Astra Products Co., Inc. Of Tampa

Astra Products Co., Inc. Of Tampa, a for-profit manufacturer of electronic components and audio frequency amplifiers headquartered in Oldsmar, Florida, operates as a prime contractor supplying defense logistics and military communications equipment to the Department of Defense without set-aside designation on the majority of awards. The company is a small business that competes full-and-open across a deep portfolio of indefinite delivery contracts held with the Defense Logistics Agency and Naval Supply Systems Command, with recent awards showing a shift from annual order volume (twelve awards in 2022 down to one in 2026 year-to-date) that masks continued task-order flow against legacy vehicles.

Astra's capability portfolio centers on audio frequency amplifiers (AM-3729/SR model dominates), power supplies, transformers, electronic components, and printed circuit assemblies manufactured to military specifications and national stock numbers for defense communications and logistics applications. Representative prime awards include a $3.6 million indefinite delivery contract from DLA Land and Maritime for AM-3729/SR audio amplifiers running through May 2027, from which Astra has drawn multiple delivery orders valued at $235,855.62 (December 2025), $123,721.92 (May 2025), $133,464.80 (November 2024), and $110,585.12 (May 2024); a $350,000 single-award IDC from DLA Land and Maritime for printed circuit assemblies awarded April 2026; and a $250,000 single-award IDC from DLA Land and Maritime for power supply units awarded December 2024. The company also holds a $802,306.94 definitive contract from Naval Supply Systems Command for 382 units of Audio Frequency Amplifier (AM2210N/WTC) with completion in May 2026.

Customer concentration reflects near-total Department of Defense exposure. The Defense Logistics Agency (parent office) accounts for $184.2 million in combined potential value across 62 awards, while DLA Land and Maritime subsidiary carries 212 awards valued at $13.4 million combined potential — the split reflects the organizational structure rather than distinct customer behavior. Naval Supply Systems Command (20 awards, $4 million combined potential value) and Department of the Army (97 awards by count) complete the active set, together representing 78% of all prime awards. Across the portfolio's $395.8 million combined potential value, only $68.3 million has been obligated (17%), indicating a substantial backlog of unfunded ceiling available across active contracts.

Astra's vehicle footprint concentrates on agency-specific IDCs held directly with DLA rather than government-wide vehicles. The top parent vehicles by task-order volume are Indefinite Delivery Contract SP090002D7009 (39 task orders, $184.2 million combined potential value, appears to be a DLA platform), Indefinite Delivery Contract SPE7LX15D0058 (52 task orders, $1.8 million combined potential value), SPE7MX21D0048 (10 task orders, $60 thousand), SP096004D7105 (9 task orders), and SPM7MX08D9002 (9 task orders, $352 thousand). The company does not appear to hold positions on major government-wide acquisition contracts (GWACs) such as SEWP, Alliant, or 8(a) STARS; its access is exclusively through direct DLA relationships and agency-specific IDCs.

Award activity has declined in annual count over the past five years (from twelve in 2022 to one in 2026 year-to-date), but this reflects a shift in how DLA issues work rather than loss of customer confidence — the company continues to receive task orders against existing IDCs. Recompete exposure in the next twenty-four months is minimal: only one award with ultimate completion within that window, carrying $236 thousand in potential value. Most of Astra's largest IDCs (the $3.6 million AM-3729/SR contract and the $350,000 printed circuit assembly contract) extend to 2027, deferring recompete risk beyond the immediate window.

Astra subcontracts to defense primes on an incidental basis. BAE Systems Technology Solutions & Services Inc. has engaged Astra on engineering labor for AM-3729/SR audio amplifier work (sub awards dated September 2025 and February 2024), and Scientific Research Corporation has subcontracted Astra for amplifier labor and shipping on FFG-class ship programs (sub awards dated October 2025 and September 2024). The sub footprint represents 1% of total awards and is not strategically material to Astra's business model — the company operates primarily as a direct supplier to DLA, not as a deep-tier defense subcontractor.

Capability concentration by product category aligns with the DLA customer base. Printed Circuit Assembly (Electronic Assembly) Manufacturing (NAICS 334418) dominates with 149 awards, followed by Capacitor/Resistor/Transformer Manufacturing (26 awards), and Bare Printed Circuit Board Manufacturing (24 awards). By PSC code, Amplifiers lead with 131 awards, Electrical and Electronic Assemblies with 102, and Converters with 89, reflecting the electrical-component manufacturing focus that the audio amplifier and power supply contract vehicles drive.
