Midwest Aero Support Inc.

Midwest Aero Support Inc., a for-profit aerospace and electronics manufacturer based in Machesney Park, Illinois, with operations in Loves Park, serves the Department of Defense and Defense Logistics Agency as a prime contractor exclusively through firm fixed-price purchase orders for specialized aviation components and electrical equipment. The company competes in full-and-open federal procurement with no set-aside designations across its footprint.

Midwest Aero Support manufactures aircraft parts, electrical distribution equipment, and avionics components in concrete categories: module assemblies for frequency response electrical distribution, electrical equipment racks, sequential timers, pressure regulator deicers, and related auxiliary aviation equipment. Recent representative prime work includes four purchase orders from DLA Land and Maritime for module assembly FRE components (each valued at $51,576.90, completion dates ranging from July 2025 through April 2026), two purchase orders from DLA Aviation for electrical equipment racks ($65,788.26 each, awarded June 2024 and July 2023), and two purchase orders from Naval Supply Systems Command for sequential timers ($15,659.60 and $8,350, awarded April 2023 and September 2022). The company registered in the System for Award Management in 2004 and has accumulated over $500,000 in federal contract value over the past three years.

Customer concentration is heavily weighted toward Defense Logistics Agency Aviation. DLA Aviation accounts for 20 awards representing $2.2 million of the combined potential value across the company's 53-award footprint (91% coverage). Naval Supply Systems Command follows with 19 awards at $180 thousand combined potential value, and DLA Land and Maritime contributes 5 awards at $280 thousand. The Department of Homeland Security Coast Guard, Air Force Materiel Command Air Force Sustainment Center, and Naval Air Systems Command together account for the remaining awards. By dollar value, DLA Aviation's $2.2 million share dominates 79% of Midwest Aero Support's stated potential value.

Activity has remained modest and flat over five years: 4 awards in 2021, 4 in 2022, 2 in 2023, 1 in 2024, and 4 in 2025. The company operates without subcontractors — its entire footprint is prime work. Award cadence and dollar magnitudes ($8,350 to $90,925 per purchase order) characterize Midwest Aero Support as a specialist supplier to defense logistics channels rather than a large systems integrator, with work concentrated on manufacturing, test, and delivery of discrete components to support military aircraft readiness and logistics operations.
