Gatr Technologies, Inc.

Gatr Technologies, Inc., a small-business manufacturer based in Huntsville, Alabama and subsidiary of Cubic Corporation, supplies specialized electronic components, cable assemblies, antenna equipment, and communications hardware to the Department of Defense as a prime contractor (98% of recent awards) across full-and-open procurements, competing without set-aside designations.

Gatr's federal footprint spans 1,492 awards over two decades, with recent activity concentrated in Defense Logistics Agency Aviation purchase orders and Marine Corps and Air Force delivery orders for communications systems and power distribution. The company's customer concentration tilts heavily toward procurement volume in DLA Aviation—659 awards across recurring Indefinite Delivery Vehicle structures—but dollar concentration follows the Army's PEO Command Control Communications-Tactical program (149 awards, $6.59 billion combined potential value), the Marine Corps (116 awards, $1.18 billion), and the Air Force (67 awards, $1.08 billion). DLA Land and Maritime and USSOCOM round out the active set. The two rankings diverge sharply: DLA Aviation dominates order count but carries modest per-order values; the Army, Marines, and Air Force anchor most dollars through larger delivery orders for power distribution units, routers, and communications systems.

Gatr holds four single-award Indefinite Delivery Vehicles with DLA Aviation (each $250,000 ceiling, established September 2023 through December 2023) for cable assembly procurement, with two additional IDVs awarded in late 2025 and early 2026 at $350,000 ceilings. The company places recurring task orders under Army IDC W15QKN13D0099 ($595.6 million across 212 task orders) and Air Force IDC H9222212D0016 ($158.7 million across 146 task orders), signaling established positions on larger vehicles anchoring multi-year delivery streams.

Recent representative work includes a $4.98 million Marine Corps delivery order for production Power Distribution Units for the Next Generation Troposcatter (NGT) Systems program (July 2025), a $2.61 million Marine Corps delivery order for NGT training and diagnostic capability (May 2025), an $8.18 million Air Force delivery order for routers under SBIR Phase III (December 2024), and a $1.15 million sole-source DLA Distribution purchase order for GATR Trac Antenna tracking enclosure assemblies (September 2024). Gatr also executes multiple SBIR Phase III actions with the Air Force, Naval Special Warfare Command, and Naval Air Systems Command, transitioning M3-SE router systems, Radio Over IP equipment, and battery modules into military platforms.

Activity has remained roughly stable—180 awards in 2022 to 174 in 2024—with a notable seasonal dip in 2025 (106 awards) reflecting typical federal contract timing. Only four awards face completion in the next twenty-four months with combined potential value of $5.6 million, indicating minimal recompete cliff exposure.

Gatr operates as prime on 98% of awards; its 2% sub footprint includes work as a subcontractor to Boeing (MQ-25 Evolutionary Development aircraft systems, August 2025 and March 2025), CACI Inc. (TACCOMM operations and maintenance, February 2025), and Scientific Research Corporation (antenna and RF equipment updates, July 2024). On its own Marine Corps NGT delivery orders, Gatr engages named subs including Zarges Inc. (rackmount cases) and Nova Power Solutions Inc. (three-phase power distribution units). Service Contract Inventory reports minimal capture—four records spanning FY2022–FY2024 as a named subcontractor, representing negligible FTE volume—reflecting Gatr's goods-dominant profile: cable, antenna, and power systems manufacturing rather than service labor.

The company's award portfolio concentrates in Radio and Television Broadcasting and Wireless Communications Equipment Manufacturing (574 awards, NAICS 334220) and Current-Carrying Wiring Device Manufacturing (407 awards, NAICS 335930), with PSC codes anchored by Cable, Cord, and Wire Assemblies for Communication Equipment (398 awards) and Antennas, Waveguides, and Related Equipment (295 awards). Gatr competes across full-and-open procurements without reliance on small-business set-asides, positioning itself as a capable unrestricted supplier for recurring DLA aviation components and higher-dollar delivery orders from Army, Marine Corps, and Air Force customers investing in next-generation communications and power systems.
