Farin Industries Inc.

Farin Industries Inc. is a for-profit manufacturer of automotive components located in Austinburg, Ohio, registered in the System for Award Management (SAM) since 2004. The company specializes in producing precision automotive parts, with a primary focus on manufacturing brake shoes for military vehicle fleet maintenance. As a small business, Farin Industries has established itself as a reliable supplier to the U.S. Department of Defense, particularly the Defense Logistics Agency (DLA) Land and Maritime.

The company has consistently secured federal contract awards for brake shoes, with most contracts being purchase orders or delivery orders. These contracts have predominantly been awarded by the DLA Land and Maritime, typically ranging in value from $18,000 to $378,948. Many of the earlier contracts were set aside for total small businesses, demonstrating Farin Industries' commitment to supporting small business participation in federal procurement. The brake shoes procured under these contracts are associated with specific National Stock Numbers (NSNs), primarily NSN 3040015765056, and are designed to meet precise military specifications. In addition to brake shoes, the company has also fulfilled at least one contract for clutch assemblies, expanding its product range beyond brake components.

Farin Industries has secured two Indefinite Delivery Contracts (IDCs) with the DLA Land and Maritime, each valued at $250,000 with a one-year base period. These IDCs provide a structured framework for continued brake shoe procurement, allowing for an estimated 4-9 orders per year. The IDCs support military logistics and vehicle readiness initiatives by enabling the delivery of brake shoes to both domestic and international DLA depots and distribution centers. The most recent IDC, awarded in January 2025, has an ultimate completion date of January 14, 2026, and was solicited to procure 924 brake shoes with a guaranteed minimum quantity of 138 units. These contracts represent a strategic expansion of Farin Industries' federal contracting capabilities and demonstrate the company's ongoing commitment to supporting military vehicle maintenance and readiness.
