About the company
E.l. Wood Braiding Co., Inc., a for-profit Subchapter S Corporation manufacturer based in Marathon, New York, manufactures and supplies specialized fibrous cord and cordage materials exclusively to the Defense Logistics Agency as a prime contractor on individual purchase orders, with no subcontractor involvement and no SBA set-aside designations on the majority of awards. The company competes predominantly full-and-open, though a small subset of recent awards carry Total Small Business set-asides.
E.l. Wood Braiding specializes in fibrous cord products (PSC code Fiber Rope, Cordage, And Twine; NAICS 331511 — Rope, Cordage, Twine, Tire Cord, and Tire Fabric Mills). Its federal work consists of firm fixed-price DLA purchase orders for cordage and fibrous materials supporting defense logistics and military infrastructure. Representative recent awards include a $79,072 Total Small Business purchase order from DLA Construction and Equipment in December 2024 for 400 units of cordage; a $29,875 firm fixed-price order in May 2026 for fibrous cord; and a $14,989.72 Total Small Business award in May 2025 for similar materials.
Customer concentration is extreme and singular. DLA Troop Support Construction and Equipment accounts for 71 of 99 total awards (96% of award count) and $967 thousand of combined potential value; the remaining 28 awards distribute across DLA Aviation (2 awards, $14 thousand), DLA Troop Support Clothing and Textiles (1 award, $6 thousand), DLA Troop Support Hardware (1 award, $16 thousand), and unspecified DLA divisions (20 awards). The company sits on two IDCs (Indefinite Delivery Contracts SP050006D5003 and SP050097D5661) but places no material volume through parent vehicles; all work is direct purchase-order awards from DLA Construction and Equipment.
Activity has been sparse and irregular over the past five years — ranging from 2 awards in 2023 to 7 in 2025, with only 4 awards in 2026 through June. One award carries an ultimate completion date in the next twenty-four months (combined potential value $30 thousand), representing minimal recompete exposure. The source notes the company has held federal contracts since at least August 2001 and has secured approximately 24 awards historically, though the broader portfolio reflects 99 total awards in the source data. Combined potential value across all awards is $1 million, but combined dollars obligated across all awards totals $3.1 million (311% of combined potential value), indicating the company consistently delivers under ceiling and receives repeat orders from the same contracting office. Contract values historically range from $318 to $79,072, reflecting the transactional nature of specialized cordage procurement by defense logistics operations.
