About Frequency Electronics Inc.

Frequency Electronics Inc., a Uniondale, New York-based manufacturer of precision time and frequency instrumentation, operates as a prime contractor (98% of recent awards) on defense and federal R&D programs with no SBA set-aside footprint. The company competes full-and-open across its portfolio, competing alongside large defense primes on military timing, oscillator, and advanced clock systems. Frequency Electronics is a for-profit corporation holding three manufacturing subsidiaries: Fei-Elcom Tech, Inc., Fei-Zyfer, Inc., and FEI Government Systems Inc.

Frequency Electronics' capability portfolio centers on precision atomic clocks, optically-pumped rubidium frequency standards, crystal oscillators, guidance and navigation instruments, and specialized electronic components for defense communications and military systems. Recent representative work includes a $20.3 million cost-plus-fixed-fee contract from the Office of Naval Research (awarded January 2022, completion September 2026) to develop a compact mercury ion clock for next-generation DoD atomic timekeeping; a $17.75 million cost-plus-fixed-fee ONR contract (awarded September 2021, completion May 2024) for a pulsed optically-pumped rubidium atomic frequency standard supporting Navy minesweeping programs; and a $314 thousand Small Business set-aside Phase I SBIR from the Department of the Army (awarded April 2026, completion April 2027) addressing photonic integrated NV center diamond vector magnetometers. Frequency Electronics also holds a seat on the Scalable Homeland Innovative Enterprise Layered Defense (SHIELD) multiple-award IDIQ issued by the Missile Defense Agency on December 29, 2025, with a multi-billion-dollar ceiling and performance through December 2035; an initial delivery order valued at $500 was issued in December 2025.

Customer concentration is heavily naval and Air Force weighted. The Department of the Navy accounts for 143 awards (35% of all awards in the source), and the Department of the Air Force for 65 awards (16%). By dollar potential value, the Office of Naval Research dominates with three awards carrying $38 million combined potential value, followed by the Air Force Materiel Command Research Laboratory with two awards worth $37.2 million combined. The Department of the Army, with 52 awards, contributes only $314 thousand in combined potential value—a signal of high-volume, low-dollar component orders alongside larger development contracts. Frequency Electronics maintains five active government vehicles and basic ordering agreements; the two largest IDIQs (N0001484C2173 and N0003983C0346) each carry seven task orders.

Award activity shows moderate recent volume—five awards in 2025, one in 2026—against a deep historical footprint spanning to 1980. Two awards (combined potential value $20.6 million) face ultimate completion inside the next twenty-four months. In its subcontractor role, Frequency Electronics supplies oscillator, crystal, and navigation instrument components to Lockheed Martin, Boeing, and Raytheon on classified defense system work including AEGIS fire control, next-generation overhead persistent infrared, and NGJ-MB electronic warfare platforms. The subcontract footprint—seven awards representing 2% of the total—reflects Frequency Electronics' position as a specialized component and subsystem vendor embedded in major defense primes' supply chains rather than a primary systems integrator.
