About the company
Southern Automotive Wholesalers, Inc., a Pontiac, Michigan-based Subchapter S Corporation and small business manufacturer, supplies commercial off-the-shelf automotive hardware and vehicular components to the Defense Logistics Agency as a prime contractor (100% of awards) on a high-volume, transactional basis, operating entirely without subcontracting engagement. The vendor competes in full-and-open procurements, though approximately 29 percent of recent awards carry Total Small Business set-asides; the company holds no 8(a), HUBZone, SDVOSB, WOSB, or other federal socioeconomic designations.
Southern Automotive Wholesalers' federal footprint centers on fasteners, filters, seals, engine and drivetrain components, electrical system parts, and mechanical hardware for military vehicles, maritime vessels, and aviation platforms. Recent representative work includes a $320,933 purchase order from DLA Land and Maritime for resilient general-purpose mounts (March 2026), a $273,910 delivery order from Army Contracting Command Warren for electrical engine starters (March 2026), a $135,344 purchase order from DLA Land and Maritime for fuel-feeding pump equipment delivered to DLA Distribution San Joaquin (July 2026), and a $90,048 purchase order from DLA Land and Maritime for solenoid valves under Total Small Business set-aside (March 2026). The vendor also holds work from Naval Supply Systems Command, including a $40,223 purchase order for diesel engine governors (April 2026) and a $27,470 purchase order for fuel injection pumps with performance in Italy (April 2026).
Customer concentration is extreme: DLA Land and Maritime accounts for 4,967 awards (56% of the portfolio) worth $122.1 million combined potential value, and DLA Aviation accounts for 2,138 awards (24%) worth $38.8 million. Together, these two DLA components represent 80% of all awards and 161.4 million dollars, or 73.7% of combined potential value. A distant third customer, Army Materiel Command Contracting Command Detroit Arsenal, holds 48 awards worth $14.9 million. The top five customers account for 96% of recent awards. This concentration reflects the vendor's role as a high-volume supplier of consumable and replacement components through Defense Logistics Agency distribution networks serving Continental United States and overseas depots.
Southern Automotive Wholesalers holds twelve single-award indefinite-delivery contracts with DLA, with ceilings ranging from $350,000 to $900,000 and completion dates extending from April 2027 to June 2031. The largest IDIQs include a $900,000 ceiling DLA Aviation contract (April 2026–April 2031) and multiple $350,000-ceiling IDIQs across Land and Maritime and Aviation spanning electrical components, fuel injection equipment, mounts, solenoid valves, filters, and drivetrain parts. The vendor's top five IDIQs carry 57, 35, 35, 29, and 21 task orders respectively, demonstrating consistent order flow against standing vehicles. Awards per year declined from 945 in 2023 to 296 in 2026 (calendar year 2026 data through mid-July), though year-to-date activity through February 2026 remained steady at prior-year pace. Sixty-seven awards (combined potential value $6.6 million) reach ultimate completion within the next twenty-four months and face recompete risk.
The vendor's product and service footprint is dominated by manufacturing categories: Bolt, Nut, Screw, Rivet, and Washer Manufacturing (754 awards), Small Arms and Ordnance Accessories (632 awards), Other Engine Equipment Manufacturing (563 awards), Motor Vehicle Electrical and Electronic Equipment (548 awards), and Gasket, Packing, and Sealing Device Manufacturing (542 awards). The top five NAICS codes account for 3,459 awards—39% of the portfolio—reflecting the vendor's deep specialization in discrete hardware components and fluid-handling systems. By Product Service Code, Engine Electrical System Components Non-Aircraft (1,350 awards) dominates, followed by Packing and Gasket Materials (514 awards) and Engine Air and Oil Filters (377 awards). Southern Automotive Wholesalers has maintained continuous SAM.gov registration since 2001, with 8,824 total awards and $218.9 million combined potential value across its footprint. The vendor invoiced $111.2 million (51% of potential value) across the award portfolio, indicating significant historical execution.
