About the company
Josephson Manufacturing Company, doing business as Josephson Manufacturing Co, manufactures precision-engineered engine cooling radiators, fluid cooling manifolds, fan shrouds, and related thermal management components for military vehicle and aircraft maintenance as a prime contractor to the Defense Logistics Agency, competing predominantly under total small business set-asides. The company is a for-profit Subchapter S Corporation and self-certified small disadvantaged business based in Fort Dodge, Iowa, registered in SAM.gov since 2004.
Customer concentration is extreme and singular. The Defense Logistics Agency Land and Maritime accounts for 25 of 29 awards (86% of volume) and $909 thousand of $939 thousand in combined potential value (97% of dollars). DLA Aviation placed one award valued at $30 thousand, DLA Troop Support Construction and Equipment two awards totaling $578, and the Department of the Army one award with no dollar figure disclosed. The two customer rankings are nearly identical — Land and Maritime dominates both count and value. Josephson holds a single-award Indefinite Delivery Contract with DLA Land and Maritime, awarded December 15, 2025, with a $350 thousand ceiling, a 12-month performance window ending December 15, 2026, and a procurement structure anticipating three orders annually against engine cooling radiators (NSN 2930012826569) to support military vehicle maintenance across DLA's depot network with 136-day delivery windows to continental and overseas consolidation points.
Recent activity has accelerated sharply. The vendor secured one award in 2022, three in 2023, two in 2024, thirteen in 2025, and seven through mid-March 2026. The combined potential value of all 29 awards is $939 thousand, with $638 thousand obligated (68% of ceiling). Representative prime work includes a $201,588.73 firm fixed-price purchase order from DLA Land and Maritime for 155 engine cooling radiators under total small business set-aside (awarded October 2, 2023, completion March 5, 2025); a $78,489 purchase order for 58 engine cooling radiators under total small business set-aside (awarded November 24, 2023, completion November 22, 2024); a $40,600 purchase order for fluid cooling manifolds under total small business set-aside (awarded October 10, 2025, completion March 19, 2026); and a $29,952 purchase order from DLA Aviation for aircraft engine radiators under total small business set-aside (awarded September 16, 2025, completion January 26, 2026). All work is firm fixed-price and performed at the Fort Dodge facility.
Set-aside posture is characteristic. The source notes that approximately 60 percent of Josephson Manufacturing's federal awards carry total small business set-aside designations; the remaining work competes on an unrestricted basis. The vendor subcontracts minimally — one identified sub-award as a material supplier to Textron Systems Corp for mobile strike force vehicle spares in support of armed forces of Ukraine (awarded March 19, 2026). Product scope is narrowly focused on NAICS 333415 (air-conditioning and refrigeration equipment manufacturing) and PSC code 29-P (engine accessories), with 22 of 29 awards categorized as engine cooling system components for nonaircraft platforms and one for aircraft prime movers. Josephson competes and wins repeatedly against the same customer (DLA Land and Maritime), with contract values ranging from under $200 to over $201 thousand and delivery cycles of 136 to 200 days. One award with completion in the next twenty-four months carries $3 thousand in potential value.
