About Carbon Activated Corporation
Carbon Activated Corporation, a minority-owned, Subcontinent Asian American-owned small business manufacturer based in Compton, California, supplies powdered and granular activated carbon products and water filtration services to federal agencies as a prime contractor (91% of recent awards) and occasionally as a subcontractor. The company competes across both small business set-aside and full-and-open vehicles, with set-aside designations appearing on roughly half of its prime awards; the Subchapter S corporation holds a $1.465 million small business set-aside indefinite delivery contract with the U.S. Army Corps of Engineers running through September 2027.
The core capability portfolio centers on activated carbon filtration solutions for water treatment and environmental remediation. Representative work includes a $1.465 million IDV awarded in September 2022 by the Army Corps of Engineers Engineering District Baltimore for powdered activated carbon supply to Washington Aqueduct through 2027, against which multiple delivery orders totaling over $700,000 have been placed; a $290,400 firm fixed-price delivery order from the same contracting office for Washington Aqueduct operations (awarded November 2023, completed November 2024); and a $20,445 rental contract with the Department of the Interior Fish and Wildlife Service for carbon filtration equipment at the California Livingston Stone National Fish Hatchery (May 2023). The company also performs granular activated carbon filter replacement and environmental remediation services across federal real property portfolios.
Customer concentration is heavily Army Corps of Engineers–centric. The top five customers by award count account for 77% of awards, with the Army Corps of Engineers Engineering District Baltimore anchoring the portfolio at six awards and $2.2 million in combined potential value — nearly two-thirds of total opportunity. The Navy, National Park Service, Joint Munitions Command, and Fish and Wildlife Service round out active relationships. The rankings reveal a secondary concentration risk: an Air Force Materiel Command order worth $516,000 (roughly 16% of combined potential value) appears as a single award, signaling material revenue concentration on a low-volume customer.
The indefinite delivery contract W912DR22D0010 with the Army Corps of Engineers supports six delivery orders totaling $976,000. Award velocity has been episodic — six awards in 2022, four in 2023, one in 2024, and two in 2026 — reflecting the lumpy nature of government water treatment and facility maintenance procurement. One award with combined potential value of $192,000 (the Washington Aqueduct delivery order from February 2026) faces completion and recompete within the next twenty-four months. In its subcontractor role, Carbon Activated Corporation provides groundwater monitoring and environmental remediation services under Trevet-Bay West Joint Venture and recurring environmental services under Aptim Federal Services. The vendor carries no holdings on government-wide acquisition contracts or other multi-agency vehicles; all prime work flows through direct agency indefinite delivery contracts.
