Boone Steel LLC

Boone Steel LLC, a small business limited liability company, supplies steel materials, fabricated metal components, and construction materials to the U.S. Army Corps of Engineers as a prime contractor exclusively under non-set-aside and total small business set-aside vehicles, with 100% of recent awards flowing to Army Corps operations across the Ohio River Valley region.

Boone Steel is headquartered in Walton, Kentucky, and operates as a for-profit limited liability company with no parent entity and no SBA designations beyond small business status. The vendor competes under total small business set-asides on roughly two-thirds of recent awards; the remainder are full-and-open. The company's NAICS footprint centers on fabricated structural metal manufacturing (65 of 66 awards), with secondary exposure to iron and steel pipe and tube manufacturing. PSC concentration runs to structural shapes (38 awards), iron and steel primary and semifinished products (23 awards), and pipe, tube, rigid tubing, bars, and rods (the remaining 5 awards).

Boone Steel's capability portfolio is concrete and narrow: procurement and delivery of steel plates, beams, angles, rods, pipes, fittings, welding supplies, anchorage materials, cylinder components, lift gate shims, wedge anchors, and fabricated metal goods for federal infrastructure repair and maintenance. Recent representative prime work includes a $294,763 total small business purchase order from the Army Corps of Engineers Pittsburgh District (January 2026) for Pike Island bulkhead slot steel materials; a $83,650 total small business BPA call from USACE Huntington District (February 2025) for anode supply to the medium capacity fleet in Pittsburgh; a $104,778 BPA call from USACE Huntington District (April 2024) for Hannibal steel supplies to the Pittsburgh Engineer Warehouse; and a $77,714 BPA call from USACE Huntington District (June 2023) for McAlpine steel materials to Marietta Repair Station. The vendor holds no subcontract footprint.

Customer concentration is extreme and static: 100% of awards and combined potential value flow to the Army Corps of Engineers and its subordinate engineering districts. The Huntington District accounts for 25 awards ($6.9 million combined potential value), and the Pittsburgh District accounts for 2 awards ($7.8 million combined potential value), reflecting a recent strategic shift toward the Pittsburgh office as vehicle holder. Boone Steel sits on two primary BPA vehicles: a $6 million single-award BPA with USACE Huntington District (awarded November 2025, running through August 2027) under which 24 task orders have issued ($936 thousand combined potential value), and a newly awarded $7.5 million single-award BPA with USACE Pittsburgh's Engineering and Design Institute office (awarded January 2026, running through January 2031) under which 1 task order has issued to date ($53 thousand combined potential value). A third vehicle, BPA W9123721A0004, carries 34 task orders and $1.7 million in combined potential value. All three vehicles are non-set-aside, single-award indefinite delivery contracts.

Activity has been episodic: 12 awards in 2022, declining to 4 in 2023 and 5 in 2024, before rebounding to 10 in 2025 and 2 in 2026 year-to-date. Combined potential value across all 66 awards stands at $23.5 million, with only $3.1 million (13%) obligated. Boone Steel registered in SAM.gov in 2004 and has maintained continuous federal contracting activity since that date. The vendor operates exclusively in prime roles; no subcontract footprint appears in the award record. Performance locations concentrate on Marietta, Ohio (Marietta Repair Station), Pittsburgh, Pennsylvania (Pittsburgh Engineer Warehouse), Louisville, Kentucky (Louisville Repair Station), and field sites across the Ohio River Valley (locks, dams, warehouses, and inland waterway facilities managed by USACE). The transition from the Huntington District's established $6 million BPA to the new $7.5 million Pittsburgh-based BPA signals a potential geographic or operational rebalancing within the Corps' procurement footprint, though the underlying mission — materials supply for civil works infrastructure maintenance — remains unchanged.
