About the company
Beta Shim CO., operating as Beta Shim Company Division and doing business as Beta Shim Co, is a woman-owned small business based in Shelton, Connecticut that manufactures precision-engineered aerospace components and hardware for the Department of Defense as a prime contractor (68% of recent awards) and as a subcontractor to major defense primes. The company specializes in shims, spacer rings, washers, liners, hubs, and rotary wing components for military aircraft, competing predominantly full-and-open without reliance on set-aside categories, though one recent indefinite delivery contract carries a Total Small Business set-aside.
Customer concentration is highly concentrated with the Defense Logistics Agency Aviation dominating 86% of recent prime awards by count. DLA Aviation has placed 474 awards with Beta Shim Co. valued at $5.2 million combined potential value, supplemented by 37 additional awards from the broader Defense Logistics Agency ($967 thousand), Department of Homeland Security US Coast Guard (59 awards), and the Department of the Navy Naval Air Systems Command (134 awards). The company holds two single-award indefinite delivery contracts with DLA Aviation: a $250,000 IDC through July 2030 for liner, hub, and rotary wing components, and a newly awarded $349,999.99 Total Small Business IDC through April 2031 for general aerospace components. Recent representative prime work includes a May 2026 $4,988.52 delivery order for shimming hardware, a February 2026 $7,388.22 delivery order for a rotary wing hub liner, and an October 2025 $116,729.60 total small business purchase order for 3,680 units of shimming hardware components (NSN 5365013089118).
Activity has grown sharply from 21 awards in 2022 to 178 in 2024 and 105 in 2025, reflecting expanded engagement with DLA Aviation. The combined obligated dollars ($25 million) exceed the combined potential value ($7.8 million) by a factor of 3.19, indicating substantial invoiced work beyond stated ceiling values. The top five parent vehicles carry 128 task orders, anchored by the Indefinite Delivery Contract 70Z02321DAMH00400 (46 task orders) and Basic Ordering Agreement N0038320GX901 (34 task orders). Work is performed at the Shelton, Connecticut facility with supply directed to DLA Distribution and DLA Aviation customers.
In its subcontractor role, Beta Shim Co. supplies aircraft parts and hardware to Sikorsky Aircraft Corporation and Lockheed Martin Corporation, with recent sub awards including helicopter rotary components, control units, gearbox assemblies, swashplate assemblies, rotor hubs, and serrated shims for CH-53K, H-60, Combat Rescue Helicopter, and USCG MH-60T programs. The company's award portfolio concentrates in PSC Bushings, Rings, Shims, and Spacers (362 awards) and Helicopter Rotor Blades, Drive Mechanisms and Components (62 awards), with NAICS distribution across Aircraft Manufacturing (254 awards), Hardware Manufacturing (240 awards), and Other Aircraft Parts and Auxiliary Equipment Manufacturing (127 awards). Beta Shim Co. competes across full-and-open procurements and total small business set-asides with no evidence of 8(a), HUBZone, SDVOSB, or other minority-set-aside designation, establishing it as a competitive supplier in the mainstream defense industrial base rather than a set-aside specialist.
