Henway, Inc.

Henway, Inc., a for-profit, veteran-owned small business manufacturer based in Tehachapi, California, specializes in the production of precision-engineered aviation hardware components, particularly bolts, screws, fasteners, and related standardized parts for military applications. Operating through its Anatase Products Division and doing business as Henway Products, the company has established itself as a critical supplier to the U.S. Department of Defense through extensive contracting relationships with the Defense Logistics Agency (DLA) Aviation and DLA Troop Support. Henway's SAM.gov registration has been active since April 28, 2003, with current registration valid through December 22, 2026, and the company maintains its facility in Tehachapi to serve federal government procurement needs.

Henway, Inc. has received numerous federal contract awards from the Defense Logistics Agency Aviation spanning from 2021 through August 2025, with the vast majority of awards being firm fixed-price purchase orders and delivery orders for aviation hardware components. The company has supplied an extensive range of bolt types including shear bolts, machine bolts, internal wrench bolts, eye bolts, shoulder bolts, clevis bolts, hook bolts, close tolerance bolts, and U-bolts, along with various screws such as machine screws, close tolerance screws, cap hexagon screws, and cap socket head screws. Additional hardware items provided include pins, studs, and thumbscrews. The contract values have ranged from as low as $150 to as high as $13,661.35, with the majority of individual purchase orders falling between $1,000 and $5,000. All awarded contracts have been issued by the Defense Logistics Agency Aviation without prime contractor involvement, making Henway a direct prime contractor to the federal government. The company has received two contracts with Total Small Business set-aside designations—one in August 2022 for $13,661.35 in shear bolts and one in August 2025 for $9,280 in shear bolts—while the remaining contracts contained no set-aside designations, indicating open market competition or other procurement mechanisms. Performance for all contracts has been fulfilled at Henway's Tehachapi, California facility.

These IDCs were all set aside for small business concerns and cover specific bolt types including shear bolts and machine bolts. The first IDC, awarded July 1, 2022, with ultimate completion date of July 1, 2023, covers shear bolts (National Stock Number 4610092112) and has generated three delivery orders for quantities ranging from $425 to $1,562.50.

All five contracts utilize firm fixed-price structures with one-year terms or until ceiling values are reached, estimated order frequencies of four to ten orders annually, and guaranteed minimum purchase quantities. These IDCs provide Henway with flexible contracting arrangements to fulfill DLA Aviation's recurring requirements for critical standardized aviation hardware components across Defense Department maintenance and repair operations at both continental and overseas depot locations.
