Granzow, Inc.

Granzow, Inc., a foreign-owned, for-profit manufacturer of industrial components headquartered in Mint Hill, North Carolina, supplies Defense Logistics Agency (DLA) components with switches, gaskets, protective covers, and related industrial parts as a prime contractor (100% of recent awards) competing predominantly in full-and-open procurements without set-aside designations, though the company holds multiple Total Small Business indefinite delivery contracts with DLA.

Granzow's federal customer base is highly concentrated in DLA. The top two funding agencies—DLA Land and Maritime and DLA Aviation—account for 98% of recent awards by count and 100% of combined potential value. DLA Land and Maritime leads by order volume with 198 awards valued at $6.3 million combined potential value, while DLA Aviation trails slightly in award count at 116 orders but anchors the highest dollar concentration at $7.3 million combined potential value. This split reflects Granzow's dual role: Land and Maritime issues more frequent small delivery orders for gaskets, rotary switches, electronic switches, and protective covers; Aviation concentrates larger orders for liquid level switches, the company's highest-volume commodity. Minor customer exposure includes DLA Troop Support Hardware, the Department of the Navy Naval Sea Systems Command, and United States Fleet Forces Command, collectively representing less than 2% of total value.

Granzow's capability footprint centers on manufacturing and supplying industrial switches—liquid level, rotary, electronic, and stepping types—gaskets, protective covers, dust and moisture boots, and related components to support military equipment maintenance across DLA's global supply chain. Representative work includes a $57,060.50 delivery order from DLA Aviation for liquid level switches awarded April 20, 2025; a $35,115.89 order from DLA Land and Maritime for stepping switches issued March 23, 2022; and a $66,722.67 delivery order for liquid level switches from DLA Aviation awarded January 13, 2023. Individual task orders typically range from sub-$100 gasket orders to $66,722.67 for high-volume switch procurements. The company manufactures all work at its Mint Hill, North Carolina facility and maintains delivery schedules of 90 to 150 days depending on order complexity. All performance occurs at the contractor's Mint Hill location; no subordinate or overseas manufacturing is documented in the source material.

Granzow holds 18 active or recently completed indefinite delivery contracts with DLA, with individual ceilings ranging from $250,000 to $755,549.56 and collective ceiling values exceeding $4.5 million. The largest vehicle is Indefinite Delivery Contract 4610105801 with DLA Aviation (ceiling $755,549.56, completion date September 25, 2028), which procures liquid level switches, rotary switches, electronic switches, stepping switches, gaskets, and protective covers—the breadth of Granzow's product portfolio. Other significant vehicles include a $350,035.04 DLA Aviation IDC for liquid level switches (completion August 29, 2027) and multiple $250,000 single-award DLA Land and Maritime contracts for rotary switches, electronic switches, liquid level switches, stepping switches, and gaskets. Five of Granzow's IDVs carry Total Small Business set-asides despite the company's full-and-open posture on most task orders. The IDV structure enables DLA to issue task orders on an as-needed basis; delivery orders under these vehicles have ranged from $40 to $66,722.67 with typical completion windows of 90 to 150 days.

Activity has declined sharply year over year: 46 awards in 2022 down to 2 awards in 2026 (year-to-date through April 7, 2026), with 2024 recording 30 orders and 2025 declining to 26. This downward trajectory reflects either saturation of Granzow's IDC ceilings or competitive displacement. No recompete cliff window is marked in the source, but the oldest dated award in the portfolio is from September 17, 2001—indicating sustained DLA relationships spanning over two decades—and five IDVs have completion dates between now and December 2026, representing combined ceiling exposure of approximately $1.1 million. Granzow has no documented subcontractor footprint and receives no sub-award work; the company operates entirely as a prime supplier to DLA components.

The vendor's award concentration by commodity reflects its manufacturing specialization: 166 awards fall under PSC code for switches, 127 under liquid and gas flow and mechanical motion measuring instruments, and 37 under packing and gasket materials. NAICS coding clusters in Other Measuring and Controlling Device Manufacturing (115 awards), Nonferrous Forging (49 awards), Switchgear and Switchboard Apparatus Manufacturing (36 awards), and Gasket, Packing, and Sealing Device Manufacturing (34 awards). SAM registration traces to January 2002, establishing Granzow as a continuous federal supplier for over two decades and indicating established manufacturing infrastructure and compliance posture within DLA's supply chain ecosystem.
