Factory Sales Of Texas, Inc.

Factory Sales Of Texas, Inc., doing business as Factory Sales Of Texas Inc., supplies o-rings, gaskets, seals, nonmetallic hoses, and related hardware components to the Defense Logistics Agency as a prime contractor. The vendor is a self-certified small disadvantaged business and veteran-owned Subchapter S corporation headquartered in Houston, Texas, competing across both Total Small Business set-asides and full-and-open procurements, with set-aside work accounting for roughly one-third of recent awards.

Factory Sales Of Texas operates almost exclusively within the defense supply chain, holding 100% of recent awards from the Defense Logistics Agency. The top two customers account for 100% of the portfolio: DLA Land and Maritime (363 awards, $4.1 million combined potential value) and DLA Aviation (20 awards, $103 thousand). The vendor's product portfolio centers on discrete nonmetallic components—o-rings dominate at 173 awards, followed by hose and flexible tubing (117 awards), hose fittings (39 awards), and related fastening hardware. Representative work includes $41 million in o-ring procurement (Total Small Business set-aside, awarded February 2025, 1,151 units), a $81 thousand grip/handle purchase order (October 2025), a $61 thousand nonmetallic hose assembly contract (December 2024), and a $48 thousand clutch assembly order (October 2024). The vendor recently secured four single-award Indefinite Delivery Contracts through September 2026, each valued at $250 thousand: three designated Total Small Business set-asides (September 2025, August 2025, June 2025) and one unrestricted (August 2025), all for o-rings under various National Stock Numbers.

Activity has grown sharply over the past three years—from 8 awards in 2022 to 181 in 2024—though 2025 shows a decline to 142 awards, likely reflecting typical quarterly volatility in DLA purchase-order volume rather than sustained trajectory change. The vendor holds no parent vehicles (GWACs, BPAs, agency-wide IDIQs) and operates exclusively through DLA's automated indefinite delivery contract system, where multiple small purchase orders flow against standing IDC ceilings. All work is performed at the Houston, Texas facility with delivery to DLA depots across continental and outside-continental United States locations. The vendor competes as a pure prime—no subcontract work appears in the source—and does not partner with larger contractors. The portfolio reflects classic defense logistics supply positioning: high-volume, low-dollar-value transactions for standardized, critical-path components that support military equipment readiness. Combined obligated value of $2.5 million across 383 awards represents steady cash flow but no major single contracts or long-term strategic relationships beyond the renewable DLA IDC structure.
