Pitt Auto Electric Co

Pitt Auto Electric Co, doing business as Pitt Auto, is a small business wholesaler and distributor of automotive parts and components that operates as a prime contractor supplying the Defense Logistics Agency and Department of the Navy with replacement and repair components for military vehicle maintenance and logistics operations. The company, headquartered in Allison Park, Pennsylvania, competes in full-and-open procurements without set-aside designations on most awards, though several high-value contracts carry Total Small Business set-aside designations. Pitt Auto has maintained federal contractor status since January 2003 and delivers goods across PSC codes centered on engine components, fuel systems, electrical systems, and gaskets.

Pitt Auto's customer concentration is heavily tilted toward a single agency. The Defense Logistics Agency Land and Maritime accounts for 1,314 awards (71% of the award count) and $7.9 million in combined potential value (58% of total dollars), dominated by small purchase orders for cylinder barrels, cylinder heads, engine starters, gasket sets, filter elements, solenoid relays, hose assemblies, and ignition switches. The Department of the Navy Naval Supply Systems Command represents the second-largest customer with 12 awards valued at $2.8 million (20% of combined potential value), followed by the Navy Installations Command with eight awards worth $446 thousand. The top five customer organizations account for 93% of awards across the portfolio. DLA Land and Maritime's dollar share tracks closely with its award volume—the agency dominates both rankings—signaling sustained, transaction-intensive supplier relationships rather than a few large contracts.

Pitt Auto holds six active Indefinite Delivery Contracts with DLA Land and Maritime spanning January 2023 through January 2027. The largest, awarded January 7, 2026, is a $350,000 Total Small Business single-award IDC for gasoline governors with an expected three orders annually and a 120-day delivery window. A $250,000 IDC for gasoline cylinder heads (April 2, 2025 through April 2, 2026) has already generated a $12,973.80 delivery order. Earlier IDCs cover engine hand starters ($250,000), cylinder barrels ($250,000), air cleaner intake parts ($250,000), and ignition switches and locks ($250,000), most structured to sustain three to ten delivery orders per year with guaranteed minimums of four to thirteen units. These IDCs collectively establish Pitt Auto as an automated sourcing channel for high-velocity, low-dollar-value engine and drivetrain components across military vehicle depots in Continental United States and Outside Continental United States locations.

Award volume has contracted sharply. The vendor received 71 prime awards in 2022, declining to 37 in 2025 and 10 in 2026 year-to-date. This trajectory suggests either reduced procurement demand for the commodities Pitt Auto supplies or competitive displacement. The source records 1,842 total prime awards with $13.7 million in combined potential value and $11.1 million in obligated dollars, indicating execution of 81% of committed value across the portfolio lifetime.

Named capability work anchors the portfolio to discrete automotive subsystems: a $102,699.72 February 2025 Total Small Business cylinder barrel purchase order for 97 units; a $64,932 December 2024 gasoline cylinder head order for 50 units; a $30,344.13 February 2025 Total Small Business electrical engine starter order for 69 units; and a $88,989.92 delivery order for gasoline cylinder heads. The top NAICS categories—Other Engine Equipment Manufacturing (344 awards), Bolt, Nut, Screw, Rivet, and Washer Manufacturing (180 awards), and Gasoline Engine and Engine Parts Manufacturing (131 awards)—reflect a product footprint focused on engine accessory components, fasteners, seals, and fuel system hardware. Individual orders typically range from under $100 for small fasteners to tens of thousands of dollars for assembled engine components, with delivery windows of 74 to 132 days supporting DLA depots nationwide.
