About the company

Essex Industries, Inc. is a St. Louis, Missouri-based manufacturer of aerospace and defense components registered with the federal government since June 2012. The company specializes in the production of pressure anti-valves and related industrial components that support critical aircraft and vehicle systems. As a for-profit manufacturer, Essex Industries has established itself as a significant supplier to the Defense Logistics Agency (DLA) Aviation, serving as a prime contractor on multiple federal contract vehicles with a demonstrated track record of reliable product delivery and performance.

Essex Industries has provided pressure anti-valves to DLA Aviation through a diverse portfolio of federal contract awards spanning from 2021 through 2025. The company has received delivery orders and purchase orders with individual ceiling values ranging from $9,224 to $105,980, with a cumulative award value exceeding $1.2 million across approximately fifteen distinct contract actions. These awards have been issued primarily by DLA Aviation, with one purchase order awarded by DLA Land and Maritime for push switches valued at $9,224. The majority of Essex Industries' federal contracts are structured as firm fixed-price delivery orders and purchase orders against existing indefinite delivery contracts, with performance conducted entirely at the company's St. Louis manufacturing facility and no major subcontractors identified. Most awards have been issued without set-aside designations; however, the company has received several total small business set-aside contracts, including a $105,980 purchase order in November 2021 and a definitive contract valued at $274,762 awarded in August 2021. This set-aside activity reflects Essex Industries' classification as a small business concern, which has allowed the company to compete for and secure government contracts designated exclusively for eligible small business entities.

Essex Industries holds two active Indefinite Delivery Contracts (IDCs) with DLA Aviation, both awarded in 2021 and expiring in 2026. The first IDC, awarded October 20, 2021, carries a total small business set-aside designation with a ceiling value of $697,744 and an expiration date of October 19, 2026. The second IDC, awarded September 7, 2021, has a ceiling value of $749,793 and an expiration date of September 6, 2026, with no set-aside designation applied. Both contracts authorize DLA Aviation to issue delivery orders for pressure anti-valves identified by specific National Stock Numbers to support Department of Defense aviation maintenance and logistics operations. Together, these two IDCs represent a combined ceiling value exceeding $1.4 million and provide the contractual framework under which the majority of Essex Industries' recent delivery orders have been placed. The recurring issuance of delivery orders against these IDCs—with multiple orders issued in 2021, 2022, 2023, 2024, and 2025—demonstrates DLA Aviation's sustained reliance on Essex Industries' manufacturing capabilities and the company's established role as a critical supplier for specialized aerospace and defense components essential to federal aviation operations.
