Rosemount Aerospace Inc.

Rosemount Aerospace Inc., a subsidiary of RTX Corporation (formerly Raytheon Technologies, now United Technologies Inc.), manufactures high-precision aerospace sensors, pressure transmitters, and avionics components for the U.S. Department of Defense as a prime contractor competing on an open-market basis without small-business set-asides. The company operates from Burnsville, Minnesota, and competes 98 percent as a prime contractor, delivering components primarily for aircraft sustainment across DoD platforms.

Rosemount Aerospace's concrete capability portfolio centers on aircraft instrumentation and environmental control systems. The vendor manufactures pitot-static tubes, pressure transmitters, temperature sensors and transmitters, thermal resistors, ice detectors, windshield wiper motors and assemblies, circuit card assemblies, and various mechanical and electrical assemblies for military aviation. Recent prime work includes a $733.392 million delivery order from DLA Aviation (October 2025) for windshield wiper assemblies completing August 2028; a $601.350 million delivery order from the Air Force Sustainment Center (October 2022) for B-2 pressure transmitter unit repairs completing February 2026; a $549.734 million delivery order from DLA Aviation (August 2025) for pitot-static tubes completing August 2027; and a $1.481 million delivery order from DLA Aviation (August 2025) for immersion thermocouples completing February 2028. The company also holds a $9.999 million single-award Basic Ordering Agreement with DLA Aviation (awarded November 2023, completion November 2028) that has generated over $2 million in delivery order activity across multiple defense agencies.

Customer concentration is extreme and reflects specialization: DLA Aviation accounts for 5,178 awards (70 percent of total awards) with $1.48 billion combined potential value (73 percent of total), and the top five customer agencies by award count represent 89 percent of recent awards. By potential value, DLA Aviation dominates at $1.48 billion, with the Army's Materiel Command Aviation and Missile Life Cycle Management Command second at $74 million, and the Air Force Sustainment Center third at $38.5 million. This concentration in DLA Aviation reflects Rosemount's positioning as a sole supplier or narrow-field competitor for certain aerospace components critical to military aircraft platforms.

Vehicle position is anchored to DLA Aviation delivery orders. The five largest parent vehicles by task-order count include Indefinite Delivery Contract SPE4AX18D9413 (3,273 task orders, $215.2 million combined potential value), SPM4AX11D9001 (428 task orders, $62.4 million), SP046002D0218 (396 task orders, $466 thousand), SPM4A508D0003 (156 task orders, $16.2 million), and SP044099D0404 (74 task orders). These vehicles are DLA Aviation management instruments for component procurement; Rosemount's footprint under these vehicles reflects its established position as a core supplier of aircraft parts and instrumentation.

Activity trajectory shows moderate growth over the past five years (2022: 482 awards; 2023: 527; 2024: 556; 2025: 479; 2026 year-to-date: 67 awards), with a combined potential value of $2.04 billion and $884.7 million obligated to date. The recompete cliff presents moderate exposure: 387 awards with ultimate completion dates in the next twenty-four months carry combined potential value of $39.8 million.

Rosemount Aerospace serves as a subcontractor to major defense primes on development and production efforts. Named sub-prime relationships include Bell Boeing Joint Project Office (CMV-22 Osprey production and performance-based logistics for temperature transducers); The Boeing Company (Apache AH-64E new-build helicopters and F-15EX production); Northrop Grumman Systems (B-2 port transducer unit development and aircraft spares); General Atomics Aeronautical Systems (MQ-1C Gray Eagle unmanned aircraft system performance-based logistics and engineering services); and Bell Textron (Future Vertical Lift program development). These partnerships position the vendor within the supply chain for major platforms including the V-22 Osprey, B-2 Spirit, AH-64 Apache, F-15 Eagle, MQ-1 Gray Eagle, and next-generation vertical-lift aircraft.

Rosemount Aerospace's category concentration aligns with its instrumentation focus: 4,873 awards are coded to Other Aircraft Parts and Auxiliary Equipment Manufacturing (NAICS 336413), 658 to Other Measuring and Controlling Device Manufacturing, and 140 to Aircraft Manufacturing. By Product Service Code, the largest categories are Miscellaneous Aircraft Accessories and Components (2,112 awards), Flight Instruments (1,429), and Pressure, Temperature, and Humidity Measuring and Controlling Instruments (1,263). The company competes in full-and-open procurements without reliance on set-asides, reflecting its status as a large business subsidiary of RTX Corporation. Rosemount Aerospace's sustained dominance in DLA Aviation procurement and its position as exclusive supplier or narrow-field competitor for certain aircraft components—particularly pressure transmitters, pitot-static tubes, and ice detectors—anchors its federal footprint to sustainment and repair contracts rather than development or production programs.
