Jost Service Center LLC

Jost Service Center LLC, a woman-owned small disadvantaged business based in San Antonio, Texas, manufactures precision hardware components and mechanical parts for the Defense Logistics Agency as a prime contractor exclusively, competing predominantly under small business set-asides and full-and-open designated purchase orders. The company is structured as a sole proprietorship classified as a self-certified small disadvantaged business and woman-owned small business, operating without subcontractors and performing all work in-house at its San Antonio facility.

Jost's customer concentration is absolute within the Defense Department logistics ecosystem. The Defense Logistics Agency's Land and Maritime component accounts for 47 awards and $449,000 in combined potential value across the recent portfolio, with DLA Troop Support Construction and Equipment placing 9 awards worth $40,000 and DLA Aviation accounting for 5 awards worth $6,000. These three DLA sub-components represent 100% of the vendor's awards and combined potential value. Work spans mounting brackets, hinges, access doors, hooks, holders, knobs, levers, fasteners, and structural hardware—commodity-grade precision components with individual order values typically under $25,000. Representative awards include a $71,458.80 Total Small Business set-aside purchase order from DLA Land and Maritime in August 2025 for 41 holders (NSN 2040002124969) with delivery by May 2026, a $21,437.64 Total Small Business set-aside purchase order in January 2025 for holders, and a $7,500 Total Small Business set-aside delivery order in August 2025 for mounting brackets executed under a $250,000 Indefinite Delivery Contract with DLA Land and Maritime (NSN 5340016698017) running through December 31, 2025, which contemplates approximately three orders per year.

The vendor competes across hardware manufacturing (37 awards, 61% of portfolio), aircraft parts and auxiliary equipment manufacturing (10 awards), and metal window and door manufacturing (3 awards), with PSC coding centered on commercial hardware (40 awards) and aircraft ground servicing equipment (8 awards).
