LCL Electronics Inc.

LCL Electronics Inc., a HUBZone-certified small business manufacturer based in Baxter, Minnesota, supplies high-reliability electronic components and assemblies to the Department of Defense as a prime contractor on purchase orders and indefinite delivery contracts, competing predominantly under HUBZone set-aside and small business set-aside vehicles. The company is a for-profit Subchapter S corporation specializing in circuit card assemblies, control panels, switch boxes, cable assemblies, relay assemblies, distribution boxes, and related electrical-electronic equipment for military aviation and ground systems platforms, with over 30 years of federal contracting experience.

LCL Electronics' customer concentration is heavily weighted toward the Defense Logistics Agency. The top five customer agencies by award count represent 70 percent of recent awards, with Defense Logistics Agency Land and Maritime leading at 416 awards ($14.2 million combined potential value) and Defense Logistics Agency Aviation at 201 awards ($13.9 million). However, the top customers by dollar value diverge significantly: Army Materiel Command Contracting Command Detroit Arsenal ranks first at 71 awards ($32.7 million combined potential value)—a concentration driven by major definitive contracts for specialized components. The Navy Naval Sea Systems Command accounts for 29 awards ($12.3 million), and Army Materiel Command TACOM Life Cycle Management Command for 75 awards ($8.5 million). These five agencies represent 73 percent of the vendor's combined potential value. Activity has grown markedly, from 30 awards in 2022 to 71 in 2025, with 47 awards ($4.3 million combined potential value) facing recompete within the next twenty-four months.

LCL Electronics holds multiple indefinite delivery contracts across its customer base. The Army Contracting Command Warren awarded a $6.52 million five-year IDC for indicating light panels (ultimate completion June 28, 2029), a $1.73 million IDC for indicating light panels (June 28, 2029), and a $974,675 IDC for switch boxes (July 31, 2028). Defense Logistics Agency Aviation awarded a $2.5 million IDC for UH-60 helicopter control panels (October 30, 2030), a $1.29 million IDC for missile controllers (July 29, 2030), and a $250,000 HUBZone IDC for cable assemblies (April 7, 2026). Army Contracting Command Warren also established a Basic Ordering Agreement for Class IX supplies through April 1, 2031. Recent representative prime work includes a $735,500 definitive contract from TACOM Life Cycle Management Command for relay boxes for the Cavalry Light Armored Vehicle Family (awarded May 2023), a $801,000 definitive contract from Defense Logistics Agency Land and Maritime for switch assemblies (May 2022), a $678,182 definitive contract from Army Contracting Command for mounting trays (June 2025), and a $321,090 definitive contract from Ogden Air Logistics Complex for F-16 panel components (April 2025).

Across its prime work, LCL Electronics competes under both set-aside and full-and-open vehicles, with set-aside categories recurrent across the footprint. Purchase orders are frequently designated as Total Small Business set-asides, HUBZone set-asides, and HUBZone small business set-asides; the indefinite delivery contracts show split posture—some as Total Small Business and HUBZone designations, others unrestricted. This mixed posture reflects the vendor's ability to compete in both protected and open markets. Primary NAICS categories cluster around printed circuit assembly manufacturing (216 awards), bare printed circuit board manufacturing (165 awards), aircraft parts manufacturing (123 awards), and switchgear manufacturing (58 awards). PSC codes reflect electrical and electronic assemblies, boards, and cards (426 awards), miscellaneous aircraft accessories (115 awards), and electrical control equipment (72 awards).

Subcontract work is minimal—three sub-awards to Lockheed Martin Corporation for production of the M270A2 Multiple Launch Rocket System (MLRS), spanning the manufacture of distribution boxes, IEDB unit repairs, and TDP updates, awarded between February 2023 and December 2023. This reflects LCL Electronics' primary posture as a direct prime to the federal government rather than as a subcontractor to larger primes.

The vendor's award footprint encompasses 1,289 total awards (prime and sub) with $111.5 million combined potential value and $69.4 million obligated (62 percent of potential). The bulk of recent activity is purchase orders—typically sub-$500,000 in ceiling value—placed against indefinite delivery contracts and directly by Defense Logistics Agency Land and Maritime and Aviation. The recurring work streams center on circuit card assembly production, control panel manufacturing, switch and relay assembly supply, and cable assembly delivery, with delivery schedules ranging from 90 to 390+ days post-award. LCL Electronics' geographic footprint is concentrated at Baxter, Minnesota, where all manufacturing and distribution operations occur, and the vendor maintains established relationships with Army Contracting Command Warren, Naval Supply Systems Command, Naval Air Warfare Center, and multiple Defense Logistics Agency organizations, positioning it as an embedded supplier within the Department of Defense electronics supply chain for military aviation and ground system sustainment.
