Engineered Coil Company

Engineered Coil Company, operating through its DRS Marlo Coil Division and headquartered in High Ridge, Missouri, is a subsidiary of Leonardo SPA, an Italian multinational aerospace and defense firm. The company specializes in manufacturing cooling components, HVAC equipment, and specialized mechanical systems primarily for the U.S. Department of Defense. Registered in SAM.gov since January 2002, Engineered Coil Company maintains active federal contracting status as a for-profit manufacturer of goods classified as a child entity within the Leonardo SPA corporate structure. The company has established itself as a critical supplier of thermal management and mechanical component solutions across multiple military platforms and defense logistics operations.

Engineered Coil Company has secured extensive federal contract awards across numerous defense agencies, primarily through firm fixed-price purchase orders totaling millions of dollars in cumulative contract value. The company supplies a diverse range of specialized components including cooling coils, air cooler units, fan coil assemblies, heating and ventilation equipment, fan assemblies, thermostatic switches, gaskets, solenoid valves, pressure switches, refrigeration compressors, and related mechanical parts. Primary funding agencies include the Defense Logistics Agency across its multiple divisions (Troop Support, Land and Maritime, Aviation, and Construction and Equipment), Naval Sea Systems Command, U.S. Coast Guard, Naval Supply Systems Command, and Military Sealift Command. The company has competed successfully in unrestricted federal procurements without set-aside designations, demonstrating its established competitive position within the defense industrial base. Engineered Coil Company maintains significant subcontract relationships with major defense primes including Huntington Ingalls Incorporated, General Dynamics Information Technology, Northrop Grumman Systems Corporation, VT Milcom Inc., Prism Maritime LLC, and Metro Machine Corp., supporting construction and maintenance on naval vessels including aircraft carriers (CVN 65, 75, 78, 79, 81), destroyers (DDG 68, 133, 143, 145, 146, 147, 149), amphibious assault ships (LHA 6, 8, 9), amphibious transport docks (LPD 17, 19, 20, 30), and various other naval platforms. Contract values for individual purchase orders have ranged from under $500 to over $336,000, with numerous awards exceeding $100,000 for large-scale component procurements supporting fleet maintenance and operational readiness.

Engineered Coil Company holds two active Indefinite Delivery Contracts awarded by major Department of Defense entities. The primary IDV, valued at $7,188,726 and awarded by Naval Sea Systems Command on September 17, 2024, extends through September 16, 2029, and covers the provision of up to 49 1.5-ton modular refrigeration systems and 2 spare parts kits specifically designated for backfits on U.S. Navy aircraft carriers CVN 75, 78, and 79. This single-award, non-set-aside contract reflects the strategic importance of Engineered Coil Company's refrigeration expertise to naval carrier operations, with an initial task order valued at $3,962,899.11 to be completed within 15 months at the vendor's High Ridge, Missouri facility. The second IDV, valued at $250,000 and awarded by the Defense Logistics Agency Aviation division on May 9, 2024, extends through May 8, 2029, and provides a vehicle for procuring housing bearing units and related heating, ventilation, and air conditioning components to support Department of Defense aviation platforms and equipment. This single-award contract has already generated task order activity, with a June 2024 delivery order for housing bearing units demonstrating operational utilization of the vehicle. Together, these indefinite delivery contracts, totaling approximately $7.4 million, establish Engineered Coil Company as a long-term strategic supplier of critical thermal management and mechanical components to the U.S. Navy and broader defense logistics enterprise through 2029.
