About the company
Kidde Technologies Inc. Kidde Dual Spectrum Division, operating as Kidde Dual Spectrum, is a subsidiary of Collins Aerospace (RTX Corporation) that manufactures fire and overheat protection systems and related safety components for military aerospace and ground vehicle platforms, selling as a prime contractor (97% of awards) on full-and-open competitive basis with no set-aside designations across the federal defense supply chain.
Kidde Dual Spectrum's capability portfolio centers on fire suppression equipment, detection systems, electrical control assemblies, and specialized aerospace safety components. Representative prime work includes a $4.1 million definitive contract awarded by Army PEO Ground Combat Systems in August 2024 for 722 control electronics panels for military vehicles; multiple large indefinite delivery contracts with Defense Logistics Agency for fire extinguishers supporting the Bradley Fighting Vehicle and Stryker platform families, with ceilings ranging from $2.4 million to $6.6 million and extending through 2027–2028; and a $1.058 million purchase order from DLA Aviation in July 2024 for 554 fire sensor units. The company competes across full-and-open procurements—predominantly purchase orders and delivery orders—without reliance on set-aside categories, reflecting its positioning as a qualified sole-source or limited-source supplier of specialized military fire safety components.
Customer concentration is heavily weighted to defense logistics. The top five funding agencies account for 90% of awards by count. Defense Logistics Agency Land and Maritime leads by award count (1,267 awards, $78.3 million combined potential value), followed by DLA Aviation (673 awards, $40.4 million). However, potential value concentration diverges sharply: Department of the Army Materiel Command Contracting Command Detroit Arsenal anchors the dollars at $290 million across 218 awards, reflecting large platform production and sustainment contracts for ground combat vehicles. DLA Land and Maritime contributes $78.3 million, DLA Aviation $40.4 million, and Army TACOM Life Cycle Management Command $14.8 million. This concentration in ground combat vehicle platforms (Bradley, Stryker, M109 Paladin self-propelled howitzer families) reflects Kidde Dual Spectrum's specialized role as a sole or preferred source for fire suppression systems integrated into these vehicle architectures.
The company holds multiple single-award indefinite delivery contracts. Four major IDCs awarded in January 2025 by ACC Warren carry ceilings of $2.425 million, $3.6 million, $6.629 million, and $6.16 million, respectively, for fire extinguisher supply through 2027–2028, structured as firm fixed-price long-term IDIQ vehicles. These contracts reflect sustained demand for standardized fire safety components supporting ongoing military vehicle production and sustainment. Top parent vehicles include SPE7MX14D5008 (517 task orders, $484 thousand combined value), SPM7LX12D9002 (66 task orders, $3.1 million), and W56HZV06D0116 (13 task orders, $73.7 million), indicating reliance on long-standing DLA supply vehicles.
Activity has grown moderately: 49 awards in 2022 to 123 in 2025, with 7 awards in the first quarter of 2026. Forty-two awards (combined potential value $13.9 million) face ultimate completion within the next twenty-four months, signaling recompete exposure in fire extinguisher and sensor supply contracts.
In its subcontractor role, Kidde Dual Spectrum supplies fire suppression and detection components to prime contractors on major ground vehicle programs. Named prime partners include BAE Systems Land & Armaments (M109A7 production, Bradley A4 follow-on production, M88A2 upgrades), General Dynamics Land Systems (optionally manned fighting vehicle development, Mobile Protected Firepower engineering), Bell Textron (AH-1Z production), Bell Boeing Joint Project Office (CMV-22 production), ND Defense (MRAP refurbishment), and Lockheed Martin (M270 MLRS production). Sub awards typically flow materials—extinguishers, connectors, sensors, control panels—for integration into vehicle safety systems.
The company's award footprint spans fire fighting equipment (548 awards), miscellaneous battery retaining fixtures and liners (615 awards), rechargeable batteries (259 awards), and miscellaneous electrical power and distribution equipment (171 awards), grounded in primary NAICS codes for storage battery manufacturing (651 awards), military armored vehicle and tank component manufacturing (170 awards), and other miscellaneous electrical equipment manufacturing (233 awards). Combined potential value across all awards sits at $479.1 million, with $484.8 million already obligated, indicating active, mature execution across a deep portfolio of component supply and sustainment contracts.
