About the company
Zenith Aviation, Inc., operating as Zenith Aviation Inc., is a service-disabled veteran-owned small business based in Fredericksburg, Virginia, that supplies specialized aviation spare parts and components to the U.S. Coast Guard as a prime contractor (76% of recent awards) and to defense primes as a subcontractor. The company is a Subchapter S corporation, veteran-owned and SDVOSB-certified, competing predominantly full-and-open rather than under set-asides, though several of its Coast Guard IDIQs carry Total Small Business set-aside designations.
Zenith Aviation's capability portfolio centers on MH-65 and MH-60T helicopter logistics—fasteners, structural components, electrical connectors, hose assemblies, electronic parts, and hydraulic elements essential for Coast Guard rotary-wing aircraft maintenance. The company holds three standing Coast Guard IDIQs: a $2.22 million single-award Total Small Business IDIQ awarded January 1, 2027, running through December 31, 2031; a $603,798.82 single-award Total Small Business IDIQ awarded April 1, 2026, through March 31, 2031; and a $673,777.33 single-award Total Small Business IDIQ awarded August 2, 2023, through December 31, 2027. Recent delivery orders under these vehicles include a $120,960 purchase order for MH-65 MLG tubeless tires (July 9, 2024), a $84,942 delivery order for MH-65 spare parts under a Total Small Business set-aside (April 21, 2026), and a $51,038.97 delivery order for MH-65 spares (September 17, 2025). Many individual delivery orders cite FAR 25.103(b)(1) nonavailability class determinations, establishing Zenith as sole-source for mission-critical components. Individual delivery order values typically range from under $100 to $25,000.
Customer concentration is extreme: the Department of Homeland Security U.S. Coast Guard accounts for 460 of 609 total awards (100% of combined potential value at $10.2 million). The remaining five awards span the Department of the Air Force, Air Force Materiel Command (Aeronautical Systems Center and Air Force Sustainment Center), and Defense Logistics Agency Aviation. NAICS 336413 (Other Aircraft Parts and Auxiliary Equipment Manufacturing) dominates the prime footprint at 459 awards; PSC concentration is equally narrow, with screws (165 awards), nuts and washers (90 awards), bolts (28 awards), and connectors (27 awards) representing the largest procurement categories.
The vendor's subcontract footprint is secondary to its Coast Guard prime position but material: Zenith subcontracts to Sierra Nevada Company, LLC (Big Safari program aircraft parts, systems components, and field-support logistics) and JPATS Logistics Services, LLC (Contractor Operated and Maintained Base Supply—COMBS III—parts and materials for military airlift). Recent sub-awards include aircraft parts, refrigeration packs, motor pump assemblies, controllers, and sensor components delivered to these primes in support of legacy aircraft sustainment and special-access programs.
Activity has been steady—102 to 127 awards per year from 2023 through 2025—with a significant drop to 30 awards in 2026 and only 1 award (the January 2027 IDIQ) in 2027, reflecting a shift toward larger IDIQ ceiling values under the new Coast Guard vehicles rather than continued high-volume delivery order traffic. Combined dollars obligated exceed combined potential value at 125%, indicating heavy execution against the available ceiling. Fifteen awards face ultimate completion in the next twenty-four months with combined potential value of $120 thousand—modest recompete exposure given the vendor's established sole-source position under existing Coast Guard IDIQs. Zenith Aviation's footprint is functionally monolithic: a long-standing Coast Guard MH-65 logistics partner with supplementary Air Force and defense-industrial subcontract work at materially lower scale.
