Twisted Industries, Inc.

Twisted Industries, Inc., a Subchapter S Corporation based in Merritt Island, Florida, manufactures precision defense components and military hardware as a prime contractor almost exclusively for the Defense Logistics Agency (DLA) Land and Maritime under small-business set-aside vehicles. The company operates entirely in the prime role, holding multiple single-award Indefinite Delivery Contracts with DLA and competing predominantly under Total Small Business and non-set-aside designations on individual purchase orders and delivery orders.

Twisted Industries specializes in small arms and ordnance manufacturing — a category representing 89% of its 238 awards across a cumulative potential value of $3.7 million. Representative work includes a $318,593 total-small-business set-aside purchase order (April 2024) for 3,949 units of staff section cleaning services to the DLA Distribution Center in San Joaquin; a $36,161 total-small-business award (April 2025) for 412 units of staff section weldment; an $18,043 total-small-business contract (October 2024) for flash suppressors; and recurring purchase orders and delivery orders for individual components such as swivel mounts ($19,790, $17,531), retainer assemblies, firing pins, ejection chutes, buttstock parts, and cannon recoil guides. The product portfolio spans small arms components, weapon system parts, mounting hardware, and facility maintenance services.

Customer concentration is extreme: DLA Land and Maritime accounts for 236 of 238 awards (99% coverage) worth $3.6 million combined potential value; the remaining two awards ($9 thousand) come from DLA Troop Support Construction and Equipment. The vendor has no subcontract footprint and generates no revenue from other federal agencies.

Twisted Industries holds four named single-award Indefinite Delivery Contracts with DLA Land and Maritime, each carrying $250,000 ceiling values. The top three vehicles by task-order volume are IDC SPE7L421D60BE (7 task orders, $29 thousand), IDC SPE7L121D5149 (4 task orders, $46 thousand for swivel mounts), and IDC SPE7L124D60NP (1 task order, $3 thousand). These IDCs enable recurring procurement of mounting hardware, cleaning services, retainer assemblies, and miscellaneous defense components without repeated competitive solicitations.

Activity has grown modestly — from 14 awards in 2022 to a peak of 25 in 2024 — before slowing to 16 in 2025 and 9 year-to-date through March 2026. Ten awards totaling $114 thousand face ultimate completion inside the next twenty-four months, creating recompete exposure for the vendor and recompete opportunity for competitors. The average award value is approximately $15,500, reflecting DLA's purchase-order model for small manufactured components and services. DLA's broad acquisition footprint across small arms and ordnance components — evidenced by the top five PSC codes spanning guns from 30mm through 300mm caliber — anchors Twisted Industries' narrow customer concentration and specialized manufacturing posture.
