Concorde Battery Corporation

Concorde Battery Corporation, doing business as Concorde Battery Corp, manufactures and delivers valve-regulated sealed lead-acid batteries, absorbed glass mat batteries, and deep-cycle battery storage products to federal defense and civilian agencies as a prime contractor, competing predominantly in full-and-open (unrestricted) procurements without SBA set-aside designations. The West Covina, California–based for-profit manufacturer holds a parent corporate structure and operates a subsidiary, Copperstate Battery Inc.

Concorde's federal business is overwhelmingly concentrated with the Defense Logistics Agency (DLA) Land and Maritime, which accounts for 976 of the vendor's 1,406 prime awards (91% of activity) and $263.1 million of the $281 million combined potential value across all awards. The remaining customer base—DLA Aviation (69 awards, $9.8 million), general DLA (195 awards, $1.7 million), Naval Air Systems Command (25 awards, $944 thousand), and the U.S. Geological Survey (11 awards, $1.6 million)—represents a highly concentrated defense logistics footprint. Award velocity has declined from 98 awards in 2022 to 61 in 2025 and 15 year-to-date in 2026, suggesting either market saturation or seasonal variability within the DLA supply cycle.

Concorde holds five active indefinite delivery contracts (IDCs) with DLA Land and Maritime: a $12.2 million single-award IDC (awarded March 2026, completion March 2031); a $13.2 million Total Small Business set-aside single-award IDC (awarded July 2024, completion July 2029); a $10.09 million single-award IDC (awarded February 2024, completion February 2029); a $3.7 million multiple-award IDC (awarded September 2023, completion September 2028); and a $350 thousand Total Small Business set-aside single-award IDC (awarded February 2026, completion February 2031). Across these vehicles, Concorde issues delivery orders (both purchase orders and task orders) at firm fixed price, typically valued between $12 thousand and $900 thousand, with completion dates extending 90 to 350 days post-award. Representative recent delivery orders include a $675.3 million order (April 2024, DLA Land and Maritime), a $608.6 million order (July 2025), and a $629.9 million Total Small Business set-aside order (November 2025). The top five parent IDC vehicles carry 538 task orders with $38.7 million in combined potential value, anchoring Concorde's order fulfillment across five DLA procurement vehicles.

Concorde's capability scope is narrow and specialized: the vendor manufactures batteries meeting Military Specification MIL-PRF-8565L and procures products by National Stock Number (NSN) across Federal Supply Class 6140. NAICS coding reflects 975 awards under Storage Battery Manufacturing (NAICS 335910) and 87 under Battery Manufacturing. Product Service Code 6240 (Batteries, Rechargeable) accounts for 1,376 awards. Concorde delivers batteries to DLA distribution depots (Hill, San Joaquin, Warner Robins, Jacksonville, Cherry Point) and performs manufacturing at its West Covina facility with FOB Destination and Inspection & Acceptance at origin and destination.

Concorde operates as a subcontractor to Boeing (four sub-awards for MQ-25 EMD non-production work since June 2025) and Lockheed Martin (one sub-award in January 2025 for C-130J battery integration). Six subcontract awards represent less than 1% of Concorde's footprint; the vendor is functionally a prime-only supplier.

Within the next twenty-four months, seventeen awards with combined potential value of $3.1 million reach ultimate completion, presenting a recompete pipeline anchored to DLA's existing contract renewal cycle. No recompete cliff concentrations suggest that Concorde's revenue exposure is distributed across multiple IDC vehicles rather than dependent on single large vehicle renewals, though the $13.2 million Total Small Business set-aside IDC (expiring July 2029) represents the single largest active vehicle. Concorde's federal footprint is characterized by high transaction volume, low order-size heterogeneity, and extreme customer concentration—a profile typical of specialized component manufacturers serving a single logistics integrator (DLA) through standing inventory and on-call fulfillment models.
