components that support defense logistics, military equipment maintenance, and operational readiness. Representative work includes a $65,410 Total Small Business set-aside for rotary switches (May 2026, DLA Land and Maritime), a $118,476 Total Small Business set-aside for fixed plastic capacitors (February 2026, DLA Land and Maritime), and a $53,336 Total Small Business set-aside for radio frequency filters (September 2025, DLA Land and Maritime). The company also holds a $350,000 single-award Indefinite Delivery Contract with DLA Land and Maritime for fixed plastic capacitors (November 2025–November 2026, non-set-aside), and previously maintained IDCs for fixed metallic capacitors valued at $250,000.

Customer concentration is extreme. The Defense Logistics Agency Land and Maritime division accounts for 4,350 of 5,081 total prime awards (85% of the portfolio) and $30.1 million of $36.9 million in combined potential value (82%). DLA Aviation places 183 awards ($1.5 million), and general DLA places 301 awards ($760 thousand). The top five customers cover 96% of awards and 89% of combined potential value. Awards span 21 distinct federal agencies, but the Department of Defense—almost entirely through DLA's Land and Maritime division—anchors the business.

Work is distributed across five named Indefinite Delivery Contracts. The largest vehicle, SPM90006D7002, carries 34 task orders totaling $322 thousand in combined potential value. Vehicles SPE7M520D61FT and SPE7M520D61FH each show 6–7 task orders in the low tens of thousands. The company does not sit on government-wide acquisition contracts or agency-wide BPAs; all work flows through DLA Land and Maritime standing contracts.

Activity has remained flat to slightly declining. The company received 288 awards in 2022, declined to 253 in 2023, rebounded to 272 in 2024, held at 269 in 2025, and has received 109 awards through mid-2026—tracking to a full-year total near or below the five-year average. In the next twenty-four months, 22 awards (combined potential value $266 thousand) reach ultimate completion and will face recompete. Obligated dollars ($45.2 million) exceed combined potential value ($36.9 million), indicating substantial prior invoice history.

The company operates exclusively as a prime contractor with no subcontractor footprint across the award record. Capacity spans commercial and military-specification passive components: the top NAICS categories are Capacitor, Resistor, Coil, Transformer, and Other Inductor Manufacturing (2,121 awards) and Other Electronic Component Manufacturing (856 awards). The top PSC lines are Resistors (1,155 awards), Filters and Networks (1,095 awards), and Capacitors (977 awards). Performance consistently occurs at the Beavercreek Township facility; most purchase orders specify firm fixed pricing and delivery windows of 60–180 days. The company has no documented SBA designations (8(a), HUBZone, SDVOSB, WOSB) and competes on a full-and-open or small-business set-aside basis typical of commercial electronics suppliers serving defense logistics.
