Erin Rope Corp

Erin Rope Corp is a veteran-owned small business manufacturer located in Blue Island, Illinois, that has maintained continuous registration with the System for Award Management (SAM.gov) since October 2001. The company specializes in manufacturing and supplying fibrous rope and related construction materials to federal government agencies, with a primary focus on supporting the Department of Defense through the Defense Logistics Agency (DLA). As a for-profit corporation, Erin Rope Corp has established itself as a reliable and dependable supplier of standardized rope products meeting precise military specifications, serving military construction projects, equipment repairs, and maintenance activities across federal government operations.

Erin Rope Corp's federal contract portfolio consists exclusively of firm fixed-price purchase orders awarded by the Defense Logistics Agency (DLA) Troop Support Construction and Equipment division, with one notable exception of a contract awarded by the Naval Sea Systems Command (NAVSEA). The company has received over 60 federal contract awards since 2021, with contract values typically ranging from approximately $411 to $119,526, and individual awards most commonly valued between $1,000 and $87,000. All contracts are for the supply of fibrous rope products identified by various National Stock Numbers (NSNs), including specialized products such as cordage materials. A significant portion of Erin Rope Corp's awards—approximately 40 percent—are designated as total small business set-asides, reflecting the government's commitment to supporting veteran-owned small enterprises in federal procurement. The remaining awards are issued without set-aside designations, allowing the company to compete openly in the broader federal marketplace. Performance periods for these contracts typically range from three to eight months, with completion dates generally extending no more than 160 to 164 days from award dates. The company performs all work at its Blue Island, Illinois facility, and has maintained consistent contracting activity with the federal government, demonstrating sustained capability to meet DLA procurement requirements for standardized construction and equipment support materials essential to military operations and logistics.
