Crown Aerospace Inc.

Crown Aerospace Inc., a minority-owned and woman-owned small business based in Spring, Texas, supplies precision aerospace and industrial components to the Defense Logistics Agency and other Department of Defense entities as a prime contractor exclusively, operating across full-and-open competition with no set-aside designations applied to recent awards.

Crown Aerospace specializes in the supply of aviation spare parts, ground equipment, mechanical components, and valve assemblies critical to military maintenance, repair, and overhaul operations. The company's portfolio spans bearing sleeves, bushings, housings, couplings, dampers, interlock harnesses, receptacles, air filter adapters, torsion bars, connectors, and related mechanical components that support military aircraft, vessel, and ground systems. Representative recent work includes a $27,500 purchase order from the Defense Logistics Agency Aviation for an air filter adapter (August 2025), a $38,400 purchase order from DLA Troop Support Construction and Equipment for sixteen interlock harness units (December 2023), and a $19,044 purchase order from DLA Aviation for a turnlock receptacle (August 2024). All awards are firm fixed-price purchase orders with contract values historically ranging from $125 to $38,400 and ultimate completion dates typically thirty to ninety days from award.

Customer concentration is extreme and DLA-centric. The top five customer divisions account for 98% of awards and 91% of combined potential value. Defense Logistics Agency Aviation dominates the portfolio with 147 awards valued at $586 thousand, followed by DLA Land and Maritime with 110 awards valued at $468 thousand. DLA Troop Support Construction and Equipment, DLA Troop Support Hardware, and the Air Force Sustainment Center together account for the remainder. No customer concentration tension exists between award count and dollar value — the rankings track in identical order. The company has also worked with the Naval Sea Systems Command (one $17,494.56 award for volumetric meters, September 2023) and Army Materiel Command TACOM Life Cycle Management Command.

Crown Aerospace has no parent vehicles, IDIQs, or GWACs in its footprint. All awards are discrete purchase orders issued by DLA divisions or other agencies without reference to master contracts or ordering vehicles. The company operates exclusively as a prime contractor with no subcontract work.

Activity has remained shallow and stable. The source spans twenty years of registration (first award April 2005), with an average of roughly six awards per year in the most recent five-year window (2020–2026). The company received five awards in 2026 through early April, fourteen in 2025, ten in 2024, ten in 2023, and five in 2020. Combined potential value across all three hundred twenty awards totals $1.5 million, with 100% obligated — indicating these are small-dollar consumables and components procured in high volume but individually modest in value. The top product categories by award count are other aircraft parts and auxiliary equipment manufacturing (thirty-six awards), hardware manufacturing (twenty-eight awards), mechanical power transmission equipment (twenty-five awards), aircraft engine and engine parts (twenty-five awards), and ball and roller bearing manufacturing (eighteen awards). By PSC code, the majority fall under hardware, miscellaneous power transmission equipment, nonpowered valves, and gas turbine components. Crown Aerospace has maintained federal contractor registration since 2004 and has performed consistently across DLA's multiple divisions without recompete or vehicle-based concentration risk.
