H & R Parts Co Inc.

H & R Parts Co Inc., a small business aerospace component manufacturer based in Wichita, Kansas, delivers aircraft structural parts and related aerospace components to the Defense Logistics Agency as a prime contractor on a total small business set-aside posture, with 100% of recent awards concentrated in prime contracts and no subcontractor footprint.

H & R Parts operates as a for-profit Subchapter S Corporation registered in the System for Award Management since March 2002. The company's capability portfolio centers on precision-engineered aerospace structural components for military aircraft maintenance and operational readiness: aircraft skins, ribs, stiffeners, brackets, plates, seals, fairings, frames, heat shields, stringers, nose cover assemblies, window frames, and access doors. Recent representative work includes a $21,564.28 delivery order from DLA Aviation in April 2026 for aircraft ribs and stiffeners under a total small business set-aside; a $81,175.51 delivery order in January 2026 for a nose cover assembly; a $49,155.70 purchase order in December 2025 for aircraft access doors; and a $107,621.80 purchase order in August 2025 for boom nozzle guards. The company specializes in supporting legacy military aviation platforms, particularly the B-52 Stratofortress.

Customer concentration is extreme and deliberately designed. The Defense Logistics Agency Aviation accounts for 5,995 awards (86% of all recent awards) with $156.4 million combined potential value, effectively 92% of the company's total federal pipeline. The broader Defense Logistics Agency (including Troop Support and other components) adds another 324 awards and $4.2 million. The Department of the Air Force and its commands represent the remainder of the active customer set. This concentration reflects H & R Parts' role as a dedicated supplier to DLA Aviation's aerospace component logistics and replenishment mission rather than diversified federal exposure.

H & R Parts holds at least seventeen active indefinite-delivery contracts with DLA Aviation, all single-award vehicles with ceiling values ranging from $349,999.99 to $2,499,999.99 and performance periods extending through 2026 to 2031. Recent IDC awards include a $2.5 million contract issued April 13, 2026, for aircraft skin components; multiple $350,000 vehicles awarded in February and March 2026 for general aerospace structural components; and earlier vehicles with $250,000 ceilings. Individual delivery orders and purchase orders issued under these IDVs typically range from several hundred dollars for discrete components to over $150,000 for larger assemblies such as nose cover assemblies and window frame systems. The top parent vehicles—SPE4A217D0028, SPE4A722D0226, F3460102G0003, SPE4A219D0001, and F3460198G0012—carry 442 combined task orders but represent legacy contract numbers from prior fiscal years; the current active vehicle portfolio consists of the seventeen single-award IDCs named in the source.

Activity has declined over the past five years: 555 awards in 2022, declining to 69 awards through April 2026 year-to-date. This trajectory suggests either contract consolidation into larger IDV vehicles, inventory sufficiency, or reduced DoD aviation maintenance demand. Within the next twenty-four months, 108 awards carrying $1.6 million combined potential value are due for completion, representing moderate recompete exposure concentrated within DLA Aviation's existing vehicle structure.

Set-aside posture is uniform across the prime footprint: the vast majority of H & R Parts' contracts carry total small business set-aside designations, reflecting the company's status as a qualified small business supplier and the government's policy of reserving a portion of DLA Aviation's aerospace component procurement for small business participation. A smaller subset of full-and-open awards—particularly purchase orders and larger delivery orders—demonstrates the company's competitive standing outside set-asides, though small business set-asides remain the dominant award vehicle.

H & R Parts carries no subcontractor relationships in the source data; all 6,919 awards are prime contracts issued directly by federal agencies. The company's business model centers on direct fulfillment of DLA Aviation's component requirements rather than prime-to-sub teaming.
