PCX Inc.

PCX Inc., doing business as Pacific Component Xchange, is a Subchapter S Corporation distributor of obsolete, allocated, and long lead-time mechanical and electronic components that operates exclusively as a prime contractor on Defense Logistics Agency purchase orders and indefinite delivery contracts, with no disclosed SBA certifications. The vendor competes in full-and-open procurements, though it holds multiple Total Small Business set-aside IDCs and receives task orders and purchase orders designated as Total Small Business—a pattern that reflects DLA's vehicle structure rather than a small business certification of the vendor itself. Headquartered in Huntington Beach, California, with secondary operations in Kennett Square, Pennsylvania, PCX Inc. supplies valve assemblies, spring components, hose assemblies, filter elements, pump housings, fasteners, gaskets, bearings, shafts, electrical solenoids, tubing fittings, and specialized mechanical hardware in single-unit or small-batch transactions.

PCX Inc.'s customer base is dominated by the Defense Logistics Agency. The top five customers by award count account for 96% of recent activity: Defense Logistics Agency Land and Maritime leads by far with 5,593 awards and $88.7 million in combined potential value, followed by Defense Logistics Agency Aviation (1,442 awards, $12.3 million), Defense Logistics Agency Troop Support Construction and Equipment (738 awards, $13.3 million), Defense Logistics Agency Troop Support Hardware (562 awards, $1.9 million), and the Department of the Army Materiel Command Contracting Command Detroit Arsenal (94 awards, $5.2 million). When ranked by potential value, the Department of the Navy Naval Air Systems Command Naval Air Warfare Center surfaces as a significant outlier—12 awards carrying $49.4 million combined potential value—representing a concentration of high-value naval component supply work distinct from the vendor's typical DLA transactional footprint. DLA Land and Maritime remains the anchor customer across both rankings, representing roughly 49% of combined potential value.

Representative recent work illustrates PCX Inc.'s operational model. A June 18, 2026 purchase order from Naval Supply Systems Command awarded $86,953.84 for a globe valve with switch assembly, with delivery required by January 14, 2027. A May 20, 2026 purchase order from DLA Land and Maritime awarded $124,276.68 under a Total Small Business set-aside for 22 units of filter element fluid (NSN 4330014186564), with delivery required within 157 days to DLA Distribution facility W1A8. An April 27, 2026 purchase order from DLA Land and Maritime awarded $845,800.64 under a Total Small Business set-aside for two rotary pump units (NSN 4320013182451), with a 100-day delivery window and ultimate completion in September 2027—the single largest award in the recent portfolio. Additional examples include a June 23, 2026 DLA Aviation purchase order for $60,648.00 for shouldered and recessed washers, a June 18, 2026 DLA Land and Maritime order for $86,953.84 for globe valves, and a May 26, 2026 DLA Land and Maritime purchase order for $122,704.00 for solenoid valves under Total Small Business set-aside.

Activity has declined year over year after peaking in 2024: 836 awards in 2022, 1,203 in 2023, 1,273 in 2024, 916 in 2025, and 413 through 2026. Combined potential value across all awards stands at $181.7 million, with $95 million (52%) obligated. Within the next twenty-four months, 103 awards carrying combined potential value of $3.4 million face ultimate completion—a relatively modest recompete exposure given the vendor's transaction-based model and DLA's ongoing procurement needs.

PCX Inc. holds five active blanket purchase agreements and four single-award indefinite delivery contracts with DLA. The blanket purchase agreements include W911N222A0005 (Army Contracting Command-Redstone, 38 task orders, $504 thousand combined potential value) and several with Army Materiel Command procurement offices supporting Detroit Arsenal. The IDCs, all awarded in 2026 with $350,000 ceilings and one-year terms under Total Small Business set-asides, cover components including elbows, access covers, retaining rings, and pump impellers—each structured to support rapid fulfillment of obsolete and long lead-time parts across CONUS and OCONUS DLA distribution facilities.

The vendor's product concentration reflects its specialization in mechanical and electrical components for military logistics. The top NAICS categories are Industrial Valve Manufacturing (1,489 awards), Hardware Manufacturing (614), Fabricated Pipe and Pipe Fitting Manufacturing (500), Gasket, Packing, and Sealing Device Manufacturing (444), and Bolt, Nut, Screw, Rivet, and Washer Manufacturing (425). The top PSC codes are Valves, Nonpowered (1,747 awards), Hose, Pipe, Tube, Lubrication, and Railing Fittings (947), Hardware Commercial (480), Fire Fighting Equipment (428), and Packing and Gasket Materials (403). The vendor subcontracts minimally; it holds one documented sub-award (August 2026, Boeing, FY24 C-17 Virtual Fleet Material Requirements Aerospace Support), reflecting its primary identity as a component distributor to DLA rather than a systems integrator or prime defense contractor. PCX Inc. operates in full-and-open competition across DLA divisions and does not pursue or hold positions on government-wide vehicles, agency-wide IDIQs, or GSA Schedules.
