About the company
Universal Spartan LLC, doing business as Universal Spartan, is a Service-Disabled Veteran-Owned Small Business (SDVOSB) and SBA-certified 8(a) program participant based in Vine Grove, Kentucky, that supplies tactical equipment, military hardware, and specialized components to federal agencies as a prime contractor across 100% of its awards. Universal Spartan is minority-owned and Hispanic-American owned, operating as a sole proprietorship limited liability company, and competes predominantly under SDVOSB and 8(a) set-asides, though it also wins full-and-open competitive awards.
The vendor's capability footprint is dominated by small arms and ordnance manufacturing, components, and tactical equipment. Universal Spartan delivers combat knives (the largest single product category), survival knives, holsters, pistol holsters, body armor, ballistic panels, vehicle seat frames and cushions, vehicle body side racks, box accessories storage, electro-mechanical actuators, o-rings, rescue equipment, evacuation chairs, and specialized military components sourced from established manufacturers. Representative prime awards include a $533,027.56 definitive contract from Customs and Border Protection for replacement windows at Grand Forks NASOC Hangars (September 2026), a $2,175,657.80 purchase order from CBP for preventive maintenance of security systems through September 2030, a $733,082.92 8(a) sole-source purchase order from Defense Logistics Agency Land and Maritime for vehicle door parts kits (September 2024), a $5,078,446.92 8(a) sole-source IDIQ from DLA Land and Maritime for vehicle body side racks running through April 2030, and a $951,250 BPA from Air Education and Training Command for various military uniforms through June 2028.
Customer concentration is severe and highly specialized. DLA Land and Maritime dominates the portfolio, accounting for 259 awards (68% of the total) worth $22.8 million in combined potential value (72% of the portfolio's total value). When DLA's three components (Land and Maritime, Aviation, and Troop Support Construction and Equipment) are aggregated, they represent 291 awards (76% of volume) and approximately 75% of potential value. Other material customers include Department of Homeland Security Customs and Border Protection (5 awards, $2.8 million), the Department of Veterans Affairs (multiple service networks across medical equipment and supplies), Department of the Army National Guard units, GSA Federal Acquisition Service (15 task orders on Multiple Award Schedule), and scattered awards from Department of State, Department of Justice Bureau of Prisons, Federal Emergency Management Agency, and Transportation Security Administration. The vendor serves 52 distinct federal agencies, but the top five account for 87% of potential value, creating high customer concentration risk.
Universal Spartan holds multiple indefinite delivery contracts with DLA Land and Maritime, each typically valued at $250,000 to $5.1 million and set aside for SDVOSB or 8(a) competition. Named parent vehicles include single-award IDIQs for combat knives, pistol holsters, vehicle body side racks, vehicle seat frames, box accessories storage, o-rings, magazine cartridges, electro-mechanical actuators, buttstock assemblies, and mounting equipment. The vendor also maintains a position on GSA's Multiple Award Schedule (15 task orders, $707 thousand combined value) and multiple BPAs with federal agencies for uniforms, law enforcement equipment, and specialized tactical supplies. Task order activity across parent vehicles ranges from $674,000 to $96,000 combined potential value per vehicle.
Activity has remained relatively stable to slightly declining over the past five years—62 awards in 2022, 59 in 2023, 58 in 2024, and 64 in 2025, with 16 awards already awarded in 2026 (as of October 15). The recompete cliff in the next twenty-four months exposes the vendor to loss of six awards with combined potential value of $858,000, all drawing from DLA Land and Maritime IDIQs set to expire or reach ceiling values. Universal Spartan does not operate as a subcontractor; it is 100% prime contractor positioned on government-wide acquisition vehicles and agency-specific IDIQs where it holds incumbent positions.
The vendor's product portfolio is characterized by NAICS concentration: Small Arms, Ordnance, and Ordnance Accessories Manufacturing accounts for 104 awards, followed by Metal Kitchen Cookware and Cutlery Manufacturing (53 awards), and various fabricated metal and vehicle component categories. PSC coding reflects ordnance and weapons (157 awards combined across 10Mm guns and miscellaneous weapons codes) and vehicular components (59 awards). Universal Spartan sources products through established supply relationships and maintains manufacturing or distribution capability in Vine Grove, Kentucky and Athens, Alabama. The vendor explicitly competes in Total Small Business, SDVOSB, and 8(a) set-asides with regularity, and its 8(a) certification is valid through April 29, 2030. Recent CBP work represents entry into non-DLA federal customer segments; the Customs and Border Protection awards for windows and security system maintenance mark geographic and facility-focused diversification from the vendor's historical concentration in tactical equipment and components procurement.
