ECI Defense Group, Inc.

ECI Defense Group, Inc., Eci-Ga Division, a for-profit Subchapter S corporation headquartered in Lawrenceville, Georgia, manufactures and supplies specialized military components, parts, and consumable supplies to the Department of Defense as a prime contractor (100% of recent awards) across aviation, maritime, and ground vehicle logistics and maintenance programs. The vendor operates almost entirely on full-and-open procurements with no characteristic set-aside posture, though some task orders carry Total Small Business set-asides; as a certified small business, ECI Defense Group competes across DLA divisions and Naval commands on firm fixed-price purchase orders and delivery orders for individual components and modular assemblies.

ECI Defense Group's revenue footprint is heavily concentrated in a narrow set of customers and product categories. The Defense Logistics Agency Land and Maritime division accounts for 4,381 awards and $262.1 million in combined potential value—roughly 47% of all dollars—followed by DLA Aviation with 2,734 awards and $169.6 million (30% of dollars), and Naval Supply Systems Command with 388 awards and $90.6 million (16% of dollars). Together, these three customers account for 98% of all awards and 96% of combined potential value. The vendor's top NAICS categories are aircraft parts and auxiliary equipment manufacturing (1,451 awards), industrial valve manufacturing (585 awards), and gasket and sealing device manufacturing (450 awards); the top PSC codes track to miscellaneous aircraft accessories and components (1,028 awards), aircraft air conditioning and pressurization equipment (954 awards), and valves (811 awards). Representative recent work includes a $1.5 million sole-source definitive contract from Naval Supply Systems Command in March 2026 for paradrogue assembly; a $4.87 million sole-source definitive contract from Naval Supply Systems Command in March 2026 for aircraft oxygen bottle repair (180 units); a $1.3 million firm fixed-price definitive contract from DLA Land and Maritime in March 2026 for fitting assemblies (critical Navy safety items); a $1.5 million purchase order from the Department of the Navy in March 2026 for original equipment manufacturer Buffalo pumps; and a $942 thousand purchase order from Naval Supply Systems Command in April 2026 for a centrifugal pump. The vendor also holds four active single-award indefinite delivery contracts with DLA Land and Maritime, each with $350,000 ceilings, established in April 2026 for gaskets, motor starters, shaft assemblies, and seal assemblies.

Activity has grown sharply from 568 awards in 2022 to 1,892 in 2025, with 423 awards logged so far in 2026 (a partial-year figure). However, 761 awards with combined potential value of $109.5 million face ultimate completion within the next twenty-four months, creating significant recompete exposure. The vendor operates primarily as a prime contractor; sub-award activity is minimal (eight sub-awards across the entire historical period), with one recent sub engagement on a transformer assembly procurement through Fairwinds Technologies LLC. All work is performed in Lawrenceville, Georgia. The vendor's business model relies on responsive supply of commodity and specialized aerospace/maritime components through purchase-order channels and small indefinite delivery contracts at predictable margins, with no apparent teaming relationships or parent vehicle positions beyond the four DLA single-award IDCs held in-house.
