About the company

W S Darley & Co, a Subchapter S corporation and small business manufacturer headquartered in Itasca, Illinois, serves the federal government predominantly as a prime contractor delivering firefighting, tactical, emergency response equipment, and specialized supplies to defense and civilian agencies under total small business set-asides. The vendor's federal footprint comprises 41,400 awards with combined potential value of $295.87 billion, of which $8.45 billion has been obligated to date; the vast majority—36,145 awards representing $223.22 billion in potential value—are task orders issued by the Defense Logistics Agency's Troop Support Construction and Equipment division under the Special Operations Equipment - Tailored Logistics Support (SOE-TLS) IDIQ, a $330 million total small business set-aside vehicle awarded February 3, 2026. W S Darley & Co competes exclusively under total small business set-asides and maintains extreme customer concentration with the Defense Logistics Agency, which accounts for 87% of award count and 81% of combined potential value across the portfolio.

The vendor's core capabilities span marine and diving equipment, firefighting and emergency response gear, tactical systems, electrical components, and specialized logistics support. Representative work includes a $18.061 million SOE-TLS delivery order from Defense Logistics Agency for a Fixed Site System 25 supporting customs and border protection port-of-entry operations (completion November 2, 2026); an $8.944 million delivery order for the Grenadier Sighting System with PAC under the same vehicle (completion January 31, 2028); $7.722 million for MX-15 electro-optical infrared equipment; $5.704 million for a DRIX-H9 Unmanned Surface Vehicle with Navy Air Systems Command configuration; and $5.602 million for an Advanced Subsea Diver Support System. Beyond SOE-TLS, the vendor holds task orders under the 6th Generation Fire and Emergency Services Equipment Tailored Logistics Support IDIQ (1,739 task orders, $160.6 million combined potential value) and the Special Operational Equipment Logistics Support 2019 vehicle (3,504 task orders, $711 million). Recent non-Defense Logistics Agency work includes a $2.48 million assault-respirator delivery order from Defense Finance and Accounting Service under the Brand Name Commercial Items, Equipment, and Ancillary Training and Services JPEO CBRND IDIQ; a $2.31 million RS Instantaneous Biological Aerosol Collector (IBAC) V2 order from the same contracting office; a $557,249.65 FBI Academy STEAL IDIQ delivery order for tactical equipment; and a position on the NASA SEWP VI GWAC (awarded November 1, 2026, with a $20 billion ceiling through October 31, 2036), representing the vendor's entry into broader IT solutions contracting alongside its core equipment distribution mission.

Task order issuance remains robust despite recent portfolio churn: the vendor received 2,323 new federal awards in 2026 year-to-date, continuing a pattern of 3,600–4,100 awards annually over the prior five-year period. However, 1,344 awards with combined potential value of $1.79 billion face ultimate completion within the next twenty-four months, creating recompete exposure centered on Defense Logistics Agency contract renewals—particularly renewal or successor awards to the SOE-TLS vehicle and its fire-services equivalent. The vendor's award catalog spans 219 distinct customer agencies, but Department of the Navy Naval Supply Systems Command (575 awards, $44.9 million), the Marine Corps (72 awards, $111.2 million), and GSA Federal Acquisition Service (50 awards, $140.1 million) represent the only meaningful secondary customers; all other agencies account for sub-million-dollar portfolios. Product concentration runs heavy into marine lifesaving and diving equipment (20,893 awards), electric lamps and lighting (7,464 awards combined), fire-fighting equipment (4,640 awards), and safety and rescue gear (3,737 awards), with secondary depth in photographic and photocopying equipment manufacturing and service-establishment supplies. W S Darley & Co operates as parent to itself under the same legal structure and carries a single reported sub-award, a $4.2 million 2026 BPA call to Highland Engineering for bear water-system reverse-osmosis water-purification equipment. The vendor's federal portfolio is characterized by high-volume, small-dollar, commodity-driven logistics task orders flowing from a single dominant IDIQ, a posture that maximizes small-business set-aside accessibility while creating structural recompete risk tied to Defense Logistics Agency vehicle recompetes.
