Custom Cable Crafters Inc.

Custom Cable Crafters Inc., a woman-owned small business (WOSB) and self-certified small disadvantaged business based in Vineland, New Jersey, manufactures custom cable assemblies and cabling services for federal agencies as a prime contractor on 97% of its recent awards, competing predominantly under WOSB set-asides and total small business designations. The Subchapter S corporation operates almost exclusively within the Federal Aviation Administration across NAICS codes in electronic connector and communications wire manufacturing (electronic assembly, peripheral equipment, and wire-harness manufacturing).

Custom Cable Crafters serves a single customer domain. All 31 awards in the source data come from the Department of Transportation's Federal Aviation Administration, split between FAA Headquarters (13 awards, $808 thousand combined potential value) and the FAA Technical Center in Vineland, New Jersey (15 awards, $696 thousand combined potential value), with three additional regional FAA offices holding one award each. The concentration reflects the company's geographic proximity to the FAA Technical Center and its historical specialization in FAA cabling for aviation systems. Recent representative prime work includes a $155 thousand WOSB purchase order awarded February 21, 2024, for cables to connect the Front End Network Test Bed (FENTB) to systems participating in the first segment of testing; a $107,682 full-and-open purchase order (December 21, 2023) for P1-RR and P2 cable assemblies supporting the Mode-Select Beacon System; and a $57,026.48 total small business purchase order (July 21, 2026) from FAA Headquarters for Ethernet cables supporting operational deployment requirements, due January 9, 2027.

Custom Cable Crafters' activity is flat to declining. The vendor received one award in 2022, one in 2023, four in 2024, two in 2025, and one in 2026 — showing no consistent growth trajectory. One award (the $57,026.48 Ethernet cable purchase order) reaches ultimate completion inside the next twenty-four months and faces recompete risk. Combined potential value across all prime and sub awards totals $1.6 million, with obligated dollars reaching $1.7 million across the portfolio lifespan. The vendor maintains minimal subcontract exposure: a single sub-award under Leidos (modification 30, February 9, 2024) on an En Route Automation Modernization (ERAM) contract extending performance periods through May 2041, the details of which are limited in the source. Custom Cable Crafters' capability set centers on custom cable assembly design, fabrication, and testing — supporting FAA programs including the Mode-Select Beacon System, Front End Network Test Bed, ERAM, and Voice Lab infrastructure projects. The vendor does not hold seats on government-wide vehicles (GWACs, IDIQs, or BPAs) and operates on direct purchase orders and modifications.
