About the company

Hydra-Electric Company, doing business as Hydra-Electric Co, manufactures high-performance pressure switches, flow switches, thermostatic switches, and related aerospace and defense components for the federal government, operating almost exclusively as a prime contractor (99% of recent awards) on firm fixed-price delivery orders and indefinite delivery contracts issued by the Defense Logistics Agency.

Hydra-Electric is a for-profit manufacturer headquartered in Burbank, California, founded in 1948, competing full-and-open with no SBA set-aside designations. The company's federal footprint centers on National Stock Numbered (NSN) pressure and flow switches for military logistics and equipment maintenance, with work performed at its Burbank facility and delivered to Defense Logistics Agency distribution depots throughout the continental United States and overseas locations. Primary NAICS categories reflect the product mix: Current-Carrying Wiring Device Manufacturing (615 awards), Switchgear and Switchboard Apparatus Manufacturing (456 awards), and Other Electronic Component Manufacturing (291 awards). PSC concentration is dominated by switches (3,683 awards).

Customer concentration is extreme: the Defense Logistics Agency Land and Maritime accounts for 2,440 awards (62% of total) and $61.6 million in combined potential value, with Defense Logistics Agency Aviation and Defense Logistics Agency representing an additional 802 awards and $5.3 million. The top five customers account for 85% of awards and dominate both award count and dollar rankings. Hydra-Electric has minimal exposure outside DLA—the Department of the Air Force (66 awards) and Department of the Navy (48 awards) are distant tertiary customers.

The vendor's vehicle position is fragmented across multiple single-award indefinite delivery contracts with DLA Land and Maritime and DLA Aviation. Recent IDCs include contracts valued at $250,000 to $350,000 with one-year performance periods. Ten named IDCs carry ceilings ranging $250,000 to $350,000, with delivery orders typically ranging $2,600 to $167,000. Representative recent prime work includes a $350,000 single-award IDC for NSN 5930010894212 pressure switches awarded April 10, 2026 (78-unit initial order, 12 orders annually estimated), a $350,000 single-award IDC for NSN 5930011903473 pressure switches awarded March 18, 2026, and a $350,000 single-award IDC for NSN 5930004887028 pressure switches awarded March 3, 2026. A five-year $349,999.99 IDC with DLA Aviation was awarded January 14, 2026.

Activity has declined moderately—118 awards in 2022, declining to 17 in 2026 year-to-date (through April 10, 2026). Combined potential value across all awards stands at $87.7 million, though combined obligated dollars are $110.4 million, indicating historical order flow has exceeded estimated ceilings. Twenty-two awards (combined potential value $1.6 million) complete in the next twenty-four months, creating modest recompete exposure.

Hydra-Electric holds a subcontractor position under prime contractors including Northrop Grumman Systems Corporation (contractor logistics support for Global Hawk and Japan/ROK/NATO sustainment; three sub-awards December 2025–February 2026), The Boeing Company (common aerospace commodities and F-15 variants; five sub-awards February–June 2025), Bell Textron Inc. (Future Vertical Lift FLRAA development; seven sub-awards August–September 2025), and Raytheon Company and Raytheon Southeast Asia Systems Company (flow, pressure, flight switches and relays; two sub-awards April–December 2025). Sub work is concentrated on military aircraft programs (F-15, Global Hawk, FVL FLRAA) and totals 45 sub-awards (1% of footprint), with nine of the 17 named primes appearing once.

Hydra-Electric's federal presence is defined by deep, sustained DLA Land and Maritime consolidation—a single-customer, single-product-category supplier with no meaningful diversification across civilian agencies, other military services, or non-component categories. The company competes consistently in full-and-open procurements and holds no set-aside designations. Recompete activity is modest; the vendor's footprint is maintenance-oriented logistics supply rather than development or systems integration.
