About Loos & Co., Inc.

Written by GovTribe AI ·

Loos & Co., Inc. Cableware Division, doing business as Cableware Technology Division, manufactures military specification aircraft cables, cable assemblies, wire rope terminals, swaging sleeves, retaining clips, and related aviation hardware components as a prime contractor to the Defense Logistics Agency. The Naples, Florida-based manufacturer is a small business subsidiary of parent company Central Wire Industries LTD, a Canadian for-profit manufacturer, and competes predominantly in full-and-open procurements—the vast majority of its recent awards carry no set-aside designation, though four active indefinite delivery contracts are reserved as total small business set-asides.

Loos & Co.'s customer concentration is extreme and singular. DLA Aviation accounts for 437 awards (91% of total) with $5.7 million in combined potential value. DLA Land and Maritime captures 29 awards ($313 thousand), and a scattering of other DLA divisions, the Department of the Navy Naval Sea Systems Command, and assorted DoD customers make up the remainder across 570 total prime awards. The two-rank (by count and by potential value) converge entirely on DLA Aviation. Across the five-year window in the source, the vendor received 25 awards in 2022, peaked at 49 in 2023, declined to 31 in 2024, recovered to 37 in 2025, and shows only four awards so far in 2026. Combined potential value across all awards stands at $8.9 million, with $2 million obligated (23% utilization). Representative recent work includes a $19,490.16 total small business set-aside purchase order for 4,777 wire rope terminals awarded in September 2025, a $13,780 purchase order for ball end wire ropes from DLA Land and Maritime in February 2025, a $10,508.19 total small business set-aside purchase order for terminal rope swaging components in March 2022, and dozens of smaller routine replenishment orders ($500–$6,100) for swaging sleeves, retaining clips, and connector rod ends issued monthly.

The vendor's parent vehicle position sits on five active indefinite delivery contracts, all single-award, total small business set-asides with DLA Aviation or DLA Land and Maritime. The largest by task order volume is IDC SPE4A618D6892 (19 task orders, $45 thousand combined potential), followed by SPE4A619D5339 (18 task orders, $7 thousand). All IDCs carry $250,000 ceilings and performance periods extending through 2026–2029. These contracts are the mechanism through which DLA issues the routine monthly delivery orders that constitute the bulk of Loos & Co.'s activity—firm fixed-price orders for individual components ranging from under $100 to $20,000. The source data shows only 2 awards completing in the next twenty-four months with $15 thousand combined potential value, indicating minimal recompete cliff exposure in that window; the established IDC vehicles run through 2027–2029.

Loos & Co. operates as a 100% prime contractor footprint with no documented subcontract activity in the source. Its capability set is narrow, specialized, and consumable-focused: the top NAICS categories are Other Aircraft Parts and Auxiliary Equipment Manufacturing (297 awards) and All Other Miscellaneous Fabricated Metal Product Manufacturing (128 awards). PSC coding reinforces this: Fittings For Rope, Cable, And Chain (346 awards) and Aircraft Control Cable Products (160 awards) dominate. The vendor's role is that of a qualified products list–eligible supplier furnishing repetitive small orders of military-spec cable hardware to sustain DLA Aviation's inventory and support aircraft maintenance readiness across all service branches. Foreign ownership is explicit in multiple award summaries, and the vendor has maintained continuous SAM registration since February 2002.
