Fuel Systems Inc.

Fuel Systems Inc., a Wisconsin-based small-business subchapter S corporation, manufactures specialized fuel and fluid management components, mechanical hardware, and engine instrumentation for the Department of Defense as a prime contractor across 2,337 recent federal awards totaling $67 million in potential value. The company competes predominantly on full-and-open contracts with no set-asides, though a material share of its IDC vehicles carry total small business set-aside designations.

Fuel Systems Inc. delivers pressure transmitters, liquid quantity indicators, temperature indicators, speedometers, indicator lights, cable assemblies, interconnecting boxes, voltmeters, filter elements, valve assemblies, fan assemblies, heat shields, and related mechanical components. Representative work includes a $1.89 billion interconnecting box IDC with DLA Land and Maritime (single-award, June 2024 through June 2029, with 17 delivery orders totaling roughly $1.1 million executed between August 2024 and March 2026); a $1.9 million pressure transmitter total small business IDC with DLA Aviation (May 2024 through September 2025, with nine delivery orders issued); a $760,972 liquid quantity indicator total small business IDC with DLA Aviation (March 2024 through March 2029, with four delivery orders totaling $110,742 executed); and a $203,981 vehicular heater purchase order set aside for total small business issued by DLA Land and Maritime in December 2024 for delivery by September 2025.

Customer concentration is heavily weighted to DLA operations. DLA Aviation accounts for 773 awards and $27.5 million in combined potential value; DLA Land and Maritime accounts for 917 awards and $15.5 million. Together, these two DLA divisions cover 92% of awards by count and 87% of combined potential value. The Department of the Army, Army Materiel Command Detroit Arsenal, and smaller DLA branches (Troop Support Hardware, Troop Support Construction and Equipment, and general DLA) round out the active customer set. DLA Aviation dominates the dollar ranking despite trailing Land and Maritime in volume, reflecting larger individual order values for pressure transmitters and indicator lights.

Fuel Systems Inc. holds a deep portfolio of single-award IDCs spanning engine fuel system components, liquid and gas flow measurement instruments, pressure and temperature sensors, engine cooling components, and aircraft parts. The top five parent IDC vehicles by task-order count are SPE4A617D6323 (25 orders, $121 thousand), SPE4A619D5141 (19 orders, $247 thousand), SPE4A714D5391 (18 orders, $101 thousand), SPE7LX24D5037 (18 orders, $1.4 million), and SPE4A616D5560 (17 orders, $16 thousand). Individual delivery orders and purchase orders against these vehicles and other IDCs range from hundreds of dollars for fasteners and hardware to six-figure awards for indicator lights, interconnecting boxes, and pressure transmitters.

Activity has remained stable to declining in recent years—130 awards in 2022, dipping to 89 in 2025 and 27 year-to-date in 2026 through mid-June. Ten awards with combined potential value of $266 thousand face ultimate completion within the next twenty-four months, creating recompete exposure in the near term. The vendor operates entirely as prime on all recent awards with no subcontracting; all work is performed at its Brookfield, Wisconsin manufacturing facility. NAICS concentration falls across Other Engine Equipment Manufacturing (313 awards), Other Measuring and Controlling Device Manufacturing (311 awards), and Bolt, Nut, Screw, Rivet, and Washer Manufacturing (107 awards), with PSC codes anchored in engine fuel system components, liquid and gas flow instruments, and pressure and temperature measurement devices.
