Metalcraft, Inc.

Metalcraft, Inc., operating as Metalcraft Incorporated Division and doing business as Metalcraft Inc., is a small business manufacturer specializing in fire suppression and detection systems. The company has established itself as a critical supplier of fire safety equipment to the U.S. Department of Defense, primarily through contracts with the Defense Logistics Agency (DLA). Based in Baltimore, Maryland, and registered in SAM.gov since January 2002, Metalcraft serves exclusively federal customers, with a particular focus on providing fire extinguishers and fire suppression chemicals to support military operations and defense logistics requirements. The company's product portfolio includes standard fire extinguishers, HALON 1301 fire extinguishers, and specialized fire suppressant chemicals such as MONOBROMOTRIFLUOROM, all essential for protecting personnel and equipment across DoD platforms.

Metalcraft's federal contract history demonstrates extensive experience delivering fire safety products across multiple DLA divisions. The company has received over thirty prime federal contract awards from the Defense Logistics Agency Troop Support Construction and Equipment division and DLA Aviation, with contract values ranging from approximately $90,000 to $462,000. These awards encompass both purchase orders and delivery orders for fire extinguishers under various National Stock Numbers, with delivery locations primarily at DLA Distribution facilities in San Joaquin, Richmond, and Baltimore. Metalcraft has fulfilled contracts for quantities ranging from 250 to 1,000 fire extinguishers per award, with firm fixed-price contract structures and performance periods extending up to 490 days. A substantial portion of Metalcraft's awards have been designated as Total Small Business set-asides, though the company has also successfully competed for non-set-aside contracts on a full and open basis, demonstrating competitive capability beyond small business restrictions. Beyond fire extinguishers, Metalcraft has supplied fire suppression chemicals, including MONOBROMOTRIFLUOROM and HALON 1301, supporting both aviation and general defense logistics missions. The company's consistent contract activity with DLA indicates a strategic partnership, with awards distributed across multiple years from 2021 through 2025, reflecting sustained demand for fire safety equipment throughout the federal supply chain.

Metalcraft currently holds a single-award Indefinite Delivery Contract (IDC) with the Defense Logistics Agency Aviation, valued at $1,880,524.84 with a period of performance through July 24, 2029. This IDV, awarded on July 25, 2024, serves as the primary vehicle for Metalcraft to supply fire extinguishers and fire suppression chemicals to support Department of Defense aviation platforms and weapons systems. Under this contract vehicle, DLA Aviation has issued delivery orders for HALON 1301 fire extinguishers and other fire safety equipment, with orders valued at $361,347.74 each. The IDV includes line items for MONOBROMOTRIFLUOROM and other specialized fire suppressant products, enabling DLA Aviation to maintain ready access to critical fire safety supplies for military aircraft and aviation-related equipment. Delivery of products under this IDV occurs to DLA Distribution facilities, particularly in Baltimore, Maryland, positioning Metalcraft as a key logistics partner for aviation-specific fire safety requirements. The non-set-aside designation of the IDV and its delivery orders indicates that Metalcraft has been selected through full and open competition, validating the company's technical capabilities and pricing competitiveness in the broader federal contracting marketplace for fire suppression equipment.
