Design Integrated Technology, Inc.

Design Integrated Technology, Inc., doing business as Dit, is a Virginia-based manufacturer of specialized temperature conditioning equipment and diagnostics that operates as a prime contractor (98% of recent awards) supplying small-dollar purchase orders to defense agencies on a full-and-open basis with no set-aside designation. Dit is a Subchapter S Corporation sole proprietorship, structured as a child entity under parent company Sparc Research LLC, and has maintained a federal contracting footprint since at least 1990. The vendor specializes in precision engineering for mission-critical equipment supporting military maintenance and testing operations, with particular depth in strand burners, temperature control systems, and diagnostic instrumentation.

Dit's customer base concentrates heavily on Navy technical commands. The top five funding agencies account for 83% of recent awards by count, dominated by the Department of the Navy Naval Air Systems Command (12 awards, $309 thousand combined potential value) and Naval Sea Systems Command (10 awards, $559 thousand combined potential value), with the Department of the Army Materiel Command Research Development and Engineering Center (6 awards, $407 thousand), the Department of the Air Force (2 awards, $439 thousand potential value), and the Army Aviation and Missile Life Cycle Management Command (1 award, $231 thousand) rounding out the active set. The potential-value rankings diverge notably from award-count rankings — while Naval Air Systems Command leads in volume, Naval Sea Systems Command and the Air Force Ogden Air Logistics Complex each anchor larger single orders. Dit's work sits primarily under NAICS categories 334513 (Analytical Laboratory Instrument Manufacturing) and related precision equipment manufacturing, with representative PSC codes spanning laboratory equipment, chemical analysis instruments, environmental chambers, and pressure and temperature measuring instruments.

Recent prime work includes a $438.7 thousand firm fixed-price purchase order from the Air Force Ogden Air Logistics Complex (July 2025) for five KSI strand burners supporting the 309th Missile Maintenance Group at Hill Air Force Base, Utah; an $8.5 thousand Naval Sea Systems Command purchase order for repair and parts (March 2026); and a $21.6 thousand Naval Sea Systems Command diagnostic and repair engagement (September 2021) for a Dit strand burner. Dit subcontracts to Lockheed Martin Corporation on scope involving computer data collection, installation, calibration testing, and long-lead procurement activities (September 2024 award). Award activity has remained sparse and steady — one award per year in 2020, 2021, 2024, 2025, and 2026 — with only one award ($8 thousand combined potential value) reaching ultimate completion inside the next twenty-four months and therefore facing recompete risk in that window.
