About Bay Shore Steel Works LLC
Bay Shore Steel Works LLC, doing business as Bay Shore Steel, is a Native American-owned, tribally owned steel fabricator and military-vehicle-component manufacturer competing predominantly as a prime contractor (51% of recent awards) on small business set-asides and full-and-open federal buys through the Defense Logistics Agency, the Department of the Army, and civilian agencies. Bay Shore Steel is an SBA Certified 8(a) Program Participant (expires August 19, 2030), a HUBZone-certified firm, and a subsidiary of the Grand Traverse Band of Ottawa and Chippewa Indians, a federally recognized tribe. The company is headquartered in Warrior, Alabama, with manufacturing performed in Charlevoix, Michigan, and is owned by parent company DCL Inc. (Dust Control & Loading Systems), a Subchapter S corporation.
Bay Shore Steel's capability portfolio centers on manufacturing armor plates, supplemental armor components, mounting brackets, hinges, access covers, antenna base adapters, and vehicular C-brackets for military vehicles and defense logistics applications. Representative prime work includes a $66.7 million indefinite delivery contract with DLA Land and Maritime (HUBZone set-aside, awarded December 2023) for vehicular brackets; a $77.2 million HUBZone indefinite delivery contract also from DLA Land and Maritime (awarded November 2023) for vehicular C-brackets; a $2.0 million Blanket Purchase Agreement from the National Institutes of Health Construction (awarded March 2026) for structured cabling services; a $350,000 single-award indefinite delivery contract from DLA Land and Maritime (Total Small Business set-aside, awarded February 2026) for mounting plates; and a $250,000 supplemental-armor indefinite delivery contract from DLA Land and Maritime (Total Small Business set-aside, awarded November 2024). Individual purchase orders range from $600 to $43.8 thousand for discrete shipments of armor plate, brackets, and hardware components.
Customer concentration is heavily weighted to defense. DLA Land and Maritime accounts for 37 awards ($1.2 million combined potential value), followed by Department of the Army Acquisition Support Center PEO Ground Combat Systems with 28 awards and the Department of the Army with 21 awards; these three entities represent 90% of award count. By potential value, HHS National Institutes of Health Construction dominates at $2.0 million (the single structured-cabling BPA); DLA Land and Maritime follows with $1.2 million. The $115 million in total awards listed reflects Bay Shore Steel's role as a subcontractor to General Dynamics Land Systems on multiple delivery orders for the Optionally Manned Fighting Vehicle (Phase 3–4 development with seven prototype deliverables), Abrams tank production and upgrades (M1A1 SEPv3 variant), Stryker vehicle production (5th Brigade DVHA1 variants), and Short-Range Air Defense systems across 2023–2025.
Bay Shore Steel holds a dominant position on two Army indefinite delivery contracts: IDC W56HZV21D0001 (27 task orders placed against it for armored vehicle component work) and IDC W56HZV20D0005 (7 task orders). The structured-cabling BPA from NIH Construction (75N98026A00007) represents an expansion beyond traditional defense manufacturing into federal facilities infrastructure. The vendor does not hold seats on government-wide acquisition contracts such as GSA Schedules or multi-agency IDIQs; nearly all work flows through single-award or limited-competition vehicles.
Activity has accelerated sharply, growing from two awards in 2022 to 51 in 2025, with 16 awards already recorded in 2026 as of early April. Only five awards ($56 thousand combined potential value) face ultimate completion within the next twenty-four months, indicating minimal recompete cliff exposure in the near term and stable contract backlog. As a subcontractor, Bay Shore Steel is engaged exclusively with General Dynamics Land Systems on military vehicle development and production, delivering components and services for the Optionally Manned Fighting Vehicle, Abrams family of vehicles, and Stryker platform variants. By NAICS category, 67 of 115 awards fall under Military Armored Vehicle, Tank, and Tank Component Manufacturing (NAICS 336992), with secondary work in Hardware Manufacturing (10 awards) and Bolt, Nut, Screw, Rivet, and Washer Manufacturing (6 awards). The vendor competes primarily under Total Small Business and HUBZone set-asides where applicable; many purchase orders carry no formal set-aside but leverage the vendor's 8(a) and HUBZone certifications in full-and-open competition.
