Calculex Inc.

Calculex Inc. is a for-profit manufacturer of specialized aviation data recording and processing systems based in Las Cruces, New Mexico, with nearly 25 years of federal contracting experience since its registration in SAM.gov in August 2001. The company specializes in the design, production, and repair of advanced electronic components and data recording systems for military aircraft platforms, serving as a key Department of Defense supplier with particular expertise in flight data recorders and integrated processor systems for platforms including the B-52, F-15, and F-16. Calculex's core competency centers on providing mission-critical airborne data recording and processing capabilities that support military aviation operations and logistics across multiple Air Force commands and agencies.

Calculex has demonstrated extensive capability through its prime federal contract awards, which collectively span repair services, equipment supply, and technical support across multiple aircraft platforms and systems. The company has provided Airborne Data Recorders (ADRs) to the Air Force Materiel Command through numerous delivery orders, with individual contract values ranging from approximately $35,000 to $3.7 million, including a significant $3.7 million delivery order for B-52 mission data recorder B-kits awarded in September 2021. Additionally, Calculex has been awarded multiple delivery orders by the Air Force Sustainment Center for repair services of F-15 flight data recorders and Recorder Integrated Processor Routers (RIPR), with recent awards including a $1.78 million delivery order in September 2023 and a $1.17 million delivery order in August 2025, reflecting the company's ongoing strategic role in Air Force sustainment operations. The company has also provided repair services for Fully Integrated Data Link (FIDL) systems, technical representative services for electrical and electronic equipment components, fire wire data acquisition units, and procurement of specialized components including receiver groups and medical cartridges for the Defense Logistics Agency. All of Calculex's prime contract awards have been issued without small business set-aside designations, indicating the company's competitive standing as a full-service provider. Beyond its prime contracting activities, Calculex has served as a subcontractor to major defense firms including Lockheed Martin Corporation and Atlantic Diving Supply, Inc., delivering specialized components such as removable memory modules, fire-wire data acquisition units, fibre-optic splitters, and HD MRPS systems supporting advanced aircraft development and sustainment programs.

Calculex currently holds four active Indefinite Delivery Contracts that provide the framework for ongoing sustainment and supply relationships with federal agencies. The company's largest IDV is a $6.5 million single-award contract with the Air Force Sustainment Center for the repair of F-15 flight data recorders and recorder integrated processor routers, extending through August 2028, under which multiple delivery orders have been issued for repair services at its Las Cruces facility. A second IDV valued at $7 million was awarded by the Defense Logistics Agency Troop Support for the procurement of cartridges, designated as National Stock Number 4610090959, with performance extending through July 2027; this contract carries a Total Small Business set-aside designation despite being awarded to Calculex, a for-profit entity. The company also holds a $4.857 million single-award IDV with the Air Force Test Center (under Air Force Materiel Command) for debriefing equipment, analysis services, and airborne data recorder support, under which delivery orders totaling $8.826 million were issued between 2016 and 2021 for debriefing control panels, upgrades, parts, and analysis reporting services. Most recently, Calculex was awarded a $340,320 single-award IDV by the Air Force Sustainment Center in March 2025 for repair services related to Fully Integrated Data Link (FIDL) systems, with an ultimate completion date of September 1, 2026; this contract has already generated a $100,332 delivery order in April 2025 for FIDL repair services with performance extending through April 2030. These IDVs collectively demonstrate Calculex's established position as a trusted, sole-source provider of critical sustainment and supply services across multiple Air Force components and the Defense Logistics Agency.
