Indiana Oxygen Company Inc.

Indiana Oxygen Company Inc., doing business as Hoosier Oxygen Company, is a veteran-owned small business manufacturer and distributor of industrial, medical, and laboratory compressed gases that operates as a prime contractor exclusively — supplying cylinder and bulk industrial gases, specialized gas mixtures, and gas handling equipment to Department of Defense and other federal agencies under a single-award Indefinite Delivery Contract with the Naval Sea Systems Command.

Indiana Oxygen is based in Indianapolis, Indiana and holds a Total Small Business set-aside IDC valued at $2 million, awarded by Naval Sea Systems Command on September 16, 2021, and extending through September 15, 2026. The company performs substantially all work directly without major subcontractors and has generated 332 prime awards across its federal footprint, with combined potential value of $8.6 million and $1.7 million in combined obligated dollars (20% of potential value). The vendor's capability portfolio centers on nitrogen, helium, argon, oxygen, sulfur hexafluoride, acetylene, propane, and specialized gas blends — both in portable cylinders and bulk liquid form — delivered to support naval shipbuilding, maintenance, research and development, and weapons systems activities. Representative work includes a $47,038.30 delivery order (December 1, 2025) for industrial compressed gases in cylinders and bulk with September 2027 completion; a $42,692.38 delivery order (July 10, 2024) for bulk nitrogen from Naval Strategic Systems Programs; and a $42,440 delivery order (November 2, 2022) for industrial compressed gases in bulk and bulk refrigerated liquid carbon dioxide from Naval Supply Systems Command.

Customer concentration is extreme. The Department of the Navy Naval Sea Systems Command accounts for 250 of 332 awards (88% of award count) and $7.9 million of combined potential value (92% of dollars), with delivery locations spanning Indianapolis and Crane, Indiana. The next four named customers (Naval Strategic Systems Programs, Naval Supply Systems Command, Naval Air Systems Command, and Department of the Army Materiel Command Joint Munitions Command) collectively represent 41 awards and $467 thousand in potential value. A single Environmental Protection Agency award for $100 thousand rounds out the active federal customer set. Indiana Oxygen sits on multiple Navy IDCs and basic ordering agreements: Indefinite Delivery Contract N0016421D1009 (63 task orders, $445 thousand potential value), Basic Ordering Agreement N0016411GBT06 (34 task orders, $979 thousand potential value), and Indefinite Delivery Contract N0016406D0002 (1 task order). The primary vehicle, Indefinite Delivery Contract N0016416D1002, carries 183 task orders valued at $650 thousand combined potential value.

Activity has accelerated recently — four awards in 2022 to eighteen in 2025 — though the source captures only four awards in 2026 (the report date is mid-July). Three awards carrying combined potential value of $68 thousand face ultimate completion within the next twenty-four months, representing modest recompete exposure. The vendor's award history spans from 2004, with sustained delivery-order activity concentrated since the September 2021 IDC award. Industrial Gas Manufacturing dominates the NAICS footprint (260 of 332 awards), with compressed and liquefied gases the predominant PSC category (285 of 332 awards). Indiana Oxygen competes under the Total Small Business set-aside on its core IDC; numerous downstream delivery orders carry no set-aside designation, issued full-and-open against the underlying small business vehicle.
