Samros Enterprises Inc.

Samros Enterprises Inc., a minority-owned, Black American-owned small disadvantaged business headquartered in Waynesboro, Georgia, operates as a prime supplier of industrial hardware, fasteners, chains, hoses, gaskets, and mechanical components to the Defense Logistics Agency, competing predominantly in full-and-open (non-set-aside) procurements with occasional Total Small Business set-aside awards on indefinite delivery contracts.

The company's federal footprint is concentrated almost entirely within the DLA ecosystem. The top five customer agencies—Defense Logistics Agency Aviation, Land and Maritime, Troop Support Construction and Equipment, Troop Support Hardware, and Naval Sea Systems Command—account for 96% of awards. DLA Land and Maritime leads by potential value at $2.7 million across 214 awards, while DLA Aviation follows at $1.8 million across 223 awards. This dual concentration reflects the breadth of Samros's supply base: Aviation and Land and Maritime together represent 437 of 664 total awards. The company also holds two awards from DLA Troop Support Subsistence, demonstrating some diversification into procurement categories beyond traditional hardware.

Samros competes across the full spectrum of industrial commodity PSC codes. Top procurement categories by award count include Chain and Wire Rope (64 awards), Hardware Commercial (59 awards), Screws (56 awards), Hose, Pipe, Tube, Lubrication, and Railing Fittings (55 awards), and Nuts and Washers (42 awards). Representative contract work illustrates this mix: a $91,552.48 Total Small Business set-aside purchase order from DLA Subsistence in May 2025 for 776 ice storage chests; a $44,465.74 Total Small Business set-aside from DLA Aviation in August 2024 for chain assemblies; a $32,376.96 Total Small Business set-aside from DLA Land and Maritime in August 2025 for hose assemblies; and recurring firm fixed-price orders in the $1,000 to $15,000 range for fasteners, gaskets, wire rope, and safety equipment from DLA Aviation and Land and Maritime components.

Samros holds seven active indefinite delivery contracts with DLA, all as single-award vehicles with $250,000 to $350,000 ceilings and Total Small Business set-aside designations (except one full-and-open $350,000 DLA Aviation IDC awarded October 2025). The most recent IDCs, awarded in July and October 2025, target gaskets and wire rope assemblies respectively, with completion dates extending through 2026 and 2030. Historical patterns documented in award summaries indicate approximately 10 to 12 delivery orders annually per IDC, with typical 22- to 58-day delivery windows. These vehicles represent the vendor's standing procurement authority and the mechanism through which most DLA task orders flow.

Activity has grown materially over the past five years—from 47 awards in 2022 to 95 awards in 2024 and 95 in 2025 (with 10 awards recorded in 2026 through April 14). Combined potential value across all 664 awards stands at $5.6 million, with $2.2 million obligated (40% realization rate). Four awards face completion within the next twenty-four months, carrying combined potential value of $85 thousand—a minimal recompete cliff relative to the overall footprint, suggesting stable, recurring task-order ordering patterns rather than large single-award expirations.

Samros Enterprises operates as a pure-play DLA supplier with no subcontract presence and no multi-agency federal customer base. The company competes primarily on price and availability within commodity hardware categories where DLA maintains systematic procurement vehicles for small suppliers. The 664 awards over the source period reflect high transaction volume, low individual order magnitude (median orders under $5,000), and deep penetration across DLA's four principal components. The vendor's competitive posture favors suppliers seeking teaming relationships with primes serving broader federal logistics or defense modernization programs, where DLA hardware and components are routine sub-flows rather than primary deliverables.
