VTN Manufacturing, Inc.

VTN Manufacturing, Inc., a women-owned small business manufacturer headquartered in San Jose, California, delivers precision metal components and fabrication services to the Department of Defense through direct prime contracts and indefinite delivery vehicles. VTN is a self-certified small disadvantaged business, Asian-Pacific American-owned, Subchapter S corporation classified under NAICS 332710 (Precision Turned Product Manufacturing) and NAICS 332999 (All Other Miscellaneous Fabricated Metal Product Manufacturing), and competes predominantly under total small business set-asides and woman-owned small business designations across its prime contracting footprint.

VTN's federal work centers on precision hardware manufacturing for naval propulsion, ordnance, and aircraft systems. Representative prime awards include a $50 million single-award blanket purchase agreement with the Department of the Navy Naval Sea Systems Command for fabrication and machine shop services running through September 2027, from which task orders supply components such as cartridge heads, diaphragms, igniters, and mounting blocks for submarine and ship systems; a $7.5 million multiple-award blanket purchase agreement with the Department of the Army Materiel Command Contracting Command at Picatinny Arsenal for miscellaneous materiel through December 2027; a $160,135.50 indefinite delivery contract with the Defense Logistics Agency Aviation for lock pin assemblies supporting aircraft maintenance through August 2027; and a $250,000 indefinite delivery contract with DLA Aviation for safety switch shaft components through November 2024. Near-term task-order work includes a $24,255 firm fixed-price purchase order from NASA Shared Services Center (awarded June 2024, completed July 2024) for ground support equipment connectors supporting the Orion Crew Survival Systems project, an $18,912.50 order from NAVSEA (May 2025, due August 2025) for solid-state heating sensor components, and a $99,978 purchase order from Navy NAVSUP Engineering Logistics Office (June 2024, completed September 2024) for custom buoy housings and metal parts.

Navy Sea Systems Command dominates VTN's customer base by potential value. Top customer agencies by combined potential value are the Department of the Navy Naval Sea Systems Command (15 awards, $50.2 million), the Department of the Army Materiel Command Contracting Command at Picatinny (1 award, $7.5 million), the Defense Logistics Agency Aviation (21 awards, $762 thousand), the Department of the Navy Naval Supply Systems Command Engineering Logistics Office (1 award, $100 thousand), and the Defense Logistics Agency Land and Maritime (4 awards, $25 thousand). These five agencies represent 100% of VTN's combined potential value across 42 of 45 awards. The agency-count ranking shows substantial volume concentration with DLA Aviation (21 awards), but the dollar rankings flip dramatically toward NAVSEA, which drives 86% of total potential value through fewer, larger awards.

VTN holds four named indefinite delivery vehicles: the $50 million NAVSEA BPA (1 task order documented in the source), the $7.5 million Army Materiel Command BPA (no task orders documented), the $160,135.50 DLA Aviation indefinite delivery contract for lock pin assemblies (6 delivery orders for $5 thousand combined), and the $250,000 DLA Aviation indefinite delivery contract for safety switch shafts (5 delivery orders for $61 thousand combined). Task-order activity across these vehicles totals 13 documented delivery orders valued under $100 thousand combined. VTN competes for individual purchase orders and task orders as well as competing for new indefinite delivery vehicles; the majority of its recent small awards (under $100,000 each) are firm fixed-price purchase orders and delivery orders placed by DLA Aviation and NAVSEA outside formal IDV structures, indicating the agency relies on simplified acquisition procedures for VTN's commodity hardware items.

Activity has declined year over year. VTN received 15 awards in 2022, 12 in 2023, 13 in 2024, 4 in 2025, and 1 in 2026 (as of April 6, 2026). The combined potential value across all 45 awards is $58.6 million, but only $458 thousand has been obligated to date, indicating that most of VTN's pipeline consists of master agreements and indefinite delivery vehicles whose actual spending is being pulled through task orders incrementally. VTN operates entirely as a prime contractor; no subcontract work appears in the source record.

VTN's capability portfolio is narrowly focused on precision metal components and machine shop fabrication for defense applications. Primary product categories include nuts and washers (12 awards), hardware for weapon systems (7 awards), launcher and missile components (6 awards), commercial fasteners and fittings (5 awards), and gun systems accessories (2 awards). Manufacturing and fabrication work spans cartridge heads, firing mechanisms, lock pin assemblies, bearing retainers, mounting blocks, seal production, housings, and specialty fasteners — all build-to-print or per specification items supplied to Navy shipboard and submarine systems, Army ordnance platforms, and aircraft maintenance logistics. Place of performance is typically VTN's San Jose, California facility or subordinate Fremont, California operations; one NAVSEA order explicitly calls for performance in Newport, Rhode Island (submarine-related work).
