About the company
Rickard Metals, Inc., doing business as Rickard Specialty Metals & Engineering, supplies specialty metals and alloys — aluminum, steel, titanium, and advanced materials in various specifications and shapes — to the Department of the Navy as a prime contractor (94% of recent awards) and as a subcontractor to major aerospace and defense primes. The company is a self-certified small disadvantaged business and woman-owned small business based in Santa Fe Springs, California, competing predominantly under total small business set-aside designations on its primary Navy vehicle, with secondary work placed under full-and-open competition. The company is a manufacturer of goods whose capability portfolio centers on specialty metals procurement and associated preparatory processing services including drilling, welding, heat treating, and material certification to military specifications.
Rickard Metals' customer concentration is extreme: the Naval Air Warfare Center accounts for 203 of 241 total awards (96% of award count) and $34.6 million of $46.4 million combined potential value (86% of dollars), with the balance spread across eight other Navy and Air Force offices. The company holds five active indefinite delivery contracts with Naval Air Warfare Center, the largest being a $19.3 million multiple-award total small business set-aside vehicle awarded July 31, 2025, and running through June 30, 2030, under the Applied Manufacturing Technology Division program. Two older IDCs carry nominal remaining value but maintain active task-order flow. Recent representative prime work includes a $204,000 delivery order (June 2026) for specialty metals and processing, a $35,125 delivery order (December 2025) for aluminum, steel, titanium, and advanced alloys, and a $63,160 delivery order (September 2024) supporting Naval Air Warfare Center research, development, test, and evaluation missions.
Activity shows growth trajectory: five awards in 2021 rising to twelve in 2025, with one award recorded year-to-date in 2026. The source does not specify recompete cliff data. In its subcontractor role, Rickard Metals delivers nonferrous forging and structural metals support to Northrop Grumman Systems Corporation (five sub-awards as of September 2025) and provides external processing, subassembly, and aerospace commodities to General Atomics (three sub-awards through 2024-2025) and The Boeing Company (five sub-awards through 2024), primarily on long-lead naval propulsion components and tactical aircraft programs including CVN 79 EMALS, F-15 EX, and XLUUV (ORCA) systems. Rickard Metals' award concentration by part number reflects its materials role: 167 awards fall under nonferrous metal rolling, drawing, and extruding; 169 awards are coded to structural shapes nonferrous base metal; and secondary volume covers plates, sheets, strips, bars, rods, and tubing.
