Aerocontrolex Group, Inc.

Aerocontrolex Group, Inc., a subsidiary of TransDigm Group Incorporated, manufactures highly engineered aerospace and defense mechanical, electrical, and electro-hydro-mechanical components and supplies them to the Defense Logistics Agency and major defense primes as a primary contractor, competing full-and-open with no set-aside designations. Based in South Euclid, Ohio, with a secondary facility in Painesville, Aerocontrolex is a for-profit manufacturer registered as a federal contractor since 2002, operating primarily under NAICS categories including Turbine and Turbine Generator Set Units Manufacturing and Other Aircraft Parts and Auxiliary Equipment Manufacturing.

Aerocontrolex's capability footprint centers on the design and fabrication of valves (pressure relief, regulating, check, solenoid, isolation, lift-check), gears and gearshafts (spur, idler, eccentric), pump assemblies and rotors, housings, pressure switches, governors, cylinder actuators, dehydration kits, connectors and couplings, springs, bearings, and seals—all engineered to military specifications for aircraft, rotorcraft, missile systems, and ground vehicle platforms. Concrete recent work includes a $638,360 definitive contract from the Defense Logistics Agency Land and Maritime (awarded March 24, 2026) for 20 units of fluid pressure regulating valves; a $1.31 million delivery order from the Ogden Air Logistics Complex (February 9, 2026) for oil housing section and pump housing components; and a $689,955 purchase order from DLA Land and Maritime (October 24, 2025) for 170 units of check valves. The company's work spans both component-level repair parts (single-digit and low five-figure orders) and larger production runs ($500,000 to $1.3 million).

Customer concentration is extreme: the Defense Logistics Agency Aviation commands 796 awards valued at $240.9 million combined potential value (approximately 71% of the total), while DLA Land and Maritime accounts for 415 awards and $40.2 million. Together, DLA Aviation and DLA Land and Maritime represent roughly 87% of all awards and over 73% of combined potential value. The Air Force's Ogden Air Logistics Complex, the Army Aviation and Missile Life Cycle Management Command, and the Naval Supply Systems Command round out a smaller secondary tier. This concentration reflects Aerocontrolex's positioning as a legacy DLA supplier for high-velocity consumable spares.

Aerocontrolex operates under a single-award Indefinite Delivery Contract (SPE4AX18D9442) with DLA Aviation and DLA Land and Maritime, which has anchored 619 task orders worth $92.5 million combined potential value and dominates the parent vehicle footprint. Smaller vehicles include N0038319DPL01 (nine task orders, $2.2 million combined potential value) with Naval Supply Systems Command and a handful of other smaller IDCs. The contractor places task orders and purchase orders against these vehicles continuously; recent activity shows 36 awards across 2022–2026, with 2023 recording peak volume at 151 awards and 2024–2025 declining to 60 and 74 awards respectively.

Subcontract work represents only 3% of awards by count (49 of 1,811), but is decision-relevant: Aerocontrolex subcontracts to Boeing (control assemblies, cable and indicator components for F-15EX and Apache programs, CH-47F sustainment), General Dynamics Land Systems (M1 Abrams tank family components including actuators and control assemblies), and Sikorsky Aircraft (fasteners, grips, and aircraft parts for rotorcraft). These primes source components from Aerocontrolex for major production and sustainment programs, anchoring long-term demand.

Corporate structure places Aerocontrolex as a wholly owned subsidiary of TransDigm Group Incorporated, a non-profit parent entity and major diversified aerospace manufacturer. The parent's federal contract footprint is substantially larger (1,811 total awards across both entities combined in the source data, though the parent itself carries additional awards not detailed here). TransDigm's ownership provides access to capital and integrates Aerocontrolex into a tier-1 supplier ecosystem serving Boeing, Lockheed Martin, and other major primes.

Activity trajectory shows no set-aside posture—all recent awards carry "No Set-Aside Used" designations across full-and-open competitive or sole-source authority vehicles. Recompete risk is modest: 36 awards (combined potential value $17.4 million) reach ultimate completion inside the next twenty-four months. Aerocontrolex has established itself as DLA's continuity supplier for standard mil-spec mechanical and valve components, with deep repetitive task order volume under the primary IDC vehicle. Competitive exposure is rooted in price, delivery performance, source control, and technical qualification—not in set-aside vulnerability.
