About Highland Engineering, Inc.

Written by GovTribe AI ·

Highland Engineering, Inc., a small business manufacturer based in Howell, Michigan, supplies specialized ground support equipment and logistical components to the Department of Defense as a prime contractor (98% of recent awards) and occasionally as a subcontractor on major defense systems work. The company manufactures water purification systems, containerized workshops and kitchens, shipping containers, pump assemblies, valve systems, hose assemblies, and related logistical components for military operations, with recent prime awards split between full-and-open and Total Small Business set-aside designations.

Highland Engineering's customer base is heavily concentrated in the Defense Logistics Agency, which dominates by award count: DLA Land and Maritime alone accounts for 850 awards valued at $18.8 million combined potential, followed by DLA Troop Support Construction and Equipment (276 awards, $6.2 million) and DLA Aviation (192 awards, $2.1 million) — together representing roughly 66% of award volume. However, the potential-value rankings reveal significant concentration with the U.S. Marine Corps ($989.9 million across 20 awards) and the Air Force Materiel Command Lifecycle Management Center at Robins Air Force Base ($234.1 million across 74 awards), driven by large platform awards and blanket purchase agreements. The disparity between volume (DLA-heavy) and dollars (Marine Corps and Air Force-heavy) reflects Highland's role as a high-volume component supplier to DLA and a specialized systems integrator for larger Air Force and Marine Corps programs.

Highland Engineering holds a $55 million single-award Blanket Purchase Agreement with the Air Force Life Cycle Management Center under the Multiple Award Schedule for water systems and logistical components (BEAR Water Systems III, awarded May 28, 2025, expiring May 27, 2026). This vehicle has generated approximately $16.4 million in call orders between February and April 2026, including $3.32 million for BEAR 550 Initial Water Systems, $2.58 million for source run equipment, $1.63 million for water systems packaging, and $1.20 million for ROWPU water system configurations. The company also holds multiple smaller Indefinite Delivery Contracts with DLA Land and Maritime covering repair kits for pumping systems ($250,000 ceiling, 2025–2026), guard rail sections ($250,000 ceiling through March 2026), and platform weldments. The Multiple Award Schedule vehicle carries 194 task orders valued at $286.2 million combined potential, anchoring Highland's position on government-wide commercial acquisition channels.

Recent capability work includes large-scale containerized systems: a $206.78 thousand customized containerized workshop for Pacific Air Forces (September 2024), a $90.42 thousand expandable deployment workshop for Shaw Air Force Base (September 2024), a $298.56 thousand Joint Air Transportable Containerized Kitchen for Air Force Special Operations Command (August 2024), and a $336.5 thousand order for reverse osmosis water purification units with NBC capabilities from Air Education and Training Command (September 2024). Highland also delivers individual components in high volume: $778.97 thousand for JCAR RATL JACK items from Air Combat Command (September 2024), and numerous smaller DLA orders for valves, pumps, hose assemblies, filter elements, and fasteners ranging from hundreds to tens of thousands of dollars. The company has historically served as a subcontractor to Lockheed Martin on bare-base infrastructure upfits and containerized systems, and to Atlantic Diving Supply on specialized container configurations.

Activity declined from 131 awards in 2022 to 69 in 2023, recovered to 118 in 2024, and stabilized at 100 in 2025, with 20 awards recorded in 2026 year-to-date. Twelve awards (combined potential value $13.3 million) reach ultimate completion within the next twenty-four months, surfacing recompete exposure primarily on DLA component IDCs and smaller Air Force purchase orders. Highland Engineering's capability footprint spans commercial NAICS codes for machinery manufacturing (227 awards), fabricated metal products (152 awards), and water purification equipment (224 awards under PSC coding), positioning the company as a broad-spectrum supplier of military logistics infrastructure rather than a specialized prime on major platform development.
