Avtech Research Corporation

Avtech Research Corporation, doing business as Avtech, is a Service-Disabled Veteran-Owned Small Business (SDVOSB) headquartered in Henderson, Nevada, that produces tactics manuals, technical documentation, and aircraft maintenance guides for the U.S. Air Force's foreign military sales programs as a prime contractor (100% of awards). Avtech operates under Subchapter S corporation structure and competes predominantly under SDVOSB set-aside vehicles, with 362 awards recorded across a 24-year footprint and a combined potential value of $106.2 million.

Avtech's capability portfolio centers on technical publication production for foreign military sales and military training. The company specializes in creating detailed tactics manuals, aircraft maintenance guides, threat documentation, and training materials for platforms including the F-35, F-16, F-15, C-17, and MQ-9 systems, supporting knowledge transfer to allied nations including the United Kingdom, Germany, Canada, Australia, Norway, Saudi Arabia, and others. Representative work includes a $2.44 million SDVOSB delivery order from Air Combat Command for FY26 tactics manual production across multiple allied nations, awarded September 2025; a $862,927 delivery order for 561st Weapons Squadron tactical manuals under the ACC's larger SDVOSB-set-aside indefinite delivery contract running through September 2028; a $5.9 million purchase order for ACAP maintenance services at Nellis Air Force Base through October 2029, awarded May 2024; and a $247,198 sole-source SDVOSB purchase order from Air Force Space Command for NORAD air defense Tactics, Techniques and Procedures documentation through December 2028.

Customer concentration is extreme and single-agency dependent. The Department of the Air Force Air Combat Command accounts for 270 awards (97% of recent awards) and $86 million in combined potential value (81% of dollars), with the larger Air Force organization holding 71 additional awards totaling $14.3 million. Five Air Force components (ACC, general Air Force, Materiel Command, Defense Finance and Accounting Service, and Space Command) cover 99% of combined potential value. No other federal agency drives material volume or dollars.

Avtech's primary vehicle is a $9,999,999 single-award Indefinite Delivery Contract with Air Combat Command set aside for SDVOSB, awarded September 2023 and running through September 2028, which anchors the bulk of recent delivery-order activity. The top five parent vehicles by task-order count are four Air Combat Command indefinite delivery contracts (FA486105DB500 with 75 task orders and $3 million potential; FA486112DC001 with 72 task orders and $8.7 million potential; FA486118DC003 with 40 task orders and $13.2 million potential; and FA486111DB004 with 28 task orders and $1.6 million potential) and the Federal Supply Schedule GS35F0515K with 33 task orders and $5.4 million potential. Work is performed at Nellis Air Force Base, Nevada, and subordinate allied-nation locations where foreign military sales occur.

Activity has remained relatively flat year over year between 2022 and 2025 (7 to 9 awards per calendar year), with only two awards recorded through March 2026. Six awards (combined potential value $1.4 million) reach ultimate completion inside the next twenty-four months, representing minimal recompete exposure in that window. The vendor has not been captured in the Service Contract Inventory database as a prime contractor; SCI records show Avtech as a named subcontractor on four sub-records spanning FY2022 and FY2024, with roughly 15 FTEs reported, though this is a negligible subset of the vendor's federal services footprint and does not reflect the scale of delivery-order activity under the Air Combat Command IDC.

Avtech operates exclusively as a prime contractor with no recorded subcontract awards in the source data. The vendor's registration in SAM.gov dates to 2002, supporting a quarter-century of continuous federal contracting primarily anchored to a single customer and a single vehicle.
