About the company

PCI Aviation LLC, an SBA 8(a)-certified tribally-owned small disadvantaged business based in Atmore, Alabama, manufactures specialized aviation hardware, test equipment, and components for Department of Defense platforms as a prime contractor (100% of recent awards), competing predominantly under 8(a) sole-source and competitive 8(a) set-asides. The company operates under parent entity Ecke Holding Co LLC, a federally recognized Native American-owned firm, with sister subsidiaries Adaptive Mission Technologies LLC, Creek Defense Solutions, and Critical Mission Services GP.

PCI Aviation's customer base concentrates heavily on naval aviation sustainment. The Naval Air Warfare Center (Naval Air Systems Command) accounts for 50 awards worth $112.4 million combined potential value, anchoring the portfolio with recurring delivery orders for specialized components, test equipment, and engineering services. The Marine Corps follows with six awards valued at $76.8 million, followed by Air Force Materiel Command's Warner Robins Air Logistics Complex with seven awards at $31.7 million. These three customers account for 78% of recent awards by count. However, the potential-value ranking diverges dramatically: Naval Sea Systems Command (Seaport-NXG IDIQ) carries a multi-billion-dollar ceiling, yielding $4 billion combined potential value across three awards despite representing only a small award count. This signals massive long-term vehicle capacity anchoring the portfolio, though the dollars are heavily concentrated in two large government-wide vehicles rather than distributed across operational delivery orders.

Hardware manufacturing and engineering services form PCI Aviation's core capability framing, with 23 awards under hardware manufacturing, 21 under engineering services, and nine under instrument manufacturing for electrical test equipment. Representative work spans aircraft maintenance and repair equipment (19 awards), professional engineering and technical support (18 awards), and airfield operations (12 awards combined). Concrete examples include a $20.3 million 8(a) sole-source definitive contract with the Marine Corps for KC-130 maintenance at MCAS Cherry Point (awarded March 28, 2023, completion June 27, 2027); a $13.1 million 8(a) sole-source contract with Air Force Life Cycle Management Center Robins for rotary-wing aircraft engineering investigative services (April 25, 2025, completion April 24, 2030); and a $6.18 million 8(a) sole-source contract with Warner Robins Air Logistics Complex for AC/MC-130J aircraft integration engineering (September 29, 2025, completion September 28, 2027). Foreign object debris (FOD) mitigation, test equipment production (CASS Family of Testers), engineering support for the HARM AGM-88 weapon system, and component supply for F-35, F/A-18, C-130, and AV-8B platforms recur across the prime footprint. PCI Aviation also manufactures specialized aviation components including cable assemblies, harnesses, adapters, and throttle units for naval aviation platforms.

The vendor holds significant vehicle positions. The Seaport Next Generation (Seaport-NXG) multiple-award IDIQ with Naval Sea Systems Command carries a $4 billion ceiling (awarded January 2, 2025, ultimate completion January 1, 2029), with a $10.5 million delivery order already placed for Public Key Infrastructure and Key Management Infrastructure support to US Fleet Forces Command (Atlantic Fleet) through February 2031. The Consolidated Automated Support System (CASS) Family of Testers single-award IDIQ with Naval Air Systems Command holds a $56.5 million ceiling (awarded December 23, 2024, ultimate completion December 22, 2026) with five delivery orders issued to the Marine Corps between January and March 2026 totaling $56.5 million in combined value. The $5.19 million HARM AGM-88 engineering IDIQ with Air Force Sustainment Center (awarded August 4, 2023, ultimate completion August 3, 2027, Competitive 8(a) set-aside) has generated six delivery orders since award. A $48.8 million FOD mitigation single-award IDIQ with Naval Air Warfare Center (awarded September 18, 2025, 8(a) sole-source, ultimate completion September 22, 2030) anchors recurring sustainment revenue. The vendor also holds smaller vehicles including a $7.35 million reliability and maintainability engineering IDIQ with Warner Robins Air Logistics Complex (awarded September 9, 2022, 8(a) sole-source), and a Basic Ordering Agreement for Class IX supplies established July 14, 2026, with Defense Finance and Accounting Service through April 1, 2031.

Activity has grown from 12 awards in 2022 to 20 in 2025, with five awards recorded through August 2026. Nineteen awards valued at $113.4 million combined potential reach ultimate completion within the next twenty-four months, creating significant recompete exposure in FY2027–FY2028. This concentration reflects the maturation of PCI Aviation's large CASS and FOD mitigation vehicles and near-term rolloff of engineering contracts, establishing a critical recompete window for renewal.

Service Contract Inventory captures only $1.6 million in SCI-reportable invoiced revenue across FY2022–FY2024 (two prime records, three sub records), a strict subset of the vendor's federal services activity and far smaller than the total federal contract footprint. SCI-reported workforce averaged 1.7 FTEs in FY2022, declining to 1.0 FTE by FY2024. Median government-paid hourly rates on SCI prime contracts ran $274.71/hr. Across SCI-reportable prime contracts, subcontractors performed approximately 37% of contractor hours, with two named subcontractors recorded, indicating PCI Aviation builds its own delivery teams for most work while using limited sub-engagement for specialized labor.

Recent 8(a) sole-source awards reflect the vendor's established incumbent position on critical naval aviation sustainment programs, with the Air Force Sustainment Center and Naval Air Warfare Center concentrating the largest contract dollars. The December 2025 Missile Defense Agency SHIELD IDIQ award ($151 billion placeholder ceiling, ultimate completion December 28, 2035, no set-aside) represents entry into a long-term homeland defense vehicle, though the initial task order carries only a $500 ceiling. PCI Aviation competes almost entirely under SBA 8(a) set-asides, with the CASS, Seaport-NXG, and SHIELD vehicles as partial exceptions (no set-aside at award, though some task orders are set aside and others are not). The tribally-owned and Native American-owned designations across the corporate family signal positioning to capture Indian Small Business Economic Enterprise and 8(a) opportunities, and the parent company structure supports multiple business lines for federal defense contracting.
