About the company

Gem Manufacturing LLC, a self-certified small disadvantaged business headquartered in Waterbury, Connecticut, manufactures precision metal components and electronic timing fuzes for ordnance systems, operating primarily as a subcontractor (45% of recent awards) to defense primes. The company competes across both prime (55% of awards) and subcontract work, with defense mission-critical manufacturing concentrated in metal stamping and ammunition-related components under NAICS codes aligned with metal stamping, ammunition manufacturing, and nonferrous foundries.

Gem's customer base spans the Department of the Army Acquisition Support Center PEO Ammunition (5 awards), the Department of the Navy Naval Sea Systems Command (4 awards, $5 thousand combined potential value), and the Department of the Air Force Air Mobility Command (1 award, $21 thousand combined potential value). The combined potential value across all eleven awards is $26 thousand, but the vendor has obligated $1.3 million against those awards — a ratio indicating that invoiced work substantially exceeds the stated potential-value ceiling, consistent with long-running or matured contracts. Gem places task orders under the indefinite delivery contract W519TC24D0003 (2 task orders). Recent sub-award activity includes manufacturing of M762A1/M767A1 electronic timing fuzes, negative contacts, protective shields, and associated components for fuzing systems, with three sub-awards dated February 2026 and two administrative change orders to L3Harris Fuzing and Ordnance Systems dated August 2024.

Activity has been episodic but recently active. The vendor recorded one award in 2008, one in 2009, one in 2014, two in 2024, and three in 2026. This sparse but persistent footprint suggests specialized component supply for niche ordnance applications rather than high-volume commercial manufacturing. The $26 thousand combined potential value across all current awards substantially understates the vendor's revenue scale given the $1.3 million obligated, indicating long-standing contract relationships with slow-moving or maintenance-level delivery obligations.
