Centroid, Inc.

Centroid, Inc., a foreign-owned electronic components manufacturer based in Plainview, New York, delivers specialized defense electronics—power supplies, control panel assemblies, circuit card assemblies, transformers, dimming module assemblies, and related components—as a prime contractor to the Defense Logistics Agency and other Department of Defense entities on a competitive (non-set-aside) basis. Centroid is a subsidiary of Ontic Engineering & Manufacturing, Inc., a major aerospace and defense supplier based in California.

Centroid competes entirely in full-and-open procurements; the recent award portfolio carries no set-aside designations. The company operates across multiple DLA divisions as the dominant supplier of specialized electronic components for military vehicles, aircraft, vessels, and weapon systems, with recent representative work including a $267,981 firm-fixed-price delivery order from DLA Aviation (December 2025) for dimming module assemblies for C/KC transport aircraft, a $1.57 million DLA Land and Maritime power supply delivery order (October 2025), and a $793,683 purchase order for 171 units of sensor switches (August 2025). Centroid also holds delivery orders from the Naval Supply Systems Command, Air Force Materiel Command, and Air Force Sustainment Center, though DLA dominates the customer base.

Customer concentration sits overwhelmingly with DLA. The top five customers account for 85% of recent awards, led by DLA Land and Maritime (1,738 awards, $112.3 million combined potential value) and DLA Aviation (952 awards, $91.7 million), with remaining volume split among DLA's unspecified divisions, the Department of the Navy Naval Supply Systems Command, the Department of the Air Force, and minor exposure to other defense and civilian agencies. The two rankings track closely—DLA Land and Maritime anchors both award count and dollars.

Centroid holds four active single-award Indefinite Delivery Contracts with DLA. The largest is a $9.9 million IDC with DLA Land and Maritime for power supplies (valid through August 2027), under which dozens of purchase orders and delivery orders have been placed, with individual task orders ranging from sub-$10,000 to over $2 million. A $2.5 million DLA Aviation IDC for dimming module assemblies runs through December 2027 and has generated three delivery orders totaling $1.8 million. A $1.94 million DLA Land and Maritime IDC for control panel assemblies (valid through March 2025) and a $2 million DLA Aviation IDC for dimming module assemblies (valid through August 2026) round out the held vehicles. All are single-award contracts issued without set-aside designation.

Activity has been stable year over year—66 to 85 awards annually in the past five years—with 12 awards captured in 2026 year-to-date. Forty-six awards (combined potential value $10.1 million) reach completion in the next twenty-four months, representing meaningful recompete exposure. The award portfolio spans electronics manufacturing across NAICS 334419 (Other Electronic Component Manufacturing), 334418 (Printed Circuit Assembly Manufacturing), 335311 (Power, Distribution, and Specialty Transformer Manufacturing), and related equipment codes, with PSC concentration in electrical and electronic assemblies (PSC 57 and 59).

Centroid does not subcontract; all 4,645 awards in the portfolio are prime contracts. The company operates as a 100% prime-focused supplier and has not received any sub-award work in the source data, positioning it as a direct supplier to the defense logistics network rather than a teaming partner. The corporate structure shows Centroid as a child entity of Ontic Engineering & Manufacturing, Inc., which itself holds federal prime contracts and IDVs with DLA and the U.S. Coast Guard for aircraft parts, struts, landing gear, and maintenance services; Centroid's electronic components capability extends the parent's portfolio into specialized avionic and electronics assembly supply for military platforms.

Centroid's market posture is that of a niche, high-volume supplier of specialized, approved-source electronic components for defense aviation and maritime logistics, competing openly for task orders under pre-established IDC vehicles and spot purchases against competitor lists that typically include Rockwell Collins, GE, and other tier-one suppliers. The company's competitive position depends on quality, delivery reliability, and approved-source designation maintenance rather than set-aside protection or teaming leverage.
