About the company
Astronautics Corporation Of America, a Wisconsin-based for-profit manufacturer headquartered in Oak Creek, competes as a full-and-open prime contractor in avionics equipment, aircraft component repair, and navigation systems for the Department of Defense without SBA certifications. The company holds a parent company structure with subsidiaries Kearfott Corporation and Kearfott Corp, which extend the corporate capability portfolio into navigation instruments, inertial measurement units, and GPS systems for military platforms including the UH-60 Black Hawk, HH-60G, F-15, C-130 Hercules, and B-2 Spirit bomber.
Astronautics operates overwhelmingly as a prime (99% of awards), competing on full-and-open vehicles without set-asides. The customer concentration is heavily weighted to Army and Air Force sustainment. The Department of the Army places 1,700 awards (46% of all awards) valued at $28.4 million combined potential value; the Department of the Air Force Materiel Command Air Force Sustainment Center places 64 awards worth $24.8 million; and the Defense Logistics Agency Land and Maritime places 243 awards worth $35.7 million. Defense Logistics Agency Aviation contributes 347 awards valued at $7.9 million. The Navy and Office of Naval Research account for $23.5 million in combined potential value across 20 awards. Together these five customers account for 80% of all awards and 64% of combined potential value, indicating deep, established customer relationships concentrated in DoD sustainment operations rather than new platforms.
Vehicle positioning is dominated by the Federal Supply Schedule GS00C50167, where Astronautics holds 1,262 task orders, the largest parent vehicle footprint in the portfolio. Two Army Contracting Command indefinite delivery contracts follow: DAEA1885D0057 (133 task orders, $12.246 million ceiling referenced in a Naval Supply Systems Command source document) and DAEA1885D0056 (109 task orders). Two Air Force Basic Ordering Agreements carry 48 and 37 task orders respectively. This vehicle concentration signals a mature, established position across Army supply-chain and Air Force sustainment vehicles rather than broad pursuit across multiple GWACs or GSA Schedules.
Work is performed exclusively at the Oak Creek, Wisconsin facility. Recent representative awards include a $3.27 million Naval Air Systems Command delivery order (October 2023) for AFI-4700 avionics software updates and time-sharing option authorizations with March 2025 completion; a $6.29 million Naval Air Systems Command indefinite delivery contract (October 2023, completed October 2026) for C/KC-130T Electronic Flight Instrument upgrades; a $1.79 million Air Force Sustainment Center single-award indefinite delivery contract (January 2026, completing January 2027) for TH-1H Engine Data Concentrator Unit and Multi-Function Display repair services under sole-source acquisition; and multiple smaller delivery orders from the Air Force Sustainment Center for TH-1H aircraft component repair ranging from $46 thousand to $867 thousand. Purchase orders from Naval Supply Systems Command for circuit card assemblies and control components round out the recent order book.
The portfolio spans 3,674 total awards dating to 1980, with combined potential value of $174.9 million and obligated dollars of $760.2 million (indicating substantial historical invoicing against indefinite delivery vehicles). Activity has been consistent at 4–14 awards annually over the past five years, with only 3 awards reaching ultimate completion within the next twenty-four months and carrying $1.8 million combined potential value — minimal recompete exposure in the near term. Primary NAICS concentration centers on Search, Detection, Navigation, Guidance, Aeronautical, and Nautical System and Instrument Manufacturing (290 awards) and Other Aircraft Parts and Auxiliary Equipment Manufacturing (117 awards). Top PSC codes are Information Technology Equipment System Configuration (836 awards), Flight Instruments (632 awards), and Maintenance/Repair/Rebuild of Equipment (420 awards).
Astronautics subcontracts minimally (1% of awards, 19 total sub-awards) under Boeing on F-15 and T-38 avionics development and advanced procurement, under Northrop Grumman on P-3 aircraft maintenance and logistics support, and under KBR Wyle on avionic product and life-cycle analysis support to the Air Force Sustainment Center. These are subordinate positions in large aerospace and defense primes rather than a core subcontracting business model.
