Aluma Tower Company, Inc.

Aluma Tower Company, Inc., a small business manufacturer of aluminum telescopic towers and mobile communication equipment, operates primarily as a prime contractor (95% of recent awards) under total small business set-asides, delivering specialized mobile trailer tower systems and communication infrastructure to federal civilian and defense agencies. The company manufactures lightweight, portable aluminum towers up to 100 feet in height, trailer-mounted shelter combinations, and related communication equipment designed for harsh-environment deployment across utility, research, and tactical applications.

Aluma Tower's customer base spans sixty distinct federal agencies, with concentration skewed toward aviation and naval operations. The top five customers by award count—the Department of the Army, Army Test and Evaluation Command, National Oceanic and Atmospheric Administration, Naval Sea Systems Command, and Marine Corps—account for 35% of all awards. However, the top customers by potential value diverge significantly: the Federal Aviation Administration Headquarters anchors the portfolio with four awards valued at $5.5 million in combined potential value, driven by a $2.2 million single-award indefinite delivery contract awarded January 30, 2024, with a ceiling of $2.2 million and completion date of January 29, 2027. The contract mechanism established procurement of trailer and shelter assets configured as communication facilities; two delivery orders have been exercised against it, including a $2.2 million order in February 2024 and a $709 thousand order in February 2026 for mobile trailer tower deployment in Oklahoma City, Oklahoma. The FBI, Naval Sea Systems Command, Army Test and Evaluation Command, and Marine Corps round out the top five by dollars. Recent named prime work includes a $25 thousand purchase order from USDA Forest Service Southern Research Station for a T-100H telescopic tower rated for 18-square-foot antennas and 70 mph winds (awarded September 2024); a $28.5 thousand purchase order from USDA Agricultural Research Service for a TM-12HD/T-DD-35 trailer tower (awarded May 2024); and a $45 thousand purchase order from USDA Forest Service Southern Research Station for a mobile tower trailer system to mount meteorological instruments above forest canopy at Santee Experimental Forest (awarded April 2023). Aluma Tower holds positions on the Federal Supply Schedule GS03F0052T (29 task orders, $1.4 million combined potential value) and the OASIS+ Indefinite Delivery Contract W31P4Q23D0023, enabling placement of work across civilian and defense task order vehicles.

Activity has remained modest and uneven over the past five years—one award in 2022, four in 2023, seven in 2024, four in 2025, and one through February 2026—with only one award facing recompete completion in the next twenty-four months. In its subcontractor role, Aluma Tower provides tower and cable assemblies, mast systems, electrical equipment, and shelter trailer towers to L3Harris Technologies on multiple task orders, as well as tower systems to Leidos (C5ISR integration, awarded October 2025), HRL Laboratories (electrically small receivers and transmitters development, May 2025), Dynetics (Army IDIQ task instruction additional effort, May 2025), and Chugach Technical Solutions (USCG engineering and readiness services, April 2025). The vendor's NAICS footprint centers on radio and television broadcasting and wireless communications equipment manufacturing (63 awards) and other communications equipment manufacturing (32 awards), with secondary manufacturing categories spanning fabricated structural metal and truck trailer manufacturing. Place of performance spans CONUS locations including Oklahoma City, Arkansas, California, and South Carolina, with work also referenced for forest research stations and military installations nationwide.
