Henway, Inc.

Henway, Inc., operating through its Anatase Products Division and doing business as Henway Products, manufactures precision aviation fasteners and hardware components as a veteran-owned small business prime contractor to the Defense Logistics Agency, with 1,572 federal awards across a three-year slice (2022–2026) carrying a combined potential value of $6 million. All recent awards are prime contracts; the vendor does not subcontract. Henway competes predominantly in full-and-open procurements, though it holds Total Small Business set-aside positions on multiple indefinite delivery contracts with DLA.

Henway's footprint is nearly monolithic in customer concentration. The Defense Logistics Agency Troop Support Hardware accounts for 1,043 awards (66% of the portfolio) valued at $3.5 million combined potential, while DLA Aviation holds 354 awards (22% of volume) valued at $1.9 million—together representing 99% of the vendor's recent award count. The remaining customers (DLA Troop Support Construction and Equipment, the general DLA account, the U.S. Coast Guard, and Naval Supply Systems Command) are marginal by both volume and dollars. The portfolio reflects a highly specialized supplier role: Henway manufactures bolts, screws, studs, nuts, washers, and related hardware components under primary NAICS 332722 (Bolt, Nut, Screw, Rivet, and Washer Manufacturing) and PSC grouping 4710 (Bolts and related fasteners), with 1,417 awards explicitly for bolts and 132 for screws.

Award activity has contracted sharply. The vendor received 132 purchase orders in 2022, declining to 65 in 2023, 19 in 2024, 9 in 2025, and 10 through mid-2026—a pattern suggesting either reduced DLA demand, competitive displacement, or a shift in procurement strategy away from small frequent orders toward larger IDCs. Recent representative work includes a $13,661.35 Total Small Business shear bolt purchase order issued August 2022 with completion through November 2024, a $10,350 machine bolt order from May 2026 due March 2027, and a $9,280 shear bolt award (August 2025, Total Small Business set-aside) with completion in September 2026. The vendor holds multiple single-award indefinite delivery contracts with DLA Aviation and DLA Troop Support Hardware, each with a $250,000 ceiling, issued between March and July 2022 with terms extending through mid-2023; these vehicles carry Total Small Business set-asides and support automated fulfillment of recurring hardware requirements.

Henway's recompete exposure in the next twenty-four months is minimal: three awards with a combined potential value of $20 thousand face ultimate completion before October 2028. The vendor's headquarters and sole place of performance is Tehachapi, California. Performance across all awards is highly standardized—delivery of off-the-shelf fasteners to DLA depots for military aircraft and equipment maintenance—with order values typically ranging from several hundred to several thousand dollars and delivery cycles of one to six months. The vendor's veteran-owned status and small business footprint position it favorably on Total Small Business set-asides, but the sharp decline in award volume since 2023 signals either market softness or competitive pressure in this commodity supply segment.
