One Source Industrial Sales, Inc.

One Source Industrial Sales, Inc., a Kentucky-based small business, supplies precision-engineered bearings, seals, gaskets, and lubricant testers to the Defense Logistics Agency as a prime contractor across 221 awards worth $2.9 million in combined potential value, competing predominantly under Total Small Business set-asides and full-and-open designations.

One Source is a for-profit Subchapter S corporation headquartered in Nicholasville, Kentucky. The vendor specializes in commercial off-the-shelf mechanical components and bearing assemblies critical to military aircraft, vehicle, and defense system maintenance. The portfolio concentrates heavily in NAICS 331900 (Ball and Roller Bearing Manufacturing), with secondary work in instrument manufacturing and gasket/packing devices. Awards range from sub-$1,000 micro-purchases to $138,818, with firm fixed-price purchase orders and delivery orders dominating the contract structure.

DLA Aviation accounts for the overwhelming majority of activity: 159 awards (72% of all awards) worth $1.6 million in combined potential value. DLA Land and Maritime ranks second with 18 awards ($1.2 million), followed by DLA Troop Support Medical with 42 awards ($116 thousand). The concentration is extreme and stable — DLA is the sole customer agency across all four fiscal years in the recent award history. Within DLA Aviation, the vendor delivers annular ball bearings, cylindrical roller bearings, self-aligning roller bearings, duplex ball bearings, and through-roller bearings; within DLA Land and Maritime, plain encased seals and seal ring metals; within DLA Troop Support Medical, lubricant testers. Representative work includes a $138,818 purchase order (June 2025, DLA Aviation, Total Small Business set-aside) for self-aligning roller bearings under NSN 3110012067426; a $117,652 purchase order (November 2023, DLA Aviation, Total Small Business set-aside) for self-aligning roller bearings; an $80,181 purchase order (November 2024, DLA Aviation) for cylindrical roller bearings under NSN 3110011591828; and a $53,990 purchase order (February 2025, DLA Aviation, Total Small Business set-aside) for self-aligning roller bearings under NSN 3110010113529.

One Source holds five single-award Indefinite Delivery Contracts with DLA, each with ceiling values ranging from $250,000 to $350,000: one awarded February 4, 2026 (DLA Land and Maritime, $350,000, Total Small Business set-aside, plain encased seals, through February 4, 2027); one awarded September 13, 2024 (DLA Land and Maritime, $250,000, Total Small Business set-aside, plain encased seals, through September 13, 2025); one awarded October 12, 2022 (DLA Land and Maritime, $250,000, no set-aside, plain encased seals and self-bearings, expired October 12, 2023); one awarded September 6, 2022 (DLA Aviation, $250,000, Total Small Business set-aside, bearing components and seals, expired September 6, 2023); and one awarded October 8, 2021 (DLA Land and Maritime, $250,000, no set-aside, plain encased seals, expired October 8, 2022). Delivery orders against these vehicles typically range from $2,000 to $20,000, with 14 task orders placed against the oldest active IDC (SPE4A616D0136) totaling $90 thousand.

Award activity peaked at 37 orders in 2022, declined to 17 in 2023 and 15 in 2024, then recovered to 26 in 2025, with 4 awards recorded to date in 2026. Three awards carry ultimate completion dates within the next twenty-four months and face recompete exposure, with combined potential value of $25 thousand. The vendor has not subcontracted on any federal work and appears to operate exclusively as a direct-bill supplier to DLA. DLA positions One Source as a reliable vendor for maintenance-critical spare parts, with sustained capacity to meet defense logistics standards across both routine procurement and surge requirements; the company's role is fundamentally transactional and fulfillment-oriented rather than solution-architecting or system-integrating.
