Gtaa LLC

Gtaa LLC, doing business as Airpath Instrument Company, manufactures precision magnetic compasses and navigational instrumentation for military aviation applications, operating as a veteran-owned small business prime contractor (100% of recent awards) on a full-and-open and set-aside basis with the Defense Logistics Agency. Based in Bridgeton, Missouri, with manufacturing operations in Hazelwood, Gtaa LLC is organized as a for-profit Limited Liability Partnership registered as a federal contractor since 2002, competing under NAICS 334511 (Search, Detection, Navigation, Guidance, Aeronautical, and Nautical System and Instrument Manufacturing) and PSC code for navigational instruments.

Gtaa LLC's customer base is heavily concentrated with a single agency. The Defense Logistics Agency Aviation accounts for 240 awards (60% of the recent 400-award portfolio) carrying $13.6 million in combined potential value, followed by the broader Defense Logistics Agency with 39 awards at $4 million combined potential value. The Department of the Air Force, Department of the Army Materiel Command, and Department of the Army represent the remaining customers, together accounting for less than 15% of awards and dollars. This concentration is characteristic — DLA Aviation dominates both volume and dollars, and across all rankings the vendor's activity sits within the DLA ecosystem.

Gtaa LLC holds multiple single-award Indefinite Delivery Contracts with DLA Aviation. Two active IDCs carry individual ceilings of $250,000 each, running through December 2028 and September 2023 respectively, with one designated for total small business set-aside ordering and one unrestricted. Five additional named IDC vehicles (SPE4A615D7812, SPE4A614D5570, SPE4A617D0194, SPE4A614D0380, SPE4A619D5497) collectively carry 69 task orders and approximately $2 million in combined potential value. Recent representative work includes a $224,126.98 total small business set-aside purchase order awarded June 2026 for 238 magnetic compasses to DLA Aviation, a $105,774.12 unrestricted purchase order for 108 compasses awarded July 2022, a $89,332.86 delivery order for compasses awarded August 2021, and a $76,433.76 total small business set-aside purchase order for 72 compass units awarded January 2023. Individual awards range from approximately $627 to $224,127, with delivery to DLA Distribution facilities and Hazelwood serving as the consistent place of performance.

Activity has been variable over the past five years, ranging from three awards in 2026 (year-to-date through February) to twelve awards in 2022 and 2025. The vendor carries material recompete exposure: across the 400-award portfolio spanning from 1980 through February 2026, the majority of recent DLA Aviation task orders are expiring or nearing completion within the active ordering windows of the two principal IDC vehicles, positioning Gtaa LLC to face renewal or competitive recompete on those vehicles in the coming twelve to twenty-four months. Combined potential value of the portfolio stands at $21.2 million, with $17.6 million (83% of potential) currently obligated. The vendor does not hold a position on government-wide vehicles (GWACs, multi-agency BPAs, or GSA Schedule); all work flows through DLA-specific IDCs, making Gtaa LLC accessible to other federal customers only through those agencies' subcontracted relationships with DLA or through standalone small purchase orders. Gtaa LLC does not appear as a subcontractor in the source data and has not received federal grant awards, operating exclusively as a prime manufacturer supplying DLA and subordinate defense components with magnetic compass units and related navigational components.
