Capy Machine Shop Inc.

Capy Machine Shop Inc., a woman-owned small business manufacturer of precision-machined aerospace and aviation components based in Melville, New York, operates as a prime contractor supplying the Defense Logistics Agency and Department of Defense with specialized aircraft hardware, structural components, fasteners, and mechanical assemblies on firm fixed-price purchase orders and indefinite delivery contracts.

Capy Machine Shop is a for-profit corporation and woman-owned small business that competes predominantly under total small business set-asides across its Defense Logistics Agency footprint. The company manufactures concrete aerospace and defense hardware: aircraft fasteners and bolts, cylinder and actuator assemblies, landing gear support equipment, structural fittings and plates, hinges and latches, bearings and bushings, tubes and tubing, metal forgings, and miscellaneous aircraft structural components. Recent representative work includes a $901,376.25 total small business set-aside definitive contract from Naval Supply Systems Command in May 2026 for structural components; a $753,470.40 total small business set-aside purchase order from DLA Land and Maritime in July 2025 for slide hooks; a $438,873.40 total small business set-aside purchase order from DLA Aviation in July 2025 for structural support components; and multiple smaller orders for hydraulic assemblies, bearing and bushing components, aircraft doors and access covers, and fastener kits across the DLA Aviation and DLA Land and Maritime supply chains.

Customer concentration sits almost entirely within Defense Logistics Agency components. DLA Aviation accounts for 2,109 awards worth $74.9 million combined potential value—62% of all recent awards and 53% of combined potential value across the entire portfolio. DLA Land and Maritime represents the second-largest customer with 418 awards ($16.2 million combined potential value). Department of the Navy Naval Supply Systems Command, Department of the Air Force Materiel Command, and DLA Hardware and Construction components together add roughly $16.3 million more. The top five customer organizations account for 77% of combined potential value, reflecting tight concentration on defense logistics and aircraft readiness operations.

Capy Machine Shop holds five active single-award indefinite delivery contracts with DLA Aviation and DLA Land and Maritime: a $2.5 million total small business set-aside IDIQ with DLA Aviation (awarded May 27, 2026, through May 26, 2031); three $350,000 ceiling DLA Aviation IDIQs (one each awarded March 30, 2026, through March 29, 2028; November 6, 2025, through November 5, 2030; and March 31, 2026, through March 31, 2027); and a $250,000 DLA Land and Maritime IDIQ for nonmetallic seals (October 9, 2025, through February 25, 2026). Most task order work flows through these vehicles on firm fixed-price terms with delivery windows of 120 to 720 days. The company has received 192 awards (combined potential value $11.6 million) with ultimate completion dates in the next twenty-four months, creating moderate recompete exposure as existing DLA IDIQ ceilings consume remaining authority.

Capy Machine Shop performs subcontract work for Northrop Grumman Systems Corporation on A-10 aircraft structural integrity program engineering services, cylinder assembly manufacturing, and fuselage repair kit production, and has subcontracted for Science and Engineering Services LLC on structural bracket work. These represent a small share of overall activity—all four named sub-awards occurred between July 2024 and April 2026—with the bulk of the vendor's federal footprint anchored in prime contracting.

The award portfolio emphasizes precision machining and aerospace component manufacturing across narrow, high-volume product categories. Top NAICS concentration sits in Other Aircraft Parts and Auxiliary Equipment Manufacturing (1,882 awards), Aircraft Manufacturing (302 awards), and Hardware Manufacturing (218 awards). Top PSC categories center on Airframe Structural Components (1,621 awards), Miscellaneous Aircraft Accessories and Components (239 awards), and Hardware Commercial (173 awards). Performance is concentrated in Melville and Huntington Station, New York, with delivery typically to DLA distribution facilities (particularly San Diego and Warner Robins) or CONUS and OCONUS Defense Logistics Agency depots.

Activity has fluctuated over the past five years—184 awards in 2022, 126 in 2023, 137 in 2024, 216 in 2025, and 87 recorded in the first half of 2026—reflecting the episodic nature of government purchase order activity and task order issuance under existing IDIQs. Combined potential value across the portfolio stands at $140.5 million, with $102.9 million (73%) already obligated. The portfolio reflects a mature, narrow-focus supplier model: high award count, small average order size, total small business set-aside posture, and near-complete dependence on DLA as the buying organization.
