About the company
Derco Aerospace, Inc., a subsidiary of Lockheed Martin Corporation, supplies military aircraft spare parts, structural components, and fasteners to the Department of Defense as a prime contractor through delivery orders placed against indefinite delivery contracts; the vendor competes exclusively in full-and-open procurements with no SBA set-aside designations. Based in Milwaukee, Wisconsin, and operating as a for-profit corporation, Derco holds a captive-supplier role within Lockheed Martin's Rotary and Mission Systems division, with performance distributed across domestic locations including Brown Deer, Valencia, Canton, and Chatsworth serving as primary manufacturing and fulfillment hubs.
Derco's federal footprint is almost entirely concentrated in Defense Logistics Agency Aviation supply chains. The vendor holds 8,362 awards (75% of its combined potential value of $6.19 billion) with DLA Aviation across an active portfolio spanning four decades. Recent representative work includes a $9.8 million delivery order for C-130 aircraft parts and material support (July 2026), a $559,089.66 tube assembly diagonal brace order (June 2026), a $305,648.20 engine motor parts kit delivery order (June 2026), and a $288,437.33 flat washer order (July 2026), all issued through DLA Aviation channels. Beyond DLA Aviation, Derco maintains a secondary presence with Naval Supply Systems Command (235 awards, $19.3 million combined potential value), including a January 2026 single-award indefinite delivery contract ceiling of $3,907,368.30 for repair of segmented rotational brake components with a three-year term running through January 2029 and delivery orders obligating $2.5 million-plus against that IDV. The vendor also holds scattered orders from the Department of the Air Force Materiel Command Lifecycle Management Center at Robins Air Force Base and other DLA sub-organizations at substantially lower dollar volumes.
Derco's capability portfolio is narrow and specialized: structural aircraft components (airframe skins, panels, fairings, brackets, supports), fasteners and hardware (bolts, nuts, screws, washers, rivets, spacers), tubing and sheet metal assemblies, electrical and hydraulic components, and component repair services. The source identifies top NAICS categories as Other Aircraft Parts and Auxiliary Equipment Manufacturing (6,665 awards), Bolt, Nut, Screw, Rivet, and Washer Manufacturing (1,459 awards), Aircraft Engine and Engine Parts Manufacturing (223 awards), and Hardware Manufacturing (178 awards). Top PSC codes align: Airframe Structural Components (2,514 awards), Miscellaneous Aircraft Accessories and Components (545 awards), Hardware Commercial (532 awards), Nuts and Washers (434 awards). Derco operates five primary indefinite delivery contracts: IDC SPE4A520DP002 (3,234 task orders, $55.4 million), IDC SPE4AX20D9403 (1,526 task orders, $49.8 million), IDC SPE4AX20D0012 (1,363 task orders, $11.1 million), Basic Ordering Agreement SPE4A123G0021 (491 task orders, $19.4 million), and IDC SPM40006G0005 (372 task orders, $15.5 million).
Activity has declined year over year from 1,167 awards in 2022 to 682 in 2026 (through mid-July), reflecting market consolidation or reduced DLA Aviation procurement velocity rather than loss of standing. Within the next twenty-four months, 982 awards carrying $42.7 million in combined potential value face ultimate completion and therefore recompete exposure. Derco maintains negligible subcontractor footprint; the source lists one sub-award from February 2025 under Sierra Nevada Company for A-29 Lebanon Program Sustainment Brake Assembly work. As a wholly owned Lockheed Martin subsidiary with no independent teaming relationships or SBA posture, Derco's competitive positioning depends entirely on its embedded status within Lockheed Martin's supply chain and its DLA Aviation contract tenure; the vendor does not pursue work outside the defense aircraft logistics and component repair markets.
