Skurka Aerospace Inc.

Skurka Aerospace Inc., a subsidiary of TransDigm Group Incorporated based in Camarillo, California, manufactures and supplies specialized aerospace electromechanical components to U.S. defense agencies as a prime contractor on over 96% of its federal awards, competing full-and-open across motor and bearing component procurement and repair services without set-aside designations.

Skurka Aerospace operates as a manufacturer of direct current motors, AC motors, motor stators, rotors, armatures, electrical assemblies, bearings, actuators, brushes, springs, and related aerospace hardware, predominantly serving defense logistics and sustainment requirements. Recent representative prime work includes a $3.6 million Defense Logistics Agency Land and Maritime definitive contract (awarded September 2024) for direct current motors with a delivery schedule through December 2026, a $1.77 million TACOM Life Cycle Management Command definitive contract (awarded July 2025) for 35 AC motors with 35 option units for the M230 Automatic Gun system, and a $696,240 Naval Supply Systems Command definitive contract (awarded June 2024) for 20 motor starters. Skurka also holds a major $21.29 million indefinite delivery contract with Army Materiel Command's TACOM Life Cycle Management Command (awarded February 2024, running through February 2027) that has already obligated $8.4 million through two delivery orders totaling aircraft components and related systems. The company maintains a $14.17 million IDC with TACOM for M242 direct current motor repairs and a $2.64 million Defense Logistics Agency Land and Maritime IDC for direct current motors and electrical end bells (awarded May 2022, extended through May 2024). A smaller $150,000 blanket purchase agreement with Air Combat Command (awarded September 2023) covers HH-60 booster motor repair services through September 2028.

Customer concentration is split between high-volume, lower-dollar Naval and DLA Aviation procurement and strategic higher-value Army Materiel Command contracts. The top five customer agencies account for about 59% of awards by count but dominate differently by dollar value: Army Materiel Command's Contracting Command Detroit Arsenal and TACOM Life Cycle Management Command together represent $120.5 million of the vendor's $190.8 million combined potential value (63%), while Defense Logistics Agency Land and Maritime, DLA Aviation, and Naval Supply Systems Command together represent $57.9 million across 435 awards. This divergence reflects Skurka's role as both a high-frequency component supplier to logistics distribution networks and a strategic repair and systems supplier to Army programs.

Skurka places the majority of its prime work through established single-award indefinite delivery contracts rather than GWACs or multi-award vehicles. The top parent vehicles are all Navy and DLA IDCs and basic ordering agreements, including a Naval Supply Systems Command Indefinite Delivery Contract (N0010404GA302) with 47 task orders totaling $507 thousand, a Naval Basic Ordering Agreement (N0010410GA106) with 22 task orders for $824 thousand, and another Naval BOA (N0010415GA107) with 17 task orders for $717 thousand. These vehicles reflect Skurka's embedded position in Navy supply chains for recurring motor and component procurement.

Activity has remained steady to declining in recent years—45 awards in 2022 growing to 66 in 2024, then declining to 36 in 2025 and only 5 to date in 2026—with 10 awards (combined potential value $9.3 million) facing recompete within the next twenty-four months. The company's award portfolio is heavily concentrated in motor manufacturing and bearing components; the top five NAICS categories account for 412 of 1,060 total awards, with Motor and Generator Manufacturing (201 awards) and Other Electronic Component Manufacturing (73 awards) dominating, and the top PSC code, Motors, Electrical (548 awards), representing more than half the prime footprint.

In its subcontractor role (4% of awards), Skurka supplies motors, actuators, and related electromechanical components to major defense primes including Northrop Grumman Systems Corporation (XM914E1 cannon motor production and spare parts kits), BAE Systems Land & Armaments (Bradley A4 vehicle motors and electromechanical systems), General Dynamics-Ots (guided missile director and motor overhaul), The Boeing Company (Post Production Support Services for Saudi Arabia Ministry of National Guard aircraft), and Honeywell International (stepping motor assemblies). These subcontracts represent ongoing component and repair support work rather than systems integration; sub awards carry significantly lower individual values than the company's prime motor and repair contracts.

Skurka Aerospace operates without SBA set-aside certifications and competes exclusively in full-and-open procurements, positioning itself as a large business in the commercial aerospace component supply market where technical approval as an original equipment manufacturer distributor and specialized repair capability drive award selection over price. The company's parent, TransDigm Group, is a diversified aerospace and defense manufacturer, and Skurka's business development reflects TransDigm's vertical integration strategy for critical component supply across multiple military platforms.
