Tabet Manufacturing Company, Inc.

Tabet Manufacturing Company, Inc., doing business as Tabet Manufacturing Co Inc., is a Norfolk, Virginia-based small business manufacturer that supplies electrical components, cable assemblies, wiring harnesses, and custom metal fabrication to the Department of Defense as a prime contractor on 93 percent of its recent awards and as a subcontractor to major defense primes on the remainder. The company does not hold an SBA set-aside designation and competes predominantly full-and-open across its prime footprint, though it has won several Total Small Business set-aside orders under the Defense Logistics Agency and Army Communications-Electronics Command.

Tabet's customer concentration is overwhelmingly concentrated with DLA Land and Maritime, which accounts for 678 awards carrying $829.8 million in combined potential value—a dominant 92 percent of the vendor's prime dollar volume. DLA Aviation ranks second with 299 awards at $9.5 million combined potential value, followed at significant distance by the Naval Sea Systems Command (117 awards, $2.1 million), Department of the Navy Naval Supply Systems Command (44 awards, $11.4 million), and Army Materiel Command Communications-Electronics Command (35 awards, $35 million). The concentration reflects Tabet's core position as a component supplier for DLA's logistics distribution network; roughly 82 percent of all awards flow to these five agencies. Recent representative work includes a $318,750 purchase order from DLA Land and Maritime for 75 permanent loudspeakers (February 2026), a $144,506 definitive contract from Naval Information Warfare Systems Command for on-board repair parts—electrical and electronic components for naval facilities (March 2026), and a $589,923 delivery order from Army CECOM for interconnection equipment under the Interconnection Equipment Contract (September 2024).

Tabet holds positions on multiple indefinite delivery vehicles anchoring its task-order flow. The Interconnection Equipment Contract with Army CECOM carries 95 task orders worth $25.4 million combined potential value and procures welding, electrical harness fabrication, cable assembly fabrication, and mechanical component fabrication. A $21 million multiple-award IDC with Army CECOM awarded September 2025 (Total Small Business set-aside, completion September 2030) tasks Tabet with fabrication services at Tobyhanna Army Depot and Norfolk with individual task-order caps at $750,000. DLA vehicles including indefinite delivery contract SPE4AX21D0011 carry 168 task orders at $1.9 million combined value. DLA Land and Maritime also awarded a single-award $250,000 IDC for permanent loudspeakers (ceiling through July 2030, awarded July 2025) and previously held a $250,000 single-award IDC for loudspeakers (completed February 2024). These vehicles establish Tabet as a standing supplier for component and assembly work across defense logistics and communications infrastructure.

In its subcontractor role, Tabet supplies electrical equipment, metal fabrication, and assembly work to Science Applications International Corporation on multiple defense IT and naval platform programs, including the ND-01 PMW 770 and PMW 160 CSRR, Modern Vehicle Fielding integration, and electrical equipment support contracts. The vendor also subcontracts to Huntington Ingalls on CVN-class carrier construction and refueling overhaul projects, delivering steel fabrication and assembly components. Tabet subcontracted to General Dynamics Information Technology for VACM power supply products (June 2025).

Activity has remained stable at roughly 92–123 awards per year across 2022–2025, declining to 11 awards year-to-date in 2026 (a partial-year snapshot). Eight awards with ultimate completion within the next twenty-four months carry $9.9 million combined potential value, presenting limited recompete exposure. The vendor's award portfolio spans electrical components (264 awards under NAICS 334419—Other Electronic Component Manufacturing), wiring and switches (185 and 123 awards respectively under current-carrying wiring and switch PSCs), and audio/video equipment (128 awards, NAICS 334310). Tabet was founded in 2001 and has executed 1,461 federal awards across seventeen agencies, with $900.3 million combined potential value and $69.6 million obligated to date. Roughly 8 percent of awards have been obligated, consistent with the vendor's role issuing task orders across large, multi-year IDC vehicles where drawdown occurs incrementally.
