International Defense Fabrication, LLC

International Defense Fabrication, LLC is a for-profit Subchapter S Corporation registered in SAM.gov, specializing in defense fabrication and manufacturing of military components and equipment. Located in Lapeer, Michigan, the company serves the U.S. Department of Defense by producing a wide range of precision-engineered defense products, with a primary focus on fabricating specialized military hardware. The company has established itself as a reliable small business contractor capable of delivering complex defense-related components to various military logistics agencies.

The company provides an extensive array of fabricated defense products, including armor plates, vehicle brackets, mounting plates, machine gun mantlets, battery retainers, vehicle bows, curb ramps, and specialized vehicle assemblies. International Defense Fabrication has primarily worked with the Defense Logistics Agency (DLA), specifically its Land and Maritime and Construction and Equipment divisions, receiving both set-aside and non-set-aside contract awards. The company has demonstrated versatility by serving as both a prime contractor and a subcontractor, working with major defense contractors like BAE Systems Land & Armaments L.P. and ND Defense LLC. Many of its contracts have been designated as total small business set-asides, indicating its commitment to supporting small business participation in federal procurement.

International Defense Fabrication holds two significant Indefinite Delivery Contracts (IDCs) with the Defense Logistics Agency Land and Maritime. The most recent IDC, awarded in February 2024, is a single-award contract with a $250,000 ceiling value for armor plates, running through February 2025. The previous IDC, awarded in February 2022 and set aside for small businesses, also had a $250,000 ceiling and focused on mounting plates. Both IDCs enable the DLA to procure spare parts and components for military vehicles and equipment, with guaranteed minimum order quantities and estimated annual order frequencies. These contracts demonstrate the company's ongoing strategic relationship with DLA and its ability to provide critical support to U.S. military logistics and equipment maintenance programs.
