Rochester Electronics LLC

Rochester Electronics LLC, doing business as Rochester Electronics, supplies digital, linear, and memory microcircuits to the Defense Logistics Agency and the Department of the Navy as a prime contractor on firm fixed-price purchase orders and as a subcontractor to major defense primes. The company operates as a for-profit limited liability company and manufacturer of semiconductor components headquartered in Newburyport, Massachusetts, competing full-and-open across federal procurement without set-aside designation on the vast majority of awards, though it qualifies for and occasionally wins Total Small Business set-asides.

Rochester Electronics' customer base is heavily concentrated with the Defense Logistics Agency Land and Maritime, which accounts for 1,283 awards (85% of the prime footprint) and $9.8 million in combined potential value—approximately 71% of the company's total federal revenue. The Department of the Navy Naval Sea Systems Command represents the second-largest customer with 23 awards and $1.3 million combined potential value. The remaining customer agencies (Defense Logistics Agency headquarters, Air Force Materiel Command, Naval Supply Systems Command, and twenty others) account for substantially smaller award volumes and dollar magnitudes. Purchase orders consistently range from under $1,000 to roughly $75,000, with typical transaction sizes under $10,000, reflecting DLA's routine component procurement model rather than large-dollar contract vehicles.

Rochester Electronics' capability portfolio centers on supplying qualified products list and commercial off-the-shelf microcircuits—digital logic, linear analog, and memory components—that support weapons platforms, communications equipment, and aviation technologies across the defense industrial base. Recent prime awards include a $75,366.72 Total Small Business set-aside purchase order from DLA Land and Maritime in July 2024 for 242 units of digital microcircuits under NSN 5962013040477; a $66,123.01 Total Small Business set-aside order in the same month for 71 units of linear microcircuits under NSN 5962014642907; and a $60,600 full-and-open purchase order from DLA in May 2025 for digital microcircuits. The company also fulfills smaller routine orders at $700 to $3,000 per transaction, which dominate its award count and reflect high-velocity, low-dollar procurement typical of military spare-parts logistics.

Activity has grown from 60 awards in 2022 to 140 in 2024, then moderated to 99 in 2025 and 22 year-to-date in 2026, tracking DLA's seasonal and tactical procurement patterns. The company faces minimal recompete exposure, with only nine awards carrying ultimate completion dates within the next twenty-four months and a combined potential value of $16,000. Top parent vehicles include several DLA indefinite delivery contracts (SP096004D7157, SPM96004D7157, SP090503D5411) carrying 7, 7, and 4 task orders respectively, though individual task order values remain modest.

In its subcontractor role, Rochester Electronics supplies digital logic semiconductors and microprocessors to Raytheon Company on Patriot M903 launching station production contracts, to Northrop Grumman Systems Corporation on Air Launch Cruise Missile inertial navigation element remanufacture, to Lockheed Martin Corporation on M299 Hellfire launcher legacy component obsolescence support, and to L3 Technologies on radio full-rate production. These relationships confirm the company's position as a critical component supplier within the defense industrial base, particularly for weapons platform sustainment and legacy system support where specialized obsolete and qualified microcircuits are essential.

Rochester Electronics competes predominantly full-and-open, with Total Small Business set-asides representing a small fraction of recent awards. The company's federal profile is driven entirely by DLA Land and Maritime routine spare-parts procurement—the agency issues new purchase orders weekly across multiple NAICS categories (Semiconductor and Related Device Manufacturing, Other Electronic Component Manufacturing, Computer Terminal and Peripheral Equipment Manufacturing), with Rochester Electronics consistently positioned as a qualified source for military-specification and qualified-products-list microcircuits. No parent vehicles, GWACs, or agency-wide IDIQs anchor the footprint; awards flow through DLA's direct transaction authority at the component level.
