ST. Helen Auto & Hardware Inc.

ST. Helen Auto & Hardware Inc., a self-certified small disadvantaged business based in Mesa, Arizona, supplies mechanical and electrical components to the Department of Defense as a prime contractor on purchase orders, competing under both Total Small Business set-asides and full-and-open designations. The vendor operates as a for-profit corporation and has received 30 prime purchase orders totaling $255 thousand in combined potential value since January 2026.

The vendor's capability portfolio consists of aerospace and defense-grade mechanical components and electrical hardware sourced through simplified acquisition and supply contracts. Representative work includes a $43.4 thousand Total Small Business purchase order from the Army Joint Munitions Command for a horizontal band saw (February 2026), a $31.96 thousand full-and-open order from the Defense Logistics Agency Aviation for a fuel flow sensor (February 2026), a $29.2 thousand Total Small Business order from DLA Land and Maritime for ball valves (May 2026), and a $27 thousand Total Small Business order from DLA Land and Maritime for a power transformer (July 2026). The vendor's procurement activity spans bearings (plain, sleeve, and antifriction variants), valves (ball, solenoid, discharge, fuel pressurizing), switches and push buttons, electrical connectors and capacitors, adapter assemblies, fuel sensors, and fabricated metal items — all delivered on firm fixed-price terms.

Customer concentration is tightly held within the Defense Logistics Agency. DLA Land and Maritime commands 16 awards valued at $123 thousand (covering 100% of the source's award count), while DLA Aviation holds 12 awards valued at $88 thousand. The Department of the Army Materiel Command's Joint Munitions Command and DLA Troop Support Construction and Equipment account for the remaining dollar volume. All 30 awards are prime purchase orders; the vendor carries no subcontract footprint in the source data. Performance occurs exclusively in Mesa, Arizona, with ultimate completion dates scattered through December 2026 and January 2027. Five awards totaling $69 thousand reach completion within the next twenty-four months and face recompete risk. The vendor's recent trajectory reflects activity concentrated in the first seven months of 2026 with no awards visible in the source beyond July 2026.
