Trijicon, Inc.

Trijicon, Inc., headquartered in Wixom, Michigan, manufactures advanced optical sighting systems and electro-optical equipment for federal military and law enforcement customers as a prime contractor on 436 of 460 recent awards (95% prime, 5% sub). The company competes predominantly full-and-open, with recent small-business set-asides accounting for a minority of work; it is not designated as 8(a), HUBZone, SDVOSB, WOSB, or other SBA category.

Trijicon's concrete capability footprint centers on precision rifle optics, red dot sights, night vision and thermal imaging systems, mounted machine gun optics, crew-served weapons optics, and handgun reflex sights, with recurring work in remanufacture and tritium removal of existing optical systems. Representative prime awards include a $9 million firm fixed-price delivery order from the Marine Corps for Squad Common Optic (SCO) systems (September 2024); a $19.6 million Naval Sea Systems Command delivery order for Mounted Machine Gun Optics (September 2023); a $4.9 million Army TACOM delivery order for bore sight optical systems (November 2023); a $6.2 million Marine Corps remanufacture contract for Rifle Combat Optics (December 2023); and a $2.3 million Army TACOM delivery order for 1,909 bore sight units (February 2024). The company also holds recent single-award IDIQs: a $20.5 million Marine Corps contract (June 2025) for remanufacture and conversion of Rifle Combat Optics A4/M4/M7 systems; a $13.4 million Army contract (November 2023) for bore sight optical systems through 2028; and a $5.1 million Naval Sea Systems Command contract (August 2024) for Handgun Reflex Sight systems. Trijicon competes under an $11 million multiple-award IDIQ (September 2023) reserved for total small-business set-aside, held by the Headquarters Division, for rifle red dot sights and mounts, which has sustained 18 delivery orders including a $1.9 million FBI order (September 2024) for RMR HD red dot sights.

Customer concentration is extreme and heavily military: the top five customers account for 53% of awards by count and 87% by dollar value. The Marine Corps dominates the portfolio with 115 awards valued at $402.9 million—roughly 45% of combined potential value. The Army, through its Acquisition Support Center (PEO Soldier), Materiel Command Picatinny Arsenal, and Materiel Command Detroit Arsenal, accounts for 31 awards totaling $318.2 million. Naval Sea Systems Command anchors $59.6 million across 50 awards. Naval Supply Systems Command carries 29 awards. The FBI Headquarters Division holds 24 awards valued at $15 million. The 62 distinct federal customer agencies served reflects wide military and law enforcement adoption, but the portfolio is not diversified: Marine Corps rifle optics and Army machine gun optics dominate in both dollars and volume.

Trijicon holds multiple active IDIQs and delivery-order vehicles across Army and Navy contracting offices. The company places work under indefinite-delivery contracts issued by the Marine Corps, Army (Warren and Picatinny Arsenal), Naval Sea Systems Command, Army TACOM Life Cycle Management Command, and a civilian-agency Headquarters Division contract. Top parent vehicles by order count include IDIQ N0010403DL006 (26 task orders, $6.2 million), IDIQ M6785405D1061 (24 task orders, $62.9 million), IDIQ 15F06723D0002480 (20 task orders, $3.4 million), IDIQ N0016404D4834 (18 task orders, $6.2 million), and Special Operations Equipment—Tailored Logistics Support (17 task orders). These vehicles span the full spectrum of Trijicon's capability set and provide the contracting infrastructure for recurring task-order placement.

Activity has grown sharply: nine awards in 2022 escalated to 43 in 2024, then declined to 12 in 2025 and 6 in 2026 year-to-date. The recompete exposure in the next twenty-four months is minimal: three awards valued at $446 thousand face ultimate completion within that window, representing negligible portfolio risk. The company's award base is anchored by long-term IDIQ vehicles—particularly the $402.9 million Marine Corps SCO program and the $318.2 million Army optics portfolio—which carry multi-year ordering horizons extending through 2028–2030 and are unlikely to face competitive recompete.

In its subcontractor role, Trijicon supplies optics and sighting systems to Atlantic Diving Supply, Inc., which acts as a prime aggregator for military and special operations customer orders. Subcontract activity has accelerated in 2024, with 18 orders from Atlantic Diving Supply over the preceding twelve months, primarily for ACOG rifle scopes, RMR red dot sights, thermal imaging equipment, and mounted machine gun optics.

Corporate structure includes three named subsidiaries: Trijicon Oasys, LLC; Ameriglo Holdings, LLC (which carries night-sight and handgun-optics capability); and IRD Acquisitions LLC. The parent company operates as a for-profit manufacturer with no tax-exempt status.

Trijicon's federal contracting posture reflects the company's status as the dominant supplier of precision rifle optics to the U.S. military, particularly the Marine Corps and Army. The portfolio is concentrated by customer (Marine Corps + Army = roughly 80% of dollars), by capability category (optical sighting and ranging equipment dominates PSC coding), and by contract vehicle structure (task-order placement against Army and Marine Corps IDIQs with multi-year ceilings). The company competes full-and-open against traditional defense prime contractors and does not rely on small-business set-asides; the single 8(a)-set-aside vehicle it holds is modest in scale and oriented toward civilian-agency red dot procurement. Recompete risk is low given the long-term nature of the underlying IDIQ relationships and the lack of near-term completion dates.
