About Thyssenkrupp Rothe Erde USA Inc.

Thyssenkrupp Rothe Erde USA Inc., operating as Rotek Incorporated, is a foreign-owned, for-profit manufacturer of precision bearing products — slewing rings, ball bearings, bow thrust bearings, and related components — that supplies the U.S. Department of Defense and civilian agencies as a prime contractor (97% of recent awards) on full-and-open, non-set-aside contracts. The vendor is a child entity of Thyssenkrupp Materials NA, Inc. and operates manufacturing facilities in Aurora, Ohio, with a federal award footprint spanning 226 prime and sub awards totaling $120 million in combined potential value since 1981.

Rotek's primary customer concentration is with Army vehicle modernization programs, driven by a single $31.95 million indefinite delivery contract (IDC) with the U.S. Army Materiel Command TACOM Life Cycle Management Command running through February 2027. TACOM accounts for 27 awards and $85.8 million in combined potential value — 71.5% of the total — making Rotek a critical supplier of slewing ring bearings for the Joint Light Tactical Vehicle and Family of Medium Tactical Vehicles turret programs. The Defense Logistics Agency Aviation segment ranks second with 41 awards and $17.8 million combined potential value, followed by the broader Defense Logistics Agency Land and Maritime organization, the Department of the Navy, and the Department of the Treasury United States Mint (13 awards, $157 thousand). The vendor serves 20 distinct customer agencies across defense and civilian applications.

The TACOM IDC anchors Rotek's vehicle position and has generated multiple delivery orders ranging from $122,130 to $2.085 million in ceiling value; recent representative prime awards include a $1.004 million TACOM delivery order for slewing ring bearings (January 2024), a $130,650 TACOM delivery order for slewing rings (March 2024), a $32,295 purchase order from the U.S. Mint for bearing supplies (January 2024), and a $1,890 Naval Sea Systems Command purchase order for grease analysis services (December 2024). The vendor also holds five additional IDCs with Defense Logistics Agency and Army procurement offices that collectively support 17 task orders with $7.6 million combined potential value. Award activity has been episodic — five awards in 2022, one in 2023, seven in 2024, five in 2025, and one in 2026 — with only $2 thousand in combined potential value facing ultimate completion inside the next twenty-four months.

Rotek's subcontract footprint sits downstream of major defense vehicle integrators. Recent sub awards include material supply to General Dynamics Land Systems (three awards from May 2025 through August 2025 for base contract goods and services), a March 2024 sub award to BAE Systems Land & Armaments for Bradley A4 follow-on production vehicle components, a February 2024 sub to American Rheinmetall Vehicles for wire race slewing bearings and machined ring forgings integrated to vehicle weapon stations, and a December 2025 sub to Textron Systems for Mobile Strike Force Vehicle spares supporting the Armed Forces of Ukraine. The vendor's award portfolio centers on ball and roller bearing manufacturing (103 awards) and mounted/unmounted antifriction bearings (PSC codes 6305 and 6310), with secondary exposure to military armored vehicle and tank component manufacturing. Obligated dollars across all awards total $60.3 million, representing 50% realization against combined potential value.
