About Ideal Manufacturing Inc.
Ideal Manufacturing Inc., a Montana-based manufacturer of goods operating as a small disadvantaged business, primarily supplies physical security components, ornamental metalwork, and specialized fabrication to federal agencies as a prime contractor, with occasional subcontracted work in plumbing and gate manufacturing. The vendor competes on full-and-open solicitations without set-aside designation; self-certified small disadvantaged business status does not drive its procurement posture.
Ideal's award footprint is modest and highly fragmented across defense and civilian agencies. The firm has logged thirteen federal awards across twenty years of tracked history, with combined potential value of $232 thousand and combined obligated dollars of $394 thousand — a pattern indicating small dollar purchases and repair/maintenance work rather than large-scale manufacturing contracts. The top customer by potential value is the Department of the Army Materiel Command Joint Munitions Command, which accounts for $68 thousand across two awards, including a $32.8 thousand purchase order placed in November 2024 for slow-down switches, stop-limit switches, and related security components for Naval Surface Warfare Center Crane. That award was sole-source, restricted to authorized distributors of the specified brand. The Department of the Army Corps of Engineers, Department of Homeland Security US Coast Guard, and Department of the Navy Naval Sea Systems Command follow with smaller potential values. Concentration metrics are low: the top five customer agencies cover only 54% of recent awards by count and 78% by potential value, reflecting a customer base spread across seven distinct agencies.
Ideal's capability portfolio, grounded in named awards, centers on fencing, gates, and related architectural metalwork (six awards by PSC code) and construction machinery or HVAC component fabrication. Recent prime work includes the November 2024 Munitions Command security equipment supply contract. Subcontracted work includes plumbing and heating system repair in Cold Bay, Alaska under Hunatek Federal Services (April 2026) and hydraulic gate manufacturing to specification for Air Station Sitka (October 2025). Activity has remained flat over the past five years — one award per year in 2019, 2021, 2024, 2025, and 2026 — with no visible growth trajectory or customer concentration that would signal recompete exposure or pipeline intensity.
