Bennett Industries, Inc.

Bennett Industries, Inc. Steel Products Division is a small business metal fabrication company headquartered in Tacoma, Washington, with over 65 years of operational history specializing in the manufacture of metal components and assemblies for military logistics and equipment support. The company has established itself as a trusted supplier to the Defense Logistics Agency (DLA) Land and Maritime, having received over 100 prime federal contract awards in the past decade. Bennett Industries manufactures a diverse range of steel and welded metal products that support critical infrastructure across U.S. military bases, vessels, vehicles, aircraft, and weapons systems both domestically and internationally.

Bennett Industries' federal contract work has been predominantly concentrated with the Defense Logistics Agency Land and Maritime, reflecting a highly specialized supplier relationship within the military logistics ecosystem. The company's primary product lines include marine metal doors, operator assemblies, doorstops, shims, windows, and other specialized steel components manufactured at its Tacoma facility. These deliverables support DLA's mission to provide global logistics support to the U.S. armed forces by equipping depots that provision military equipment and infrastructure worldwide. Contract awards have been structured as firm fixed-price delivery orders under existing Indefinite Delivery Contracts, with individual delivery orders typically ranging from approximately $5,000 to $130,000 in value. The majority of Bennett Industries' delivery orders carry no set-aside designation, though the company has received several awards under total small business set-asides, demonstrating its qualification as a small business manufacturer. Bennett Industries has also received minor awards from the Defense Logistics Agency Aviation command for the supply of shim sets. Performance of work is consistently executed at the company's Steel Products Division facility in Tacoma, Washington 98421, with delivery to various DLA depot locations both within and outside the Continental United States. The company operates as a prime contractor on all identified awards with no identified major subcontractors in the contract documentation.

Bennett Industries currently maintains six active Indefinite Delivery Contracts with the Defense Logistics Agency Land and Maritime, collectively representing approximately $4.4 million in potential ceiling value. The most substantial of these IDCs, awarded August 12, 2025, carries a $250,000 ceiling and is focused on the provision of operator assembler hardware items (National Stock Number 2040013918234) with a guaranteed minimum quantity of 10 units and an estimated 12 delivery orders per year, requiring delivery within 127 days after order issuance. A second $250,000 ceiling IDC awarded April 16, 2025, covers the procurement of KIT, DOORSTOP items (National Stock Number 5340014960563) with a guaranteed minimum of 8 units and an estimated 4 orders per year, of which two delivery orders have already been issued totaling approximately $26,656. An additional $250,000 IDC awarded August 23, 2024, provides authorization for delivery orders of operator assemblies, with task orders issued at values ranging from approximately $17,577 to $29,295. A total small business set-aside IDC valued at $250,000 and awarded August 29, 2023, similarly covers operator assemblies (NSN 8510809492) and expired August 28, 2024. Two additional $250,000 ceiling small business set-aside IDCs, one awarded September 9, 2022, and another awarded September 2, 2021, both provided for operator assembly services with one-year performance periods and have since expired or are near expiration. All identified IDVs are single-award contracts issued by the Defense Logistics Agency Land and Maritime with no parent vehicles identified, and all operate under firm fixed-price structures with no set-aside designations on the IDV level itself, though some underlying contracts maintain small business set-aside status. The contract vehicles enable DLA to issue task orders on an as-needed basis to fulfill military logistics requirements across domestic and overseas installations, leveraging Bennett Industries' established metal fabrication capabilities and proven performance history.
