United Western Technologies Corp.

United Western Technologies Corp., doing business as Uniwest, manufactures nondestructive inspection equipment and services for aerospace and aviation maintenance, operating primarily as a prime contractor (98% of recent awards) to Department of Defense agencies on purchase orders and blanket purchase agreements with no predominant set-aside posture. Uniwest is a for-profit Subchapter S corporation headquartered in Kennewick, Washington, specializing in eddy current probes, reference standards, metal flaw detectors, cable assemblies, and related testing systems under primary NAICS 334519 (measuring and controlling device manufacturing) and PSC 66 (Physical Properties Testing and Inspection equipment).

Customer concentration is extreme and narrow. The Defense Logistics Agency Aviation anchors the footprint with 427 awards valued at $4.1 million combined potential value—71% of all awards and 31% of dollars across the portfolio. The Department of the Air Force Materiel Command's Oklahoma City Air Logistics Complex represents 21 awards worth $3.7 million, and the Department of the Navy's Naval Air Systems Command holds 13 awards worth $2.4 million. Together, these three customers account for 84% of award count and 87% of combined potential value. Uniwest's relationship with the Air Force's Oklahoma City facility is anchored by a single-award Blanket Purchase Agreement valued at $538,548 through August 2027 (established August 2022), which has generated ten task orders worth $1.6 million to date, with three set-aside for small businesses totaling $326,390. Recent prime work includes a $2.2 million sole-source Navy contract (August 2023) to upgrade four EC2000 Eddy Current Inspection Systems at Fleet Readiness Center Southeast in Jacksonville, Florida, a $143,750 DLA Aviation purchase order (August 2025) for 46 metal flaw detectors, and a $59,541.65 Air Force purchase order (December 2025) for an Advanced Eddy Current Instrument EVI Kit at Tinker Air Force Base.

Uniwest's primary vehicles are Blanket Purchase Agreements and Indefinite Delivery Contracts issued by DLA and Air Force components rather than government-wide acquisition vehicles. The FA812522A0005 BPA carries ten task orders worth $1.6 million. A newly awarded single-award IDC from DLA Aviation (December 2025) carries a $350,000 ceiling through December 2026 for reference standards under NSN 6635015124952, set aside for small business. Activity has fluctuated—45 awards in 2022, declining to 27 in 2023, then stabilizing at 31 in 2024 and recovering to 50 in 2025—with only 16 awards recorded in 2026 year-to-date. Four awards totaling $1.2 million face ultimate completion within the next twenty-four months and represent recompete exposure.

Uniwest operates predominantly as a prime supplier. Subcontract work is sparse and recent: the company delivered T-38 flight loads data recording inspection kits to Southwest Research Institute (March 2025), SAOC airframe and electrical testing kits to Sierra Nevada Company (June 2025), and lab supplies supporting SABR-C and NDIO programs to the University of Dayton (June 2024). It also subcontracts to RTX Corporation and ASRC Federal Facilities Logistics on eddy current and depot activation work. These engagements are secondary to Uniwest's core prime footprint supplying specialized nondestructive testing equipment directly to military aviation maintenance operations across DLA Aviation, Air Force logistics complexes, and Naval Air Systems Command. The company's narrow customer base and product specialization—eddy current probes and reference standards dominate 71% of its award history—position it as a single-source or sole-source supplier to its primary DoD customers, particularly for original equipment manufacturer inspection systems and replacement components for aircraft maintenance programs.
