Masline Electronics Inc.

Masline Electronics Inc., a for-profit small business electronics supplier headquartered in Rochester, New York, delivers discrete electronic components—circuit breakers, capacitors, resistors, switches, transformers, relays, and related electrical parts—as a prime contractor exclusively to the Defense Logistics Agency and allied federal logistics buyers, competing predominantly under full-and-open purchase orders with occasional Total Small Business set-asides.

Masline competes entirely as a prime contractor (602 awards, 100% of recent volume), with no sub-award footprint. The company operates from its Rochester facility and a secondary location in Brighton, New York, serving as a high-volume transactional supplier rather than a strategy contractor. Recent representative work includes a $67.5 million Total Small Business set-aside purchase order from DLA Land and Maritime for circuit breakers (October 2024), a $290.6 thousand FAA order for NKK switches supporting the Runway Incursion Device development program (September 2024), a $225 thousand DLA Aviation order for bus conductors (September 2023), and a $443 thousand DLA Land and Maritime order for transformers (September 2023). The vendor also holds two single-award Indefinite Delivery Contracts (IDCs) with DLA Land and Maritime—one for connecting link rigs awarded October 2025 with a $250 thousand ceiling through October 2026, and a second for the same line item awarded January 2024 with a $250 thousand ceiling that expired in January 2025.

Customer concentration is extreme and immobile. DLA Land and Maritime accounts for 468 awards (78% of total volume) and $1.8 million in combined potential value (67% of total dollars). DLA Aviation adds 96 awards ($94 thousand), and the Army Materiel Command Communications Electronics Command contributes 15 awards ($282 thousand). The FAA, Naval Supply Fleet Logistics Center, and DLA Troop Support components round out a nine-agency customer set, but DLA's dominance is structural—the vendor competes almost exclusively for small-value purchase orders flowing through DLA's regional distribution network. Award velocity has decelerated sharply: 73 awards in 2023, 43 in 2024, 22 in 2025, and 7 in early 2026. Only two awards face ultimate completion inside the next twenty-four months (combined potential value $12 thousand), representing minimal recompete pressure.

The company's capability footprint centers on PSC-level granularity rather than system or platform scope. Circuit breakers dominate at 230 awards; resistors (71 awards), switches (43), capacitors (41), and connectors (30) form the secondary tier. At the NAICS level, Switchgear and Switchboard Apparatus Manufacturing (202 awards) and Capacitor, Resistor, Coil, Transformer, and Other Inductor Manufacturing (107 awards) anchor the classification profile. Masline does not hold or participate in any GWACs, agency-wide IDIQs, or multi-award vehicles; the sole IDV listed is a DLA-specific single-award contract. The vendor competes transactionally—each purchase order is typically under $15 thousand, with the portfolio ceiling value across 602 awards at $2.7 million and actual obligation at $1.7 million.

Masline's federal footprint reflects a stable supply-chain role for commodity electronic components in defense logistics operations, with no mobility toward higher-complexity systems, defense primes, or multi-agency vehicles. The sharp decline in award velocity and the absence of pipeline concentration in larger vehicles suggest a vendor managing a mature, declining order book from a single dominant customer rather than one pursuing growth or platform expansion.
