About the company
H.C. Contracting, Inc. Ferrara Manufacturing Division, doing business as Ferrara Manufacturing, manufactures military uniforms, outerwear, and apparel for the Defense Logistics Agency as a prime contractor on a women-owned small business footprint, competing predominantly under Total Small Business set-asides and full-and-open procurements. The company is headquartered in Queens, New York with manufacturing operations in Astoria, New York, and holds SBA certifications as a Women-Owned Small Business and self-certified Small Disadvantaged Business. Ferrara Manufacturing specializes in cut-and-sew apparel production, with a portfolio dominated by men's and women's military coats, dress uniforms, and related military textiles under NAICS 315210 and PSC codes for men's and women's outerwear.
Ferrara Manufacturing operates exclusively as a prime contractor on defense clothing and textile contracts. The vendor's entire customer base (100% of awards) routes through the Defense Logistics Agency Troop Support Clothing and Textiles division. Of 260 total awards spanning March 2021 to April 2026, 258 awards worth $108.3 million in combined potential value are placed through DLA Clothing and Textiles, one $5.6 million award through DLA Troop Support Hardware, and one $34 thousand award through the Defense Contract Management Agency. Activity has grown sharply—43 awards in 2022 to 102 in 2025—driven by recurring delivery orders against three primary indefinite delivery contracts and a newer single-award IDIQ awarded in January 2026.
Ferrara Manufacturing holds four active parent IDIQs with DLA Troop Support Clothing and Textiles. The largest, indefinite delivery contract SPE1C121D1480 (a $23.9 million Total Small Business set-aside for Air Force and Marine Corps coats awarded June 2021, extended through June 2026), generates 184 task orders worth $24.6 million in combined potential value. Indefinite delivery contract SPE1C122D1514, a $5.785 million single-award vehicle awarded November 2021 for military uniforms and outerwear, has issued 54 delivery orders worth $4.9 million combined. Indefinite delivery contract SPE1C126D0016 (a newly awarded $13.4 million Total Small Business set-aside effective January 2026 for Coast Guard and Navy dress coats) carries 8 task orders worth $2.1 million combined. Indefinite delivery contract SPE1C121D1460, a $20.5 million COVID-19 response vehicle for face mask production and delivery, generated 6 task orders worth $18.2 million combined. Recent representative delivery orders include a $1.636 million women's coats order (March 2023), a $1.085 million men's coats order (June 2024), an $885.7 thousand men's coats order (May 2025), and a $519.5 thousand women's coats order (September 2025). Ferrara Manufacturing competes across a mix of Total Small Business set-aside and unrestricted full-and-open procurements; set-aside designations appear on roughly 40% of the recent delivery order and purchase order population, with the remainder competed without set-asides.
Eight awards face ultimate completion dates within the next twenty-four months, carrying combined potential value of $4.7 million—modest recompete exposure relative to the vendor's $113.9 million combined potential value across the full portfolio. The vendor's contract awards are dominated by men's and women's military coats (253 combined awards), with smaller volumes of dress uniforms, skirts, and special-purpose clothing items. Place of performance is consistently Astoria, New York, with delivery orders typically firm fixed-price and completion windows ranging from ninety to one hundred twenty days. The company has delivered over 33 million face masks valued at approximately $20.5 million to DLA during the COVID-19 pandemic, demonstrating capability beyond routine apparel manufacturing. Ferrara Manufacturing operates as a dedicated military apparel supplier with no identified subcontract footprint or teaming relationships in the award history; all work is performed directly by the vendor at its Queens-based facility.
