Strategic Logistic Defense Services, LLC

Strategic Logistic Defense Services, LLC, a woman-owned and veteran-owned small business based in Oceanside, California, procures specialized military equipment and components for Department of Defense agencies as a prime contractor on small-business-set-aside purchase orders (13% of recent awards) and as a subcontractor supplying operational equipment and training systems (87% of recent awards). The company is structured as a Subchapter S corporation and competes predominantly under total small business set-asides on its prime awards.

The vendor's prime capability footprint centers on procurement of RF components, antenna kits, avionics systems, and specialized military equipment. Representative prime awards include a $505,175.52 total small business purchase order from the Marine Corps (awarded September 25, 2024, ultimate completion October 30, 2024) for antenna kits and components supporting United States Special Operations Command; a $211,369.98 total small business purchase order from the Army Communications Electronics Command (awarded July 14, 2026) for a vertical lift module with performance completion targeted for November 3, 2026; and a $40,806.40 total small business purchase order from the Air Force's Ogden Air Logistics Complex (awarded June 22, 2026) for a Joint Modernization Handheld GPS device supporting M-code capability testing and integration for the F-15, F-16, F/A-18, and JDAM programs.

Customer concentration is heavily concentrated on Department of Defense logistics and operations entities. The Defense Logistics Agency Troop Support Construction and Equipment accounts for 25 of 30 total awards (83% by count); the Marine Corps and Army each hold 1 to 2 awards, with the Navy and Air Force rounding out the customer set. In terms of combined potential value, the Marine Corps leads with $602 thousand across two awards, followed by the Army and Air Force at $211 thousand and $41 thousand respectively. The divergence between count and dollars reflects Strategic Logistic Defense Services' heavy subcontract footprint under DLA supply vehicles — multiple small supply calls versus fewer but higher-value prime procurements.

Subcontract work places the vendor under several logistics and supply primes. Strategic Logistic Defense Services supplies operational equipment and maintenance, repair, and operations (MRO) items under the Defense Logistics Agency's Special Operations Equipment — Tailored Logistics Support vehicle (7 task orders) and the 6th Generation Fire and Emergency Services Equipment Tailored Logistics Support vehicle (2 task orders). The vendor also delivers production and integration services as a subcontractor to Tidewater Distributors LLC on the Emergency Response Tactical Mobility Suite and Extremity Simulation Training Suite; provides software services as a sub to Amentum Services, Inc. on Indo-Pacific Command Technology Experimentation, Analysis, and Management Services (ITEAMS); and supplies deployable security equipment under Atlantic Diving Supply, Inc. for USSOCOM application.

Activity has accelerated sharply — two prime awards in 2024, four in 2025, and twenty-four in 2026 — driven primarily by supply and sub-award volume under DLA vehicles. Combined dollars obligated ($9.9 million) substantially exceed combined potential value ($854 thousand), indicating that many awards have been executed and invoiced near or above ceiling. Two awards (combined potential value $252 thousand) reach ultimate completion within the next twenty-four months, presenting limited near-term recompete exposure for the vendor but signaling potential contract continuity risk if DLA supply task orders do not renew or expand.
