About QED Inc.
QED Inc., a Santa Ana, California-based small business manufacturer, supplies precision instrumentation and aerospace-defense components—principally pressure gauges, dial indicators, accelerometers, bellows, and related machined parts—to the Defense Logistics Agency as a prime contractor. The vendor operates as a Subchapter S Corporation with over 58 years of manufacturing experience and maintains continuous SAM.gov registration dating to April 2002. QED competes exclusively in full-and-open procurements; recent awards show no set-aside designations on individual delivery orders, though nine of its ten active Indefinite Delivery Contracts with DLA Aviation carry Total Small Business set-aside designation at the vehicle level.
QED's federal footprint is deeply concentrated with the Defense Logistics Agency. The top five funding agencies account for 88 percent of recent awards by count, led overwhelmingly by DLA Aviation (866 awards, $24.6 million combined potential value) and the broader DLA organization (139 awards, $964 thousand). The second-tier set—Department of the Air Force, Department of the Navy, and DLA Land and Maritime—collectively account for less than 12 percent of volume and dollars. This concentration is structural: 966 of QED's 1,261 total awards fall under PSC code for pressure, temperature, and humidity measurement and control instruments, reflecting the vendor's specialization in pressure dial gauges and related instrumentation for military aircraft maintenance and logistics.
QED holds ten active Indefinite Delivery Contracts with DLA Aviation and one with DLA Land and Maritime, with ceiling values ranging from $249,999.99 to $355,683 and performance periods extending through 2030. Combined ceiling across the nine DLA Aviation IDCs exceeds $2.6 million. The vendor has accumulated over $1.5 million in cumulative delivery orders against these vehicles, demonstrating sustained demand. Recent representative work includes a $67,656 full-and-open purchase order from DLA Aviation (January 7, 2026) for eight mechanical accelerometers; a $46,183.50 full-and-open delivery order for pressure dial gauges (January 12, 2024); and a $26,617.50 Total Small Business set-aside purchase order for pressure dial gauges (April 11, 2025). All performance occurs at QED's Santa Ana facility.
Activity has remained stable year over year—37 awards in 2022, ramping to 51 in both 2024 and 2025—with modest recompete exposure in the next twenty-four months (three awards, $43 thousand combined potential value). The vendor operates exclusively as a prime contractor; no subcontract footprint appears in the source. QED's customer base, vehicle position, and capability set reflect a tightly focused role as a sole-source or single-award supplier of standard pressure measurement and aerospace instrumentation components to DLA's aviation logistics operation, with limited exposure to other customer agencies or contract vehicles.
