Mo Enterprises

Mo Enterprises, a woman-owned and minority-owned small business based in Bakersfield, California, supplies industrial materials, components, and equipment to federal defense agencies exclusively as a prime contractor on firm fixed-price purchase orders, with 100% of its recent award footprint consisting of prime awards under Total Small Business set-asides or full-and-open competition.

Mo Enterprises operates as a sole proprietorship competing predominantly under Total Small Business set-asides, which account for the vast majority of its awards. The vendor serves 74 distinct federal customer agencies across its active award footprint, but customer concentration is extreme: the Department of the Army's Joint Munitions Command dominates with 264 awards representing $5.5 million in combined potential value—approximately 55% of all awards in the source data and 55% of total potential value. Naval Sea Systems Command ranks second with 35 awards worth $738 thousand, followed by Army TACOM Life Cycle Management Command (28 awards, $282 thousand) and Army Medical Command (17 awards, $329 thousand). The top five customer organizations account for 66% of all awards and 75% of combined potential value, with Joint Munitions Command alone driving more than half of both metrics.

Mo Enterprises' capability portfolio centers on supplying specialized industrial materials and equipment to ammunition production, naval shipyard, and military maintenance operations. Recurring product categories include magnet wire (supplied to Portsmouth Naval Shipyard and Puget Sound Naval Shipyard for NEMA MW1000 wire in multiple gauges and weights), industrial chemicals (vermiculite insulation meeting ASTM-C-516, charcoal meeting NSF standards 60 or 61), pneumatic and hydraulic components (air regulators, pneumatic winches, hydraulic cylinders), grinding wheels and honing brushes (Norton brand cylindrical wheels for the Joint Manufacturing and Technology Center at Rock Island Arsenal), specialized equipment (steel strapping dispensers, portable air conditioners, parts washers, solvent spray gun cleaning cabinets), and miscellaneous supplies (plastic sheets, nails, felt pads, labels, steel drums, welding blankets). Recent representative awards include a $55.3 thousand Total Small Business magnet wire contract with Naval Sea Systems Command (August 2025), a $105 thousand firm fixed-price charcoal delivery to Joint Munitions Command (February 2024), a $74.2 thousand vermiculite insulation order for McAlester Army Ammunition Plant (April 2024), and a $54.4 thousand pneumatic winch supply contract with Joint Munitions Command (May 2024).

Mo Enterprises places work under several Army and Navy BPAs and IDCs. The Blanket Purchase Agreement W22G1F16A0002 carries 6 task orders worth $116 thousand; the Indefinite Delivery Contract W911N216D0031 carries 5 task orders worth $170 thousand; and the Indefinite Delivery Contract W52P1J10D3016 carries 2 task orders worth $174 thousand. These vehicles account for a small fraction of total activity; the bulk of work flows through direct purchase orders rather than standing agreements.

Activity has remained relatively flat over the past five years—16 awards in 2022, 18 in 2023, 13 in 2024, and 13 in 2025—with only 2 awards recorded in 2026 as of the reporting date. Combined potential value across all 577 awards in the source data is $10 million, with $8.5 million obligated (85% realization rate). The vendor's award portfolio shows no recompete cliff data in the source, but the consistent delivery of purchase orders through Joint Munitions Command and Naval Sea Systems Command suggests stable, recurring demand for commodity and specialized industrial supplies to defense manufacturing and maintenance operations. Mo Enterprises does not subcontract; it operates exclusively as a prime vendor. Top NAICS categories across the award footprint include Industrial Machinery and Equipment Merchant Wholesalers (35 awards), Broom, Brush, and Mop Manufacturing (21 awards), and Fabricated Metal Product Manufacturing (17 awards), reflecting the breadth of industrial-supply work performed. The vendor has been registered in SAM since May 2005 and maintains a long-standing supplier relationship with ammunition and shipyard operations across multiple military branches.
