About the company
Patten Tool & Engineering Inc., doing business as PTE Precision Machining, is a small business subchapter S corporation based in Kittery, Maine, that manufactures precision-machined metal components and assemblies for the Department of Defense as a prime contractor. The vendor competes across both small-business set-asides and full-and-open procurements, with set-aside work recurring across total small business designations on the majority of its active contract awards from Naval Sea Systems Command.
PTE Precision Machining's capability portfolio centers on precision machining, metal fabrication, and surface finishing for naval shipbuilding and vessel maintenance. The company's recent work includes a $106,986 total small business set-aside purchase order from Naval Sea Systems Command (December 2024) for the manufacture of 300 positioning rings from CUNI 70/30 material for the Portsmouth Naval Shipyard; a $98,880 total small business set-aside award (September 2024) for outer and inner ring weld mock-up fabrication; and a $98,930 total small business set-aside purchase order from Defense Logistics Agency Land and Maritime (May 2022) for positioning rings. Across the source period, PTE Precision Machining has delivered tapered pin kits, spool shims, deck plugs fabricated from 316L stainless steel, spur gear components, specialized tool assemblies, anodizing and plating services, and numerous other tight-tolerance components specified to naval engineering drawings. The company has been registered as a federal contractor since April 2002.
Customer concentration is extreme and Navy-centered. Naval Sea Systems Command accounts for 685 of 793 total awards (86% of award count) and $5.3 million of the $5.9 million combined potential value across all awards. Naval Supply Systems Command represents 82 awards, $363 thousand. Defense Logistics Agency Land and Maritime holds 16 awards, $239 thousand. Three remaining Navy customers (Department of the Navy, Pacific Fleet Forces, Bureau of Naval Personnel) account for less than 1% of dollars. The vendor serves no civilian federal customers in the source period.
PTE Precision Machining places task orders under two parent indefinite delivery contracts: Indefinite Delivery Contract N0010201A0812 (48 task orders, no combined value specified in source) and Indefinite Delivery Contract SPMYM315D3097 (9 task orders, $50 thousand combined potential value). The vendor operates as a 100% prime contractor footprint; no subcontract work appears in the source.
Activity shows growth in award count from 10 awards in 2022 to a peak of 25 in 2024, with 17 awards in 2025 and 1 award in the first quarter of 2026. The recompete cliff is minimal: only 1 award ($28 thousand) reaches ultimate completion in the next twenty-four months. Award values cluster in the $1,000 to $30,000 range; the median purchase order is sub-$15,000. The vendor's NAICS footprint spans machine shops (224 awards), hardware manufacturing (103 awards), bolt and fastener manufacturing (94 awards), electroplating and surface finishing (28 awards), and miscellaneous metal fabrication (32 awards). The PSC concentration mirrors this: hardware commercial (223 awards), nuts and washers (48 awards), screws (41 awards), and valves (35 awards).
