Federal Industries, Inc.

Federal Industries, Inc., a Subchapter S Corporation and small business manufacturer headquartered in El Segundo, California, supplies specialized mechanical, hydraulic, and electronic components to the Defense Logistics Agency as a prime contractor (100% of recent awards) with no subcontractor footprint. The vendor competes predominantly full-and-open with no set-aside designation applied to most recent work, though approximately one-quarter of its awards carry Total Small Business or Competitive Small Business set-asides.

Federal Industries' federal footprint concentrates almost entirely on DLA procurement. The top five customer entities account for 93% of awards by count and 99% of potential value by dollars, with Defense Logistics Agency Aviation anchoring the portfolio at 171 awards and $22.9 million combined potential value, followed by Defense Logistics Agency Troop Support Hardware (46 awards, $5.1 million), Defense Logistics Agency Land and Maritime (154 awards, $4.7 million), and the broader DLA unallocated category (70 awards, $38 thousand). The vendor maintains modest exposure to the Air Force Sustainment Center ($1.2 million across five awards) and Ogden Air Logistics Complex ($954 thousand). All other federal agencies represent sub-1% participation.

The vendor's capability portfolio centers on manufactured components for military aviation, land, maritime, and troop support logistics. Top NAICS concentration includes Other Aircraft Parts and Auxiliary Equipment Manufacturing (156 awards), Hardware Manufacturing (72 awards), Industrial Valve Manufacturing (48 awards), and Fabricated Pipe and Pipe Fitting Manufacturing (39 awards). PSC concentration aligns with the NAICS profile: Aircraft Hydraulic, Vacuum, and De-Icing System Components (59 awards), Valves Powered (59 awards), Hardware Commercial (52 awards), Hose Pipe Tube Lubrication and Railing Fittings (47 awards), and Relays and Solenoids (36 awards). Representative recent prime awards include a $2.5 million definitive contract with DLA Aviation for cylinder assemblies (October 2025), a $584.7 thousand purchase order for packing nuts (August 2025), a $417 thousand purchase order for linear actuator heads under Total Small Business set-aside (August 2025), and a $335.9 thousand purchase order for solenoid valves (May 2025). Older work includes a $1.26 million definitive contract for cylinder assemblies (November 2023), an $815.7 thousand definitive contract for cylinder assemblies (February 2024), and a $347.3 thousand purchase order for KC-135 directional sleeves from the Air Force Sustainment Center (July 2024).

Federal Industries holds multiple single-award indefinite delivery contracts with DLA Land and Maritime, each valued at $250,000, covering product categories including pipe hangers (NSN 4610089252), solenoids (NSN 4610085131), and covers/access plates (NSN 4610084944). Five top parent vehicles account for limited task-order volume: Indefinite Delivery Contract SPM7M212D5004 (5 task orders, $132 thousand), SPE7M120D61PC (4 task orders, $40 thousand), SPE7L322D61KR (3 task orders, $36 thousand), SPE7L122D60VG (3 task orders, $1 thousand), and SP093505D5F10 (2 task orders). The vendor does not sit on government-wide vehicles (GWACs, Alliant, OASIS+, SEWP) and maintains no named subcontracting relationships in the source.

Activity has remained episodic and modest in scale. The 498 total awards span from October 1996 to April 2026, with annual volume of 7–32 awards per year across the last five years. Combined potential value stands at $35.1 million with $34 million obligated (97% execution), and 24 awards (combined potential value $4.8 million) face ultimate completion inside the next twenty-four months and therefore present recompete exposure. The vendor's footprint is purely DLA-driven with no meaningful federal customer diversification; all named aerospace and defense subcontracting relationships mentioned in award summaries (Lockheed Martin, BAE Systems, Boeing) appear in background context rather than in active sub-awards, and the source confirms zero subcontract work. Federal Industries' business model is manufacturing-to-order, full-and-open competitive purchase orders from a single dominant customer, with minimal IDC leverage and no presence on larger federal vehicles or teaming arrangements.
