Harris Welding And Machine Company is a for-profit manufacturing firm located in Ashland, Ohio, specializing in producing military ground support equipment. Registered in SAM.gov since December 2014, the company operates as a Subchapter S Corporation and is classified as a manufacturer of goods. Harris Welding primarily serves the Defense Logistics Agency (DLA) Land and Maritime by manufacturing critical logistics and vehicle maintenance components for the U.S. military, including wheel chocks, board ground jacks, protective cones, structural frame sections, and spare tire retainers.

The company has consistently been awarded federal contracts, primarily from the DLA Land and Maritime, for various ground support equipment. These contracts have ranged in value from $4,400 to $147,250, with both set-aside and non-set-aside designations. Some contracts were specifically designated as Total Small Business set-asides, while others were awarded without specific set-aside restrictions. The goods produced include wheel chocks (NSN 2540014995553), board ground jacks, protective cones, structural frame sections, and spare tire retainers. These items are critical for military vehicle maintenance and logistics operations, supporting various branches including the Army, Navy, Air Force, Marine Corps, and Coast Guard.

Harris Welding And Machine Company holds two active Indefinite Delivery Contracts (IDCs) with the DLA Land and Maritime. The first IDC, awarded in July 2023, has a $250,000 ceiling and focuses on protective cones, with a one-year base period expiring in July 2024. The second IDC, awarded in February 2021, also has a $250,000 ceiling and concentrates on board ground jacks, with a one-year term. Under these IDCs, the company has received multiple delivery orders for various ground support equipment. Both IDCs were solicited as Total Small Business set-asides, enabling the DLA to efficiently procure critical logistics supplies from a qualified small business contractor. The IDCs demonstrate the company's strategic importance in supporting military logistics and vehicle maintenance supply chains.
