Crye Precision LLC

Crye Precision LLC, doing business as Atlas Standard, manufactures tactical apparel, body armor systems, and protective equipment as a prime contractor (91% of recent awards) to defense and law enforcement agencies, with a secondary presence as a subcontractor (9% of awards). Based in Brooklyn, New York, Crye Precision is a self-certified small disadvantaged business operating as a for-profit limited liability company and manufacturer of goods; the firm competes predominantly in full-and-open (non-set-aside) federal procurements, though it has received scattered small business set-aside awards.

Crye Precision's capability portfolio centers on design and manufacture of specialized military and law enforcement tactical clothing, including combat uniforms in multiple camouflage patterns (Multicam, Ranger Green, Multicam Black), G3 and G4 combat pants and field shirts, body armor carriers and plate carriers, load carriage systems, cold-weather apparel, and ancillary tactical gear. Representative prime awards include a $2.124 million definitive contract from Army RDECOM for tactical clothing (January 2026), a $708.582 million definitive contract from Army RDECOM for uniforms (September 2024), a $589,050 Other Transaction Agreement from Joint PEO Chemical and Biological Defense for chemical-biological protective ensemble prototypes (December 2025), and a $375,230 OTA IDV from U.S. Special Operations Command for FTHS prototype helmets (December 2024). The firm also holds recurring task orders under the Special Operations Equipment — Tailored Logistics Support vehicle (29 task orders) and the Indefinite Delivery Contract W911QY10D0061 (12 task orders, $738 thousand combined potential value).

Customer concentration is heavily skewed toward Army modernization and special operations. The top five customer agencies by potential value account for 97% of combined potential value, led by the Department of the Army Acquisition Support Center PEO Soldier (15 awards, $101 million combined potential value), the United States Marine Corps (11 awards, $75.5 million combined potential value), and Army RDECOM (104 awards, $38.5 million combined potential value). Award count concentration presents a different profile: Army RDECOM dominates by volume (104 awards, $38.5 million) alongside the Department of Justice FBI Headquarters Division (49 awards, $1.8 million) and DEA (37 awards, $477 thousand), reflecting Crye's role as both a bulk supplier to large Army modernization efforts and a tactical-apparel vendor for federal law enforcement. The top parent vehicle, Special Operations Equipment — Tailored Logistics Support, carries 29 task orders but no disclosed potential value; this vehicle is the primary ordering mechanism for recurring small purchases to special operations forces.

Activity has grown significantly: twelve awards in 2022 to forty-six in 2024, with fifteen awards in 2025 and three year-to-date in 2026. Combined potential value across all 399 awards (prime and sub) is $225.3 million, with $119.1 million obligated (53% execution rate). The recompete cliff is minimal — only one award (valued at $589 thousand) reaches ultimate completion in the next twenty-four months, indicating stable, high-volume renewal demand and no material contract loss risk in that window.

Crye Precision subcontracts primarily to Atlantic Diving Supply, Inc., a larger military equipment supplier; recent sub-awards under ADS include G4 field shirts and combat pants in Multicam and Ranger Green (January 2025), ballistic plate-carrier systems (October 2024), and aviation field apparel (August 2024). The subcontract footprint is characterized by supply of branded Crye products to ADS for distribution through federal ordering channels rather than independent subcontracted development or manufacturing.

By NAICS and PSC, Crye Precision's footprint aligns tightly with its core business: 120 awards under Apparel Accessories and Other Apparel Manufacturing, 42 under Cut and Sew Apparel Contractors, and 40 under All Other Miscellaneous Manufacturing. Top PSC categories are Clothing, Special Purpose (195 awards) and Individual Equipment (88 awards), with 24 awards for armor and personal protective systems. This concentration reflects a vertically focused supplier with limited diversification into adjacent categories.
