Quality Metal Finishing Corporation

Quality Metal Finishing Corporation operates as a small business prime contractor delivering metal finishing services — plating, anodizing, painting, and specialized surface treatments — to defense agencies under total small business set-aside and full-and-open designations, with 98% of recent awards as prime contracts and 2% as subcontract work.

Headquartered in Paterson, New Jersey, Quality Metal Finishing Corporation is a for-profit organization specializing in metal finishing across NAICS 332812 (Electroplating, Plating, Polishing, Anodizing, and Coloring) and related coating codes. The company's work supports maintenance, overhaul, and repair of naval aircraft, weapons systems, and military components to MIL-STD-171F standards. Recent representative prime work includes a $4.99 million single-award BPA with Naval Air Warfare Center (effective through November 2027), a $7.5 million multiple-award BPA with the Research Development and Engineering Command (through April 2029), a $25,350 firm-fixed-price purchase order from Naval Sea Systems Command for GFM re-plating (awarded November 2025), and an $87,280 purchase order from the Research Development and Engineering Command for window bracket assembly painting (September 2024). The company also subcontracts to Leidos on explosives research and development work (January 2024 sub-award).

Customer concentration is extreme and monolithic. The Naval Air Warfare Center accounts for 32 awards worth $105 million in combined potential value — 61% of all recent awards and 93% of total dollars. The Army's Research Development and Engineering Command ranks second with 9 awards worth $8.1 million. Naval Sea Systems Command, Picatinny Arsenal, and Joint Munitions Command together account for less than $250 thousand. This 98% coverage in the top customer block reflects near-total dependence on Navy aviation and weapons-system finishing demand.

Quality Metal Finishing Corporation operates from two primary BPA vehicles: BPA N6833523A0020 with Naval Air Warfare Center (19 task orders, $95 million combined potential value) and BPA N6833518A0017 with the Research Development and Engineering Command (11 task orders, $16 thousand combined potential value). The Naval Air Warfare Center BPA alone anchors 37% of all recent prime awards and 84% of total potential value; the company has issued monthly government purchase card calls against this vehicle since at least November 2023, each valued at approximately $5 million ceiling.

Activity accelerated sharply in 2024 (13 awards) and continues in 2025 (10 awards as of mid-November), reversing near-dormancy in 2022–2023 (2 awards per year). Combined potential value across all 52 awards is $113.3 million, though only $1.1 million (1%) has been obligated to date — most value sits in unexercised BPA ceilings and future task-order authority. The award footprint spans 15 years (first award April 2010), establishing Quality Metal Finishing Corporation as an incumbent defense supplier, though the bulk of recent concentration reflects sustained Naval Air Warfare Center reliance post-2023.
