Safran Cabin Inc.

Safran Cabin Inc., doing business as C & D Zodiac Inc., a subsidiary of Safran Power USA LLC based in Costa Mesa, California, supplies aircraft interior components and structural parts to the Department of Defense and Department of Homeland Security as a prime contractor on small-dollar purchase orders and indefinite delivery contracts, with minimal subcontract exposure.

Safran Cabin is a for-profit manufacturer of goods with primary NAICS concentration in Other Aircraft Parts and Auxiliary Equipment Manufacturing (31 of 42 awards) and secondary exposure in Aircraft Manufacturing (4 awards). The vendor does not hold SBA set-aside certifications and competes full-and-open across its federal footprint. The parent company, Safran Power USA LLC, is a separate for-profit LLC and manufacturer of goods based in Twinsburg, Ohio, which carries its own federal contract prime awards and grant work.

Customer concentration is diffuse across defense customers with no single agency dominating either volume or dollars. The Department of Homeland Security US Coast Guard leads by award count (4 awards, $36 thousand combined potential value), followed by the Department of the Air Force Materiel Command (2 awards) and Defense Logistics Agency Aviation (2 awards, $9 thousand combined potential value). All identified customers together account for 24% of awards and 26% of combined potential value, indicating a long tail of additional smaller customer relationships. The vendor places task orders under three indefinite delivery contracts, anchored by Air Force IDC FA852621D0001 (2 task orders). Recent work includes a July 2021 $95 purchase order with Naval Supply Systems Command for screws and fasteners. Sub awards are minimal — two Boeing sub awards dating to January 2026 and December 2025 for C-17 Globemaster III and G3 Phase II interiors material orders.

Activity is sparse: a total of six awards across the last five years (2011 through 2026), with only one award in each of 2021, 2025, and 2026. Combined potential value across all 42 historical awards (dating to 1982) totals $189 thousand; combined dollars obligated ($1.5 million) reflects historical payments substantially exceeding stated potential values on older contracts. The PSC footprint is dominated by Miscellaneous Aircraft Accessories and Components (24 awards) and Airframe Structural Components (4 awards), positioning the vendor as a supplier of commoditized aircraft hardware and interior furnishings rather than systems integration or engineering services.
