Precise Silicone Inc.

Precise Silicone Inc., a woman-owned small business and self-certified small disadvantaged business based in Mentone, California, manufactures specialized sealing devices, gaskets, and electrical components for Department of Defense supply chain operations as a 100% prime contractor under predominantly small-business set-asides. The company operates as a Subchapter S Corporation and competes almost exclusively in Total Small Business and service-disabled veteran-owned small business set-aside procurement, with minimal full-and-open competition across its recent award footprint.

Precise Silicone's capability portfolio centers on precision electrical and electronic components for defense applications, primarily shielding gaskets, battery box covers, gasket assemblies, O-rings, and mounting plates sourced to DLA depots. Recent representative work includes a $39,342 delivery order from DLA Land and Maritime (January 2026) for battery box covers under a single-award indefinite-delivery contract; a $58,292 firm-fixed-price purchase order (April 2024) for electrical shielding gaskets; a $27,216 purchase order (March 2025) for shielding gaskets under Total Small Business set-aside; and a $136,080 purchase order (July 2025) for 14,000 units of dust and moisture boots. The company holds three single-award indefinite-delivery contracts with DLA Land and Maritime: a $350,000 gasket assembly IDC awarded April 2026 with a one-year term through April 2027, a $250,000 battery box cover IDC awarded July 2025 through July 2026, and a $250,000 gasket assembly IDC awarded February 2025 through February 2026. All work is performed at Precise Silicone's Mentone manufacturing facility with no identified subcontractors.

Customer concentration is absolute — DLA Land and Maritime accounts for 22 of 23 awards (96% of combined potential value of $1.3 million), with DLA Aviation contributing one $33,600 purchase order (April 2025) for electronic mounting bases. Activity has accelerated from two awards in 2022 to ten in 2025, with five awards in the first quarter of 2026 alone. The company's award portfolio skews heavily toward small-dollar transactional work — the combined potential value across 23 awards totals $1.3 million with only $481 thousand obligated to date, reflecting purchase-order-driven procurement. Category concentration across recent awards clusters around capacitor, resistor, and inductor manufacturing (9 awards), battery manufacturing (4 awards), and gasket and sealing device manufacturing (4 awards) per NAICS classification, with PSC coding split between miscellaneous electrical and electronic components (9 awards) and packing and gasket materials (4 awards). The vendor faces no visible recompete cliff in the next twenty-four months; the three IDCs carry one-year terms that are structured to roll forward or renew based on sustained DLA requirements.
