Epc, Inc.

EPC Inc., a Subchapter S Corporation small business manufacturer based in Philadelphia, Pennsylvania, supplies custom injection-molded precision-engineered defense components to the Defense Logistics Agency as a prime contractor (100% of recent awards), competing predominantly in full-and-open procurements without set-aside designation on most work, though select awards carry Total Small Business set-asides.

EPC Inc. manufactures a narrow, high-volume portfolio of specialized defense hardware: objective rings and locks, cable splice retention caps, protective dust caps, blasting cap boxes, and medical instrument carrying cases for military and aviation logistics. Recent representative work includes a $10,560.96 firm fixed-price delivery order from DLA Aviation for objective rings (July 2025), a $149,760 purchase order from the Joint Munitions Command for plastic liners (September 2024), a $82,560 purchase order from DLA Troop Support Medical for 12,000 medical instrument cases (March 2025), and a $52,872 purchase order from DLA Troop Support Medical for 400 medical instrument cases under a Total Small Business set-aside (July 2025). The company holds two active single-award Indefinite Delivery Contracts with DLA Aviation: one for blasting cap boxes valued at $250,000 through June 2030 (awarded June 2025, no set-aside) and one for objective rings and locks valued at $250,000 through July 2029 (awarded July 2024, Total Small Business set-aside).

Customer concentration is heavily skewed toward DLA. The top five funding agencies account for 78% of all awards, dominated by DLA Aviation (75 awards, $1.5 million combined potential value) and DLA Troop Support Medical (57 awards, $2.3 million combined potential value), with DLA Troop Support Hardware, DLA Land and Maritime, and other DLA components rounding out the active set. By potential value, the ranking shifts slightly — DLA Troop Support Medical leads with $2.3 million across 57 awards, followed by DLA Aviation with $1.5 million across 75 awards — reflecting that medical instrument cases command higher unit prices than aviation hardware. The combined dollar concentration suggests DLA accounts for well over 80% of total potential value across the portfolio.

EPC Inc. executes work exclusively under single-award Indefinite Delivery Contracts with DLA divisions. The top parent vehicles are IDC SPE4A620D5597 (19 task orders, $28 thousand combined potential value), IDC SPE4A619D5720 (14 task orders, $45 thousand combined potential value), IDC SPM45004D0877 (7 task orders, $26 thousand combined potential value), and IDC SPE4A724D5351 (4 task orders, $42 thousand combined potential value). These contracts are the sole vehicles through which EPC Inc. accesses federal work — the company does not compete on GWACs, agency-wide IDIQs, GSA Schedules, or other broader government vehicles.

Activity has remained flat to modestly declining over the past five years. The vendor received 9 awards in 2022, peaked at 20 awards in both 2023 and 2024, then dropped to 18 awards in 2025 and 3 awards through early 2026. The combined potential value of all 303 awards in the source data totals $6.1 million, though obligated dollars reached $6.5 million (107% of potential value), suggesting some orders exceeded their original ceilings. Recent award velocity is low — only 3 awards have closed in the first quarter of 2026 — and the source does not identify awards with ultimate completion dates beyond the next twenty-four months, making recompete visibility limited. The vendor operates as a sole prime with no subcontractor footprint; 100% of its awards are prime contracts or IDVs.

Hardware manufacturing dominates the NAICS profile (99 awards), followed by surgical and medical instrument manufacturing (38 awards) and miscellaneous electrical equipment and component manufacturing (32 awards). Hardware and commercial supplies lead by PSC (87 awards), with medical replenishment kits and sets (77 awards) and bushings, rings, and spacers (37 awards) representing the remainder of the core capability mix. EPC Inc. has been registered in SAM.gov since 2001 and maintains a long-standing exclusive supply relationship with DLA, issuing task orders under standing Indefinite Delivery Contracts rather than competing in new solicitations. The company's federal footprint is narrow, deep, and stable — a dedicated supplier to a single customer across a small set of specialized manufactured goods, with minimal exposure to broader federal markets or competitive procurement vehicles.
