About Hughes Brothers Inc.

Hughes Brothers Inc., a small business manufacturer of utility transmission infrastructure components based in Seward, Nebraska, operates as a wholly owned subsidiary of Owens Corning and supplies crossarms, X-braces, framing kits, and structure kits to the Department of Energy's regional power administrations as a prime contractor exclusively. The company competes predominantly under total small business set-asides on its Indefinite Delivery Contract vehicle and mixed set-aside and unrestricted competition on individual purchase orders and delivery orders issued against that vehicle.

Hughes Brothers' federal footprint is entirely concentrated within the Department of Energy's power transmission mission. The Western Area Power Administration represents 111 of the vendor's 213 prime awards (52% of total count) carrying $25.7 million in combined potential value, accounting for 81% of the vendor's dollar exposure; the Southeastern Power Administration accounts for 6 awards valued at $769 thousand. Across both WAPA and SEPA, Hughes Brothers supplies wood-based and steel crossarms for 115 kilovolt, 161 kilovolt, and 230 kilovolt transmission lines, structural components for high-voltage infrastructure maintenance and emergency storm recovery, and specialized framing and structure kits. Representative awards include a $881,000 delivery order from WAPA in August 2025 for crossarms and X-braces to replenish inventory following June 2025 weather events, a $372,600 total small business set-aside purchase order from SEPA in September 2025 for steel crossarms to three locations in Arkansas, and a $729,400 delivery order from WAPA in February 2022 for wood framing kits supporting substation distribution maintenance operations.

Hughes Brothers holds three parent IDC vehicles with WAPA spanning fiscal years 2021 through 2028. The largest and most active is the $7.5 million Indefinite Delivery Contract (DEAM6506WB71696) awarded March 22, 2023, as a total small business set-aside, running through March 7, 2028, which supports 65 task orders carrying $5.1 million in combined potential value and authorizes supply across WAPA's Upper Great Plains, Rocky Mountain, and Desert Southwest service regions. Two earlier IDIQ vehicles—DEWA0003680 and 89503423DWA000015—account for 47 and 22 task orders respectively, carrying $5.4 million and $3.7 million in combined potential value, and are approaching or have reached ultimate completion through 2022 and 2026. All work is performed at Hughes Brothers' Seward manufacturing facility. Recent activity averages eight to eleven awards annually; only three awards totaling $115 thousand face ultimate completion in the next twenty-four months, leaving the vendor's recompete exposure minimal over the near term. The vendor's award portfolio spans nearly thirty years, with invoiced obligations at $18.5 million (58% of combined potential value), reflecting consistent execution on small-dollar purchase orders and delivery orders rather than a concentration of large single awards.
