Linmarr Associates, Inc.

Linmarr Associates, Inc., a self-certified small disadvantaged and woman-owned business based in Irvine, California, supplies aerospace and defense hardware components—valves, seals, bearings, fasteners, hose assemblies, radiators, gears, pumps, and related spare parts—to the Defense Logistics Agency and Naval Supply Systems Command as a prime contractor on full-and-open and small-business set-aside purchase orders and indefinite delivery contracts.

The company operates as a Subchapter S corporation with woman-owned and small-disadvantaged-business designations. Linmarr competes across both full-and-open and set-aside vehicles; roughly one-third of recent awards carry total-small-business or competitive-8(a) set-aside designations, with the remainder awarded full-and-open. Linmarr has held federal contracts continuously since May 2001, with over ten thousand awards to date across a span of more than three decades in the source data.

Linmarr's recent work centers on DLA supply-chain fulfillment. Concrete representative awards include a $799,995 total-small-business purchase order from DLA Land and Maritime (October 2025) for 36 engine cooling radiators with delivery to DLA Distribution W1A8; a $965,817 definitive contract from DLA Aviation (January 2026) for three JTE antenna drive units; a $849,459.60 definitive contract from Naval Supply Systems Command (August 2025) for data pack assembly manufacturing; and a $392,275.20 small-business-set-aside repair contract from Air Force Materiel Command's Ogden Air Logistics Complex (June 2025) for antenna rotator restoration on the Joint Threat Emitter program. Linmarr also performs repair and restoration work on defense equipment: a $444,336 definitive contract (February 2026) for motor controller repair under the JTE program, and a $213,375.00 assessment-and-repair contract (February 2026) for motor controllers, both from Ogden Air Logistics Complex. Work is performed at Linmarr's Irvine facility and delivered to DLA distribution centers, military installations, and naval vessels nationwide.

Customer concentration is extreme and deliberate: the top five DLA divisions account for 96% of recent awards by count. DLA Land and Maritime leads decisively—5,369 awards, $149.2 million combined potential value—followed by DLA Aviation with 2,860 awards and $100.8 million. The two rankings align tightly; Land and Maritime dominates both volume and dollars. Secondary customers include DLA Troop Support Construction and Equipment ($26.6 million across 783 awards), DLA Troop Support Hardware ($15.9 million across 1,222 awards), and Naval Supply Systems Command ($8.5 million across 104 awards). Linmarr has worked with 23 distinct federal agencies total, but DLA and Navy account for the overwhelming majority of exposure.

Linmarr holds three active indefinite delivery contracts. Most recent is a $2.5 million single-award, no-set-aside IDC from DLA Aviation (awarded November 2025, completion December 31, 2027) for hydraulic accumulators and aerospace components supporting C/KC-135 weapons systems and other platforms. A $350,000 single-award total-small-business IDC from DLA Land and Maritime (February 2026, completion February 2027) covers engine radiators. Market-research language in the source describes Linmarr's historical IDC portfolio as encompassing three vehicles totaling approximately $1.25 million in ceiling value across aviation, land-and-maritime, and aerospace categories; the newer $2.5 million vehicle substantially expands that footprint. Linmarr places task orders against these IDCs; the top five named IDC vehicles show order activity ranging from 25 to 71 task orders each.

Activity trajectory shows volatility. Annual award counts declined from 411 in 2022 to 227 in 2024, then rebounded to 289 in 2025 and dropped to 65 in the partial year 2026 (through mid-April). The decline from 2022 to 2024 may reflect supplier consolidation or shifting DLA procurement patterns; the 2025 rebound and 2026 partial dip do not yet suggest sustained directional change. Within the next twenty-four months, 146 awards (combined potential value $16.6 million) are scheduled for completion and will face recompete or renewal.

Linmarr's category concentration reflects its hardware-focused business model. The top five NAICS include aircraft parts and auxiliary equipment (712 awards), mechanical power transmission equipment (704 awards), hardware manufacturing (661 awards), gasket and sealing device manufacturing (644 awards), and bolts, nuts, and fasteners (467 awards). Top PSC codes align: miscellaneous power transmission equipment, packing and gasket materials, hardware, hose and fittings, and vehicular furniture. This specificity—not a generalist supplier, but a deep bench in defense aerospace and mechanical spare parts—differentiates Linmarr's positioning within DLA's supply network.

Linmarr operates exclusively as a prime contractor on the awards in the source; no subcontract footprint appears. The company neither relies on prime-contractor partnerships nor acts as a sub to larger integrators. This prime-only posture, combined with Linmarr's small-business designations and the prevalence of DLA set-aside activity in its recent awards, suggests the vendor has built a niche as a direct-to-government small-business supplier rather than pursuing large-prime or teaming strategies.
