Kristen L Gonel, doing business as Kegm Sourcing, a self-certified small disadvantaged business sole proprietorship based in Binghamton, New York, supplies precision mechanical components and industrial fasteners to the Defense Logistics Agency as a prime contractor on full-and-open purchase orders and a single-award indefinite delivery contract. The vendor does not compete under formal SBA set-asides despite the self-certified SDB designation; all awards are non-set-aside procurements, though the recently awarded IDC carries a Total Small Business set-aside designation.

Kegm Sourcing's entire federal footprint concentrates with the Defense Logistics Agency across two divisions. The Defense Logistics Agency Land and Maritime accounts for six awards totaling $356 thousand in combined potential value, while the Defense Logistics Agency Aviation accounts for five awards worth approximately $2 thousand. The two customer rankings are identical — DLA Land and Maritime dominates both volume and dollar magnitude — reflecting the vendor's narrow, specialized supply relationship. Recent representative work includes a $350 thousand single-award indefinite delivery contract from DLA Land and Maritime awarded March 19, 2026, for angle brackets (NSC 5340012424370) with consolidated delivery to DLA depots across CONUS and OCONUS through March 19, 2027; a $1.435 thousand firm fixed-price purchase order from DLA Aviation for flat washers awarded August 25, 2025; a $1.95 thousand purchase order for angle brackets from DLA Land and Maritime awarded March 31, 2025; and multiple sub-thousand-dollar orders for butt hinges, mounting brackets, screws, and nuts from both DLA divisions throughout 2025 and early 2026.

Activity is modest but consistent. Kegm Sourcing received six awards in 2025 and five in 2026, with combined potential value of $357 thousand across all eleven awards. Only one award completes within the next twenty-four months, carrying minimal recompete exposure. The vendor operates exclusively as a prime contractor with no subcontract relationships. Capability concentration falls within NAICS 332510 (bolt, nut, screw, rivet, and washer manufacturing) and PSC hardware categories, with work focused on mechanical fasteners and structural components supporting military readiness and aviation operations through DLA's supply chain function.
