Defense Supply & Manufacturing, Inc.

Defense Supply & Manufacturing, Inc., a woman-owned small business manufacturer based in Fort Atkinson, Wisconsin, supplies industrial and mechanical components for military applications as a prime contractor exclusively to the Defense Logistics Agency, competing primarily under small-business set-asides and full-and-open procurements on an equal footing.

Defense Supply & Manufacturing operates as a for-profit corporation specializing in metal fabrication and assembly of spare parts and components—cylinder assemblies, straight shafts, exhaust pipes, radiator overflow tanks, leveling jacks, air filter kits, cable and stud assemblies, vehicle seat frames, and rotary pumps—all directed toward land, maritime, and aviation equipment maintenance and sustainment across the Department of Defense. The company's recent federal award activity spans 316 total prime awards since 2004, with $12.1 million in combined potential value and $7.2 million in obligated dollars. All work is performed at the Fort Atkinson facility and all awards are firm fixed-price delivery orders or purchase orders issued against indefinite delivery contracts or standalone RFQs.

Customer concentration is extreme: the Defense Logistics Agency Land and Maritime accounts for 286 awards (90% of total count) and $9.8 million (81% of combined potential value), with DLA Aviation adding 17 awards and $1.4 million, and three minor customers—the Department of Homeland Security Office of the Comptroller, DLA Troop Support Construction and Equipment, and DLA Troop Support Hardware—together accounting for the remaining 4 awards. The split between these two DLA divisions reflects product specialization: Land and Maritime orders drive volume and dollars; Aviation orders anchor a single $642,716.80 indefinite delivery contract for leveling jacks running through October 1, 2028.

Defense Supply & Manufacturing holds a portfolio of single-award indefinite delivery contracts with DLA Land and Maritime and DLA Aviation, each with a $250,000 ceiling and one-year to five-year performance periods. The five top parent vehicles by task-order count are Land and Maritime IDCs: SPE7L720D0013 (18 task orders, $436 thousand), SPE7L520D5000 (17 task orders, $101 thousand), SPE7M115D0031 (16 task orders, $202 thousand), SPE7L121D61LQ (10 task orders, $44 thousand), and SPE4A617D0232 (7 task orders, $170 thousand). These IDCs—most designated as Total Small Business set-asides—enable DLA to issue delivery orders and purchase orders against established ceilings as operational requirements arise, eliminating individual competitive solicitations. Recent awards include a $184,277.30 order for rotary pumps (January 2026), a $285,270.00 order for radiator overflow tanks (September 2024), a $105,719.30 order for cylinder assemblies (December 2022), and a $642,716.80 IDC for leveling jacks with DLA Aviation (October 2023). Award frequency has declined from 36 in 2022 to 12 through April 2026, while 11 awards carrying combined potential value of $411 thousand face ultimate completion inside the next twenty-four months, presenting recompete exposure across cylinder assemblies, straight shafts, air filter kits, and vehicle frames.

Award categories concentrate on motor vehicle brake systems, transmissions and power train parts, engine equipment, and fabricated pipe and fittings, with PSC concentration in vehicular brake and steering components, miscellaneous power transmission equipment, vehicular furniture and accessories, engine cooling system components, and hose and railing fittings—a profile consistent with the company's role as a supplier of mechanical and structural parts for military ground and maritime platforms. Defense Supply & Manufacturing has held no subcontract awards and maintains no parent contractors in the recent award record; the vendor operates as an independent supplier to DLA without teaming relationships or subsidiary prime arrangements.
