893 Mfg, LLC

893 Mfg, LLC, doing business as UWD Manufacturing Inc., is a small business Subchapter S corporation that supplies military-grade components and spare parts to the Defense Logistics Agency as a prime contractor on a 100% prime footprint—905 purchase orders, delivery orders, and indefinite delivery contracts spanning over four decades, with no subcontract exposure. The company, headquartered in Morristown, New Jersey, specializes in lead storage batteries, gaskets, seals, electrical leads, gage rods, and hardware components for aviation and land-based weapon systems, and operates under full-and-open competition with no set-aside designations across the vast majority of its awards; one small business set-aside single-award IDC for gasket supply runs through September 2025.

The customer concentration is absolute within the Defense Logistics Agency. The top five DLA components account for 90% of awards: DLA Aviation (303 awards, $4 million combined potential value), DLA Land and Maritime (226 awards, $3.3 million), DLA Troop Support Construction and Equipment (154 awards, $2.9 million), DLA Troop Support Hardware (87 awards, $5.8 million), and DLA general (44 awards). Combined potential value across all awards is $17.5 million with $9 million obligated to date. The two customer rankings diverge meaningfully—by potential value, DLA Troop Support Hardware leads at $5.8 million despite placing fewer orders than DLA Aviation, signaling larger unit awards in hardware categories. Recent representative work includes a $16,071.76 firm fixed-price purchase order from DLA Construction and Equipment (April 2026) for vehicle cargo tie-down equipment; a $23,324.21 delivery order from DLA Land and Maritime (December 2024) for gasket components under a total small business set-aside IDC; and a $250,000 single-award indefinite delivery contract with DLA Aviation for lead storage batteries awarded March 2026 with deliveries through March 2027 to CONUS and OCONUS DLA depots.

893 Mfg holds two active IDCs: a $250,000 ceiling single-award contract with DLA Land and Maritime (awarded September 2024, set-aside for total small business, through September 2025) for gaskets, which has generated two delivery orders to date ($23,324.21 and $8,994.79); and a $250,000 ceiling single-award contract with DLA Aviation (awarded March 2026, no set-aside, through March 2027) for lead storage batteries. The company's five largest parent IDC vehicles carry 35 combined task orders and range from $14 thousand to $40 thousand in cumulative potential value. Award activity shows modest recent volume—17 awards in 2021 declining to 3 in 2026 year-to-date—with only one award reaching ultimate completion within the next twenty-four months ($16 thousand potential value), presenting minimal near-term recompete risk. The commodity portfolio clusters in electronic components (121 awards under NAICS 334419), gaskets and sealing devices (112 awards), vehicular lighting (72 awards), and hardware, reflecting the company's role as a transactional supplier of interchangeable military spare parts across multiple weapon systems and equipment classes rather than as a systems integrator or prime platform supplier.
