Empire Avionics Corp.

Empire Avionics Corp., a service-disabled veteran-owned small business based in West Harrison, New York, supplies military-grade electrical and electronic components to the Department of Defense as a prime contractor, with 100% of its federal award activity in that role and no subcontract footprint.

Empire Avionics is a for-profit corporation holding SDVOSB and veteran-owned business certifications. The company operates almost entirely within the Defense Logistics Agency ecosystem—99% of its 6,114 awards across all federal sources route to DLA divisions. Customer concentration is extreme: DLA Land and Maritime accounts for 4,103 awards ($111.8 million combined potential value) and DLA Aviation for 1,649 awards ($30.1 million), together representing 95% of the company's $153.4 million in combined potential value. Troop Support divisions contribute a small remainder. Empire Avionics has served 35 distinct federal customer agencies in the source data, but DLA dominates by an overwhelming margin.

The company's capability portfolio is narrowly focused on electrical and electronic components for military equipment maintenance and defense logistics. Its top NAICS categories reflect this concentration: Other Electronic Component Manufacturing (544 awards), Electronic Connector Manufacturing (521), Current-Carrying Wiring Device Manufacturing (338), Relay and Industrial Control Manufacturing (316), and Radio and Television Broadcasting equipment (309). By PSC code, the company leads in Connectors (656 awards), Switches (521), Relays and Solenoids (361), Antennas and Waveguides (306), and Headsets and Microphones (280). Representative work includes a $178.1 million headset-microphone procurement (DLA Land and Maritime, January 2026), a $339,975 fixed attenuator order (DLA Land and Maritime, December 2025), a $121.2 million solid-state relay award (DLA Land and Maritime, January 2026), a $99.4 million headset-microphone procurement (DLA Land and Maritime, December 2025), and numerous smaller purchase orders for rotary switches, electromagnetic relays, circuit breakers, electrical connectors, and insulation sleeving ranging from hundreds to tens of thousands of dollars. All work is performed at the company's West Harrison, Briarcliff Manor facility, with delivery to DLA distribution depots in CONUS and OCONUS locations.

Empire Avionics holds five active Indefinite Delivery Contracts with DLA divisions. Three are single-award IDCs without set-aside: one for electrical contacts with DLA Land and Maritime ($350,000 ceiling, awarded March 2026, completion March 2027); one for general components with DLA Aviation ($350,000 ceiling, awarded January 2026, completion January 2029); and one for Pitot Static Test equipment with DLA Aviation ($350,000 ceiling, awarded December 2025, completion December 2026). One is a Total Small Business set-aside for seal replacement parts with DLA Land and Maritime ($250,000 ceiling, awarded September 2025, completion September 2026). At least one additional $250,000-ceiling IDC with DLA Land and Maritime covers sealing or related components. The top five parent vehicles show 15, 14, 9, 8, and 7 task orders respectively, though the source does not name all IDC vehicles explicitly.

Activity has been flat to slightly growing. Awards per year were 461 in 2022, 476 in 2023, 477 in 2024, 574 in 2025, and 163 through mid-April 2026 (a partial-year figure). The company has 146 awards with ultimate completion dates in the next twenty-four months, carrying combined potential value of $4.1 million—a modest recompete exposure given the baseline volume, though many of those awards are low-dollar purchase orders that will recycle regularly. Empire Avionics has no stated subcontractor relationships and does not appear to hold a position on any government-wide acquisition contracts or multi-agency vehicles; its entire footprint is direct prime awards from DLA divisions issued as purchase orders or delivery orders against standing IDCs. The company's federal footprint began in 2000 and has remained consistently within DLA Land and Maritime and Aviation throughout the source data window.
