Starwin Industries, LLC

Starwin Industries, LLC, a small business composite and precision-machining manufacturer based in Dayton (with operations in Centerville and Kettering), Ohio, supplies aerospace and defense components to the Department of Defense as a prime contractor on firm fixed-price purchase orders and delivery orders, competing full-and-open with no set-aside footprint in recent work and no subcontractor involvement. The company holds six active indefinite delivery contracts with the Navy and Defense Logistics Agency totaling approximately $40 million in ceiling value, including a $30 million single-award IDC with Naval Sea Systems Command for machine shop services awarded April 2024, and single-award DLA vehicles at $2.27 million (Land and Maritime radomes and covers) and $2 million (Aviation radomes), both expiring in 2027 and 2028 respectively.

Starwin's capability footprint centers narrowly on composite-manufactured and precision-machined aerospace defense components: radomes (antenna protective covers), launcher cell covers, crushable elements, antenna covers, and custom machined parts for advanced military platforms. Representative recent work includes a $281 thousand DLA Aviation purchase order for 25 radome units (February 2026), a $441 thousand DLA Land and Maritime small-business-set-aside order for radome-polarizer components (February 2026), a $335.1 thousand order for 283 radome units (July 2025), a $450 thousand DLA Aviation delivery order for radomes (February 2024), and a $235.8 thousand Naval Sea Systems Command order for launcher cell covers (September 2022). Individual delivery order values range from approximately $1 thousand to $450 thousand, with the vast majority under $100 thousand.

Customer concentration is extreme and Defense Logistics Agency-anchored. DLA Land and Maritime and DLA Aviation together account for 88% of the award count (850 orders) and 65.3 million dollars combined potential value across the top five customers by count. By dollar value, the top five agencies comprise 92% of combined potential: Naval Sea Systems Command leads with $85.4 million across 18 awards (the $30 million IDC plus task orders and related deliveries); DLA Land and Maritime follows with $36.8 million across 622 awards; Naval Air Systems Command carries $35.5 million on 9 awards; Air Force Materiel Command Ogden Air Logistics Complex holds $28.7 million on 2 awards (a $28.66 million IDC for F-16 radomes); and DLA Aviation rounds out the set with $28.5 million on 228 awards. The portfolio spans 20 distinct federal agencies but operates almost entirely within the Navy and DLA ecosystem for defense component supply.

Starwin holds five named indefinite delivery vehicles across the DLA and Navy with 175 task orders yielding $1.6 million combined potential value: Indefinite Delivery Contract SPE7MX14D0117 (75 task orders, $1.6 million), Indefinite Delivery Contract SPE7MX19D0044 (52 task orders, $1.6 million), Indefinite Delivery Contract N0016411DWS51 (17 task orders, $1.3 million), Indefinite Delivery Contract SPE4A718D0245 (16 task orders, $1 million), and Indefinite Delivery Contract SPM92005D7765 (15 task orders, $700 thousand). Work is performed exclusively at the contractor's Centerville or Kettering facility; no performance locations outside Ohio appear in the recent record.

Award activity shows material decline. The vendor received 46 orders in 2022, 30 in 2023, 13 in 2024, 14 in 2025, and 7 through July 2026 — a downward trend across a five-year window. Only 5 awards (combined potential value $1 million) reach ultimate completion in the next twenty-four months, signaling minimal near-term recompete exposure; however, the declining pace suggests either contract consolidation under the large IDVs or reduced buying appetite from the historical customer base.

Starwin competes full-and-open without formal set-aside positioning, though recent small-business-set-aside orders appear in the award stream (notably a February 2026 DLA Land and Maritime radome-polarizer award designated Total Small Business). The company's NAICS footprint centers on Radio and Television Broadcasting and Wireless Communications Equipment Manufacturing (610 awards, reflecting radome classification), with secondary categories including Other Aircraft Parts and Auxiliary Equipment Manufacturing (175 awards), All Other Miscellaneous Manufacturing (107 awards), and Machine Shops (27 awards). PSC coding aligns tightly: Antennas, Waveguides, and Related Equipment (844 awards) dominates, followed by Airframe Structural Components (173 awards) and Launchers, Guided Missile (60 awards). The portfolio is vertically narrow — composite antenna covers and structural defense components for Navy and Air Force platforms such as the EA-18G Growler, P-8A maritime patrol aircraft, and F-16 systems — with no diversity into services, IT, or non-defense sectors.
