Optimum Solutions Engineering, LLC

Optimum Solutions Engineering, LLC, a minority-owned, self-certified small disadvantaged business based in Escondido, California, operates as a prime contractor and subcontractor providing aircraft spare parts, engineering support, maintenance technician services, and logistics support to the Department of Defense and NASA. The company structures itself as a limited liability company and competes under total small business set-asides on its prime awards.

The vendor's federal footprint is modest and episodic. Over the past seven years, Optimum Solutions Engineering has held four awards split evenly between prime and sub roles, with combined potential value of $290 thousand, though obligated dollars across all awards total $892 thousand (308% of combined potential value), indicating task-order intensity or scope expansion on existing vehicles. The three customer agencies served are the Department of the Army Headquarters West Point Military Academy (one award, $243 thousand), the Department of the Navy Naval Sea Systems Command (one award, $46 thousand), and NASA Armstrong Flight Research Center (two awards). The Army West Point contract, a firm fixed-price purchase order awarded August 31, 2022, and completed November 18, 2022, under total small business set-aside, represents the vendor's largest single prime award. As a subcontractor to Northrop Grumman Systems Corporation, Optimum Solutions Engineering provides aircraft and ground control station spare parts alongside engineering, maintenance technician, logistics technician, and pilot support under two awards dated July 27, 2023, focused on electrical and cable equipment assembly work.

Activity is sparse and declining. The vendor received one award in 2016, one in 2022, and two in 2023; no awards appear in the source after July 2023. The two NASA Armstrong awards sit on an indefinite delivery contract vehicle (80AFRC21D0002) that accounts for both task orders. The vendor's primary NAICS classifications center on radio and television broadcasting and wireless communications equipment manufacturing and air transportation support activities, with work scope primarily concentrated on aerospace spare parts and ground support services.
