EHB Supply

EHB Supply, a woman-owned sole proprietorship based in Silverdale, Washington, supplies specialized naval equipment, components, and raw materials to the Department of Defense as a prime contractor across full-and-open and set-aside procurements, with approximately 60% of recent awards designated as total small business set-asides. The company does not subcontract and has no parent contract vehicles; it competes for purchase orders directly with federal agencies, primarily through the Defense Logistics Agency and Naval Sea Systems Command.

EHB Supply's customer concentration is acute and Navy-centric. The Department of the Navy's Naval Sea Systems Command accounts for 4,469 awards (77.9% of the source portfolio) valued at $49.9 million combined potential value, anchoring the business. The Defense Logistics Agency Aviation, Land and Maritime, and Troop Support divisions collectively place 568 awards worth $17.5 million. The U.S. Pacific Fleet Forces accounts for 468 awards ($4.9 million combined potential value). These five customer nodes represent 96% of award count and 96% of potential value. The divergence between award count and dollar ranking is negligible—NAVSEA dominates both dimensions.

Capability footprint is granular and commoditized. EHB Supply delivers mechanical fasteners (bolts, nuts, screws, washers), synthetic rubber and elastomer products, packing and gasket materials, hose and hose assemblies, hardware components, thermal insulation, tubing and piping, electrical cable and connectors, marine equipment (batteries, seals, rudder stock), tools and safety equipment, and raw materials (rubber sheets, adhesives, epoxy, vinyl-coated wire). Recent named awards illustrate scope: a $238,080 total small business set-aside for lower sleeve rudder stock (December 2025, NAVSEA); a $198,865 total small business set-aside for bellows (November 2025, NAVSEA); a $183,126 total small business set-aside for cable assemblies (April 2026, NAVSEA); a $148,451 non-set-aside purchase order for resilient mounts for weapons applications (September 2025, DLA Aviation); a $122,084 total small business set-aside for cable assemblies with power outboard molded plug assembly components (April 2026, NAVSEA). Work spans single-part purchases under $1,000 to complex naval component assemblies exceeding $200,000. Performance locations vary—Silverdale is both headquarters and frequent performance site near Puget Sound Naval Shipyard—but the company fulfills orders with performance across the continental U.S., overseas (Germany, Italy, Canada), and delivery to naval facilities worldwide.

Activity trajectory shows maturity without growth. Annual award count peaked at 455 in 2024, declined to 408 in 2025, and dropped to 97 through mid-2026 (a three-month snapshot). The portfolio spans over two decades of federal contracting, with the earliest award dated October 2000. The company has issued 5,736 purchase orders across 31 federal agencies; 99.9% flow from Navy and DLA. The recompete cliff is immaterial—only 33 awards ($1.3 million combined potential value) complete within twenty-four months, suggesting low near-term revenue risk and limited pipeline urgency for this vendor class.

NAICS concentration reinforces commodity positioning. Bolt, Nut, Screw, Rivet, and Washer Manufacturing (332722) leads with 380 awards; Synthetic Rubber Manufacturing (325212) accounts for 322; Hardware Manufacturing (332510) covers 264. PSC codes (product service codes) align: Packing and Gasket Materials (549 awards), Hose/Pipe/Tube Fittings (319), Rubber Fabricated Materials (309), Commercial Hardware (235). This concentration is a strategic signal—EHB Supply competes in high-volume, low-margin commodity supply chains where volume, reliability, and geographic proximity to Puget Sound Naval Shipyard drive win rates far more than innovation or technical differentiation.

EHB Supply operates as a women-owned small business eligible for set-aside competition but does not restrict itself to set-asides. Approximately 60% of awards carry total or partial small business set-aside designation; 40% compete full-and-open, suggesting the vendor can win on pricing and capability without preference. All work is performed as prime contractor—zero sub-award activity appears in the source. The company owns no parent contract vehicles, GWACs, or standing IDIQs; it bids individual purchase orders as they flow from solicitations. Contract type is uniformly purchase order under firm fixed-price terms, typically under $350,000 simplified acquisition thresholds, with completion dates ranging from urgent (same-day award) to eighteen months out.

The business model is transactional supply—high-volume purchase order fulfillment to a single dominant customer (NAVSEA) with deep geographic and operational integration into Pacific Northwest naval logistics. Recompete risk is absent because there are no master contracts to defend; revenue risk lies in NAVSEA's annual procurement volume and willingness to award to this vendor. The vendor's 24-year registration history, woman-owned certification, and Silverdale location near Puget Sound Naval Shipyard create structural stickiness in the naval supply base, but zero strategic partnerships, parent vehicles, or teaming relationships mean competitive position rests entirely on commodity price and delivery reliability.
