Lentros Engineering, Inc.

Lentros Engineering, Inc., based in Ashland, Massachusetts, is a for-profit precision-manufacturing company that supplies defense and aerospace mechanical and electrical components to the federal government as a prime contractor (60% of awards) and subcontractor (40% of awards), competing predominantly under full-and-open procurement without set-aside designations on most prime work, though it holds a small-business designation and has won two total small-business set-aside purchase orders in recent activity.

The vendor's capability portfolio centers on precision-machined metal components, hydraulic and blower assemblies, antenna adapters, heat sinks, mounting brackets, worm gears, and specialized electromechanical assemblies for defense platforms. Representative prime work includes a $52,569 firm fixed-price purchase order from Defense Logistics Agency Land and Maritime awarded December 2025 for antenna adapter production (NSN 5985016444237), a $50,304 Patriot missile spares procurement from Army Aviation and Missile Command awarded September 2025 for damper flue components, and a $14,480 antenna adapter delivery order from DLA Land and Maritime awarded July 2025. Earlier high-value work includes a $100,191 firm fixed-price contract for Patriot damper flue assemblies from Aviation and Missile Command (September 2022) and a $77,900 total small business set-aside for 16 antenna adapters from DLA Land and Maritime (November 2021). Prime awards span low-dollar purchase orders—many in the hundreds to low thousands—alongside occasional higher-value spares contracts, reflecting the vendor's role as a catalog supplier for specialty defense components.

Customer concentration is heavily weighted toward the Defense Logistics Agency Land and Maritime, which accounts for 76 awards and $798 thousand in combined potential value across the 155-award prime footprint. Army materiel commands and aviation organizations represent the second tier; together, Army Aviation and Missile Life Cycle Management Command, Army Acquisition Support Center PEO Missiles and Space, and Army Communications Electronics Command account for $308 thousand of the $1.2 million combined potential value in the recent prime portfolio. DLA Aviation and Naval Sea Systems Command round out the top five. The top five customers account for 76% of award count but only 96% of potential-value coverage, indicating that the vendor's business model rests on high-transaction-volume, low-dollar-per-order prime work supplemented by subcontract revenue.

Lentros places work under five IDIQs and blanket purchase agreements; the largest vehicle is SPRBL115D0017 (an Army or DLA indefinite delivery contract carrying 15 task orders) and N0038325DNE01 (a Navy IDC with 4 task orders). The vendor does not appear on any government-wide acquisition contracts (GWACs), single-award BPAs, or GSA Schedules in the source data.

Activity has grown substantially in recent years—from five awards in 2022 to 53 in 2025—driven largely by an increase in smaller-dollar prime purchase orders from DLA and Army organizations. The combined potential value is $1.2 million against $12.5 million in obligated dollars, a ratio reflecting the vendor's capture of multiple reorders and modifications on existing contracts. Only one award is scheduled for ultimate completion within the next twenty-four months, presenting minimal near-term recompete exposure for the vendor but also signaling that a substantial portion of the active portfolio already carries completed or partially completed performance.

In its subcontractor role, Lentros delivers precision machining, hydraulic and blower assemblies, heat transfer devices, cable assemblies, welded and brazed metal work, and non-complex machined components to Raytheon Company (the dominant prime for 78 of the 82 sub awards in the source), supporting Patriot missile spares, AN/SPY-6(V) radar hardware, THAAD radar sustainment, Stinger missile production, and foreign military sales programs including support for Swiss, Saudi, Japanese, Kuwaiti, Romanian, Polish, Qatari, and Bahraini military platforms. Goodrich Corporation appears as a secondary prime on two sub-awards for MS-110 retrofit components (Poland and Bahrain). Lentros also works as a subcontractor to Raytheon Southeast Asia Systems Company on Qatar depot operations and technical assistance deliveries.

Lentros registered in the System for Award Management in April 2002 and maintains active SAM registration through February 2025. The vendor's award footprint across 204 prime and sub transactions (first award in source data: March 1988) reflects two decades of participation in the defense logistics supply chain as both a direct supplier to DLA and Army organizations and as a production partner to Raytheon on missile, radar, and integrated air-defense work. The vendor competes across NAICS categories dominated by search-and-detection-system manufacturing (43 awards) and radio/wireless equipment manufacturing (24 awards), with secondary concentration in guided-missile and space-vehicle manufacturing (11 awards). Most work is classified under PSC Antennas, Waveguides, and Related Equipment (42 awards) and fire control radar equipment (8 awards).
