Vim Industries, LLC

Vim Industries, LLC, an SBA-certified women-owned small business based in Jacksonville, Florida, supplies specialized mechanical, electrical, and electronic components to the Defense Logistics Agency as a prime contractor, operating exclusively under small business set-asides (Total Small Business, Woman-Owned Small Business) and competing primarily on purchase orders and indefinite-delivery contracts. Vim is minority-owned, self-certified as a small disadvantaged business, and classified as an economically disadvantaged woman-owned small business; the company holds no subcontracting relationships and operates 100% as a prime contractor across its federal portfolio.

Vim's capability profile centers on supplying technical components for military vehicle systems, aviation equipment, and general defense logistics. Representative work includes a $424.5 thousand purchase order from Defense Logistics Agency Land and Maritime in October 2023 for 100 connector receptacles; a $339 thousand award from DLA Aviation in December 2025 for 17 phase monitor units (aeronautical instruments); a $204.3 thousand procurement from DLA Construction and Equipment in March 2025 for 600 telephone sets; hub assembly suspension components totaling $77.7 thousand (September 2024); electrical connectors valued at $135.2 thousand (March 2025); and flexible metal conduit supplies ranging from $66.6 thousand to $72 thousand across multiple 2024–2025 awards. Most awards fall between $4 thousand and $100 thousand, with firm fixed-price purchase orders dominating the contract mix alongside recurring indefinite-delivery contracts carrying $250 thousand to $350 thousand ceilings.

Customer concentration is absolute: Defense Logistics Agency Land and Maritime accounts for 62 awards and $4.5 million of the $5.8 million combined potential value portfolio; DLA Aviation holds 21 awards and $890 thousand; DLA Troop Support Construction and Equipment carries 4 awards and $416 thousand. All work flows through Defense Logistics Agency divisions. Vim holds six single-award indefinite-delivery contracts with DLA Land and Maritime, each carrying ceilings of $250 thousand to $350 thousand, with ultimate completion dates ranging from February 2026 through April 2027. These IDCs provide recurring task-order vehicles for brake shoes, spring assembly components, bracket assemblies, vehicular caps, and related motor vehicle parts. Task orders against these IDCs represent pre-negotiated supply relationships rather than competitive re-solicitations.

Activity trajectory shows volatility: twelve awards in 2022, twenty-eight in 2023, five in 2024, thirty in 2025, and eleven awards through April 2026. The 2024 dip followed by 2025 surge reflects DLA's ordering patterns rather than vendor disengagement. Fifteen awards (combined potential value $644 thousand) face ultimate completion within the next twenty-four months, presenting recompete exposure concentrated on brake-shoe, motor-vehicle-parts, and connector-assembly IDCs. Top NAICS categories include Small Arms, Ordnance, and Ordnance Accessories Manufacturing (nine awards); Ball and Roller Bearing Manufacturing (six); Electronic Connector Manufacturing (six); Military Armored Vehicle, Tank, and Tank Component Manufacturing (six); and Current-Carrying Wiring Device Manufacturing (five). Top PSC codes reflect component-level supply: Vehicular Brake, Steering, Axle, Wheel, and Track Components (eight awards); Miscellaneous Vehicular Components (seven); Connectors, Electrical (seven); Guns Through 30mm (six); and Switches (six). Vim's set-aside posture is characteristic of federal component suppliers competing under woman-owned small business and total small business designations; the vendor does not compete in full-and-open procurements beyond occasional noncompetitive awards already won.
