Small Business or Specialty Electronics Distributor

Specialty electronics distributors are invited to position themselves as potential suppliers of rotary relays under a subcontract arrangement with Empire Avionics, which is acting as the prime integrator for a Defense Logistics Agency procurement. The opportunity is tied to a specific NAICS code for specialty electronics distributors and is part of a larger defense contract, though the exact scope and requirements of the prime contract are not detailed here. This arrangement allows qualifying small businesses or niche distributors to support the sourcing of critical components externally when Empire Avionics does not manufacture the rotary relay in-house. The solicitation was posted in July 2026 and is managed under the DLA’s procurement system, indicating it is part of a broader Department of Defense supply chain effort, with no specific geographic performance location or set-aside designation provided.
