Ordnance Technology Service, Inc.

Ordnance Technology Service, Inc., headquartered in Painesville, Ohio, is a small business manufacturer of precision-engineered mechanical and electrical components for defense and aerospace applications, operating as a prime contractor on the vast majority of federal awards (99% of recent volume) across the Defense Logistics Agency and Department of Navy.

The company manufactures specialized ordnance-related and industrial parts for military platforms, including solenoid valves, piston rings, cable assemblies, hydraulic components, relief valves, mounting plates, shaft assemblies, cylinder assemblies, bearing assemblies, hose assemblies, and related mechanical and electrical components for military vehicles, weapon systems, naval equipment, and torpedo systems. Representative recent prime work includes a $26.78 million definitive contract with Naval Sea Systems Command (September 2025) for hull assembly and fleet exercise section components for the MK48 torpedo system through December 2031 (including one first article test unit and 58 initial production units with four option years), an $881,380 definitive contract with Naval Sea Systems Command (September 2025) for MK54 afterbody section machined parts completing September 2026, a $599,539 purchase order with Naval Supply Systems Command (December 2025) for 21 rotating bases completing October 2026, and a $528,129 purchase order with Naval Supply Systems Command (May 2025) for specialized cable assemblies (CABLE ASSEMBLY,UMBI) completing October 2027. The company also supplies high-volume commodity components through numerous smaller purchase orders, many in the $1,000 to $100,000 range, across DLA Land and Maritime and DLA Aviation.

Customer concentration tracks heavily to Navy and DLA customers. The Department of Navy's Naval Supply Systems Command leads by dollar value with 578 awards and $93.6 million combined potential value, followed by Naval Sea Systems Command with 277 awards and $67.7 million. Defense Logistics Agency Land and Maritime accounts for 1,236 awards ($30.4 million) — the largest count by volume but smaller per-award magnitude — with DLA Aviation contributing 211 awards ($8.2 million). Together these five agencies account for 96% of award count and 99% of potential value. Tension between the rankings reflects distinct customer profiles: DLA Land and Maritime places frequent small orders (component-level logistics), while Navy platforms anchor larger production contracts.

Ordnance Technology Service holds a portfolio of Indefinite Delivery Contracts with DLA entities. Named IDCs on record include single-award contracts for piston rings (NSN 3040010317500, $250,000 ceiling, August 2025 through August 2026), mounting plates (NSN 5340012646860, $250,000 ceiling, July 2025 through July 2026), electrical housing components (DLA Aviation, $250,000 ceiling, total small business set-aside, June 2025 through June 2030), and shaft assemblies (NSN 3040010317490, $250,000 ceiling, total small business set-aside, February 2025 through February 2026). Activity data indicates four active IDCs totaling approximately $1 million across DLA Land and Maritime and DLA Aviation. The company also executes task orders against other DLA IDVs, including IDC SPE7MX23D0057 (15 task orders, $796 thousand combined potential value) and IDC N0025311D0002 (13 task orders, $1.6 million combined potential value).

Award trajectory shows growth: 103 awards in 2022 rising to 153 in 2024 and 146 in 2025, with a smaller sample (21 awards) in 2026 year-to-date through mid-April. Fifty awards with completion dates inside the next twenty-four months carry $9.4 million combined potential value and face recompete risk. The company's NAICS concentration centers on Industrial Valve Manufacturing (208 awards), Search, Detection, Navigation, Guidance, Aeronautical, and Nautical System and Instrument Manufacturing (174 awards), and Mechanical Power Transmission Equipment Manufacturing (134 awards). Product Service Code concentration aligns with torpedo and ordnance work: Torpedos And Components, Inert (320 awards) and Torpedo Maintenance, Repair, And Checkout Specialized Equipment (215 awards) dominate, alongside Valves, Powered (187 awards) and Miscellaneous Power Transmission Equipment (181 awards).

In its subcontractor role, Ordnance Technology Service performs rework and manufacturing support for torpedo systems and propulsion facilities under Science Applications International Corporation (SAIC) and Amentum Services Inc. Named sub awards include MK 48 velocity sensor switch assembly rework (SAIC, October 2023), MK 48 MOD 7 afterbody torpedo tailcone rework (Amentum, September 2025), and propulsion test facility shaft and engine shaft maintenance (SAIC, August 2025). Sub work constitutes less than 1% of total awards.

The company competes on a mix of set-aside and full-and-open procurement. Recent awards carry both Total Small Business set-aside designations (approximately 25% of named recent awards) and no set-aside designations (the plurality). The company does not hold active positions on government-wide acquisition contracts or GSA Schedules named in the source. A subsidiary, Otsi, LLC, is listed as a limited liability company in the corporate structure but no operational distinction is described in the awards.

Place of performance for the vast majority of work is Concord Township, Ohio (with one noted exception at Mentor, Ohio for a meter mount cushion component), with deliveries to DLA distribution centers and Navy logistics depots located within the Continental United States and overseas (OCONUS) through consolidation and containerization points.
