About the company
Jo-Kell Inc., a woman-owned small business manufacturer based in Chesapeake, Virginia, supplies electrical components and assemblies to the Department of Defense as a prime contractor on purchase orders and indefinite delivery contracts, competing almost exclusively in full-and-open and Total Small Business set-aside procurements. The company is SBA-certified as a woman-owned small business and self-certifies as a small disadvantaged business, operating as a for-profit manufacturer of goods.
Jo-Kell's customer concentration is heavily skewed toward Defense Logistics Agency (DLA) platforms. The top five funding agencies account for 92 percent of recent awards by count and 93 percent by combined potential value, with DLA Land and Maritime commanding the award portfolio at 13,562 awards valued at $436.7 million combined potential value, followed by DLA Aviation at 3,827 awards valued at $144 million. Naval Supply Systems Command adds $100.1 million across 1,213 awards; Naval Sea Systems Command contributes $26 million across 1,706 awards. The company's capability footprint centers on discrete electrical components — switches (3,429 awards), circuit breakers (1,781), relays and solenoids (2,084), thermal release heaters, transformers, indicator lights, contactors, and related electrical hardware serving aircraft, naval vessels, and ground equipment platforms. NAICS concentration mirrors this: Other Electronic Component Manufacturing (3,657 awards), Relay and Industrial Control Manufacturing (2,033), Switchgear and Switchboard Apparatus Manufacturing (2,020), and Other Measuring and Controlling Device Manufacturing (1,877) dominate the footprint. Representative prime work includes a $534.97 million Total Small Business delivery order from DLA Land and Maritime for circuit breakers (July 2026), a $280.22 million Total Small Business delivery order from DLA Land and Maritime for circuit breakers (June 2026), a $251.29 million Total Small Business purchase order from Naval Supply Systems Command for circuit breakers (June 2026), a $407.68 million Total Small Business purchase order from DLA Land and Maritime for sensitive switches (May 2026), and a $1.21 million full-and-open delivery order from Department of the Navy Aviation for cable assemblies (June 2026). Smaller single orders for indicator lights, connectors, and specialized components round out the transaction base, with most awards under $100 thousand.
Jo-Kell holds a broad portfolio of single-award indefinite delivery contracts with DLA Land and Maritime, each carrying $350 thousand ceilings and one-year terms. The source lists six named IDCs awarded between May 21 and June 16, 2026, covering mechanical hardware kits, magnetic contractors, thermal relays, relay subassemblies, and general electrical component categories. An additional single-award IDC with DLA Aviation carries a $350 thousand ceiling through June 2031. These vehicles structure rapid procurement of specific SKUs via delivery orders, with guaranteed minimums and estimated order frequencies per year. The named IDCs generated dozens of delivery and purchase orders during the source period (May through August 2026).
Activity has trended downward: 2,195 awards in 2022, declining to 919 awards year-to-date in 2026. This trajectory reflects the commodity-goods nature of Jo-Kell's business — high transaction volume but declining order frequency. Within the next twenty-four months, 995 awards (combined potential value $55.5 million) reach ultimate completion and face recompete, creating mid-market opportunity for competitors and recompete risk for the vendor.
In its subcontractor role, Jo-Kell supplies electrical components and assemblies to General Dynamics Mission Systems and Huntington Ingalls on ship construction and fire control programs, including CVN 80 aircraft carrier engineering efforts and DDG 51 destroyer class construction work. These represent small sub-award exposure relative to the prime footprint.
Jo-Kell competes almost entirely in full-and-open and Total Small Business set-asides on DLA and Navy purchase orders and indefinite delivery vehicles. The vendor does not hold GWACs, agency-wide IDIQs, or GSA Schedules in the source record. Place of performance centers on Chesapeake, Virginia (manufacturing headquarters), with secondary performance locations at Portsmouth, Virginia; Philadelphia, Pennsylvania; Newburgh Heights, Ohio; and various DLA distribution centers across CONUS and OCONUS. The company's business model is built on manufacturing agility and rapid order fulfillment to DLA distribution networks rather than large program development or systems integration.
