Branat Construction LLC

Branat Construction LLC, a Tennessee-based small business limited liability company, performs tower remediation, guy-wire tensioning, and antenna installation services for federal agencies exclusively as a prime contractor under total small business set-asides. The vendor operates under NAICS 237130 (Power and Communication Line and Related Structures Construction) and PSC codes emphasizing repair and alteration of electronic and communications facilities, with all six recorded federal awards (100% potential value obligated) designated as total small business set-asides across the Federal Aviation Administration, the U.S. Forest Service, and the National Oceanic and Atmospheric Administration.

Branat's customer base concentrates with the Department of Transportation. The FAA accounts for the entirety of recorded awards—three awards totaling $165 thousand through FAA Headquarters for tower remediation work at University Mountain in the Lolo National Forest (Montana), Bean Ridge in the Shawnee National Forest (Illinois), and three repeater sites (Airey, Erambert, Wausau) in Mississippi National Forests, all firm fixed-price contracts at $22.7 thousand, $28.2 thousand, and $113.6 thousand respectively with completion dates in 2025 and 2026. Two additional awards totaling $145 thousand flow through the FAA's Franchise Acquisition Services arm for guy tensioning and refurbishment of the Mill Creek Butte, Black Mountain, Wall Base, and Bear Mountain towers in Los Lunas, New Mexico ($96.6 thousand) and the Sand Lake Tower in Britt, Minnesota ($48.2 thousand). The National Oceanic and Atmospheric Administration accounts for a single $21.8 thousand purchase order awarded May 8, 2025, for antenna removal and installation services at the National Weather Service site in El Paso, Texas. Branat holds no position on GWACs, IDIQs, or agency-wide BPAs; all work flows through direct definitive contracts and purchase orders.

Activity shows early growth with two awards in 2025 and four in 2026, though the portfolio remains nascent and limited to small-dollar, discrete tower and antenna projects. One award valued at approximately $97 thousand faces ultimate completion within the next twenty-four months and represents near-term recompete exposure. The vendor operates as a pure prime contractor with no recorded subcontract footprint, indicating an owner-operated or tightly held organizational model focused on specialized tower maintenance and remediation work within the Forest Service and aviation-support space.
