Alpha Engineered Composites, LLC

Alpha Engineered Composites, LLC, doing business as Alpha Coatings Co, manufactures specialized textile products—port curtains, valance curtains, satin cloth, and glass cleaning fabric—for the U.S. Navy and defense logistics agencies as a prime contractor operating under no set-aside designation in its recent award footprint, though it holds a self-certified small disadvantaged business designation.

The company is a for-profit limited liability corporation headquartered in Lakewood, New Jersey. While self-certified as a small disadvantaged business, Alpha Engineered Composites competes predominantly in full-and-open procurements; across nine recent prime awards, only one carries a small-business set-aside (Total Small Business on a Naval Sea Systems Command port curtain order valued at $113,221.60 awarded September 16, 2025). The remaining eight awards from Naval Sea Systems Command and Defense Logistics Agency Troop Support carry no set-aside designation, indicating the vendor wins on merit in unrestricted competition.

Customer concentration is acute. The Department of the Navy's Naval Sea Systems Command accounts for 87% of recent awards (8 awards, $659 thousand combined potential value), anchored by repeated purchase orders for port curtains and valance curtains supporting naval vessel interior outfitting. The Defense Logistics Agency's Clothing and Textiles division holds the remaining 13% of awards (1 award, $94 thousand) for a glass cleaning cloth procurement. Both agency rankings align — NAVSEA dominates both volume and dollars — and together they represent 100% of Alpha Engineered Composites' tracked federal activity.

Activity trajectory shows growth into 2024 (five awards) followed by a shallow 2025 (one award) and partial-year 2026 activity (two awards as of mid-March). Combined potential value across all nine awards is $753 thousand, fully obligated. The vendor operates exclusively as a prime; no subcontract footprint appears in the source data. Two awards note prior subcontract work supporting CVN 74 aircraft carrier outfitting under HII Fleet Support Group LLC, demonstrating capability on large naval platform modernization efforts. Product scope concentrates on NAICS codes for curtain and linen mills and blind and shade manufacturing, with PSC 2120 (Draperies, Awnings, and Shades) accounting for seven of nine awards. Firm fixed-price purchase orders with delivery periods ranging from 45 to 90 days form the operational pattern, with the most recent order (March 23, 2026, $124,353 for valance curtain manufacturing) completing May 11, 2026.
