Kinedyne LLC

Kinedyne LLC, a woman-owned limited liability company based in Prattville, Alabama, manufactures cargo control and access equipment as a prime contractor to the Department of Defense, competing full-and-open (no set-asides used across its footprint). The company holds three single-award indefinite delivery contracts with Defense Logistics Agency components totaling approximately $1.25 million in ceiling value, from which it fulfills firm-fixed-price delivery orders and purchase orders for ring and stud fittings, quick-disconnect adapters, cargo tie-down straps, load binders, retaining straps, and aircraft tie-down equipment. Kinedyne is a subsidiary of The Heico Companies, L.L.C., a for-profit limited liability company based in Warrenville, Illinois.

Kinedyne's federal work concentrates heavily on DLA commodity procurement. The Defense Logistics Agency accounts for approximately 63% of recent awards across its three component divisions: DLA Aviation (105 awards, $9.1 million combined potential value), DLA Troop Support Construction and Equipment (156 awards, $3.3 million), and DLA Troop Support Hardware (45 awards, $1.8 million). The Army Materiel Command TACOM Life Cycle Management Command follows with 14 awards valued at $4.3 million combined potential value. Together, these customers represent 60% of Kinedyne's combined potential value. Across both rankings, DLA Aviation dominates the dollar base while DLA Troop Support Construction and Equipment drives the largest award count, reflecting a high-velocity, low-dollar transactional model typical of supply-chain commodity procurement.

Kinedyne holds three single-award IDCs: a $750 thousand contract with DLA Aviation through June 2027 for quick-disconnect adapters, a $250 thousand contract with DLA Aviation through December 2027 for ring and stud fittings, and a $250 thousand contract with DLA Land and Maritime through February 2024 for retaining straps. Representative recent delivery orders include a $70.2 thousand firm-fixed-price order from DLA Aviation in September 2024 for quick-disconnect adapters (ultimate completion March 2025), a $21.4 thousand order from DLA Aviation in September 2024 for ring and stud fittings (ultimate completion January 2025), and a $16.5 thousand order from DLA Aviation in May 2026 for ring and stud fittings (ultimate completion October 2026). Place of performance is Prattville, Alabama across all awards.

The vendor's capability portfolio aligns tightly with its NAICS distribution: the top categories are Other Aircraft Parts and Auxiliary Equipment Manufacturing (139 awards), Hardware Manufacturing (110 awards), and Hand and Edge Tool Manufacturing (71 awards). PSC codes confirm this focus — Hardware, Commercial (152 awards) and Parachutes; Aerial Pick Up, Delivery, Recovery Systems; And Cargo Tie Down Equipment (57 awards) are the dominant procurement classifications. Activity has declined sharply in recent years, from 33 awards in 2021 to 25 in 2022, 6 in 2023, and 4 in 2024; only two awards appear in the 2026 snapshot. The recompete cliff in the next twenty-four months carries minimal exposure — only one award worth $172 in potential value reaches completion in that window, indicating limited near-term contract renewal pressure but also limited near-term revenue visibility as existing IDCs exhaust their ceiling values and delivery orders complete.
