Ralmark Co

Ralmark Co, a for-profit manufacturer of military-specification pulley and power-transmission components headquartered in Larksville, Pennsylvania, supplies the Defense Logistics Agency with grooved pulleys and related assemblies as a prime contractor exclusively — competing predominantly in full-and-open procurements with recurring small-business set-aside awards. The company qualifies as a small business and has maintained continuous federal vendor registration since April 2002, with over two decades of established supplier relationships across DLA's Aviation and Land and Maritime divisions.

Ralmark's federal work consists almost entirely of manufacture and delivery of NSN-coded pulley components for military aviation, land, and maritime equipment maintenance and repair operations. The vendor's NAICS footprint centers on Other Aircraft Parts and Auxiliary Equipment Manufacturing (190 awards) and Mechanical Power Transmission Equipment Manufacturing (127 awards), with primary PSC coding 4320 (Gears, Pulleys, Sprockets, and Transmission Chain) accounting for 328 awards across the portfolio. Representative work includes a $350 thousand single-award Indefinite Delivery Contract awarded by DLA Land and Maritime on December 30, 2025, for precision-engineered groove pulleys (NSN 3020005280511) with a one-year term and estimated four delivery orders annually; a $54,585.65 total small-business set-aside purchase order from DLA Land and Maritime in October 2025 for 635 units of grooved pulleys (NSN 3020008812063) to DLA Distribution Red River; and a $151,355.42 total small-business set-aside delivery order from DLA Land and Maritime in March 2023 for 1,638 pulley units (NSN 3020002771119) to DLA Distribution Depot Hill. All manufacturing occurs at Ralmark's company-owned facilities in Kingston or Larksville, Pennsylvania, with no material subcontractor involvement across the prime footprint.

Customer concentration is absolute and stable: the Defense Logistics Agency Land and Maritime and Aviation divisions account for 92% of recent awards (360 of 426 total) and 91% of combined potential value ($7.1 million of $8.5 million). The two divisions track nearly identically in both volume and dollars — Land and Maritime holds 210 awards at $4.2 million combined potential value, while Aviation holds 150 awards at $2.9 million — with a residual 34 awards to the DLA headquarters line at $708 thousand. This concentration reflects Ralmark's singular focus on DLA procurement as the primary federal customer; no other federal agencies appear in the award portfolio.

Activity has declined year over year from a peak of 19 awards in 2022 to 4 awards through the first quarter of 2026, though the recent volume is consistent with the purchase-order cadence typical of DLA's small-value replenishment orders. Combined potential value across all 426 awards totals $8.5 million, with $5.9 million (70%) obligated to date. The top five parent vehicles — all Indefinite Delivery Contracts — account for 41 task orders, with IDC SP040002D3102 carrying the largest single vehicle footprint at 18 task orders. The vendor holds three active indefinite delivery contracts with DLA Land and Maritime and Aviation, each with $250 thousand ceilings under small-business set-asides, plus a newly awarded $350 thousand single-award IDC from DLA Land and Maritime effective December 2025 through December 2026. This set-aside designation recurs consistently across the prime portfolio — approximately 30% of discrete purchase and delivery orders carry total small-business set-aside flags, while the remainder compete full-and-open against DLA's unrestricted procurement authority.
