About the company
Kobo Utility Construction Corp., a Community Development Corporation Owned Firm and Subchapter S Corporation headquartered in Sandwich, Massachusetts, delivers airport and airfield infrastructure construction — navigational aid replacement, communications tower installation and replacement, fiber optic transmission system upgrades, and runway lighting systems — exclusively as a federal prime contractor under total small business set-asides. The vendor operates with 175 total awards across fifteen distinct federal customer agencies since 2006, with combined potential value of $86.7 million and obligated dollars of $73.2 million.
Kobo's customer base concentrates almost entirely within the Federal Aviation Administration's regional and headquarters offices. The top five FAA offices account for 75% of awards by count and 82% of combined potential value. FAA Headquarters leads with 44 awards valued at $31.8 million, followed by the Southwestern Region (12 awards, $14.3 million), Franchise Acquisition Services (14 awards, $11.1 million), New England Region (41 awards, $7.2 million), and Northwest Mountain Region (21 awards, $6.8 million). Kobo also holds secondary customer relationships with the Department of Homeland Security's Countering Weapons of Mass Destruction office (radiation portal monitor installations at land ports of entry), the Department of the Air Force Air National Guard (electrical repair BPA calls), and the U.S. Air Force (electrical repair). Activity has declined markedly: eleven awards in 2022, five in 2023, six in 2024, one in 2025, and four in 2026 year to date. Four awards totaling $10.6 million in potential value reach ultimate completion within the next twenty-four months and face recompete exposure.
Work spans a portfolio of airport modernization across domestic locations — runway localizer and glide slope replacements at Dallas Love Field, Milwaukee Mitchell, and Salinas Municipal airports; RCAG tower replacements at Mt. Kaala Hawaii, Santa Barbara California, and Bangor Maine; fiber optic transmission system upgrades at Minneapolis-St. Paul International and Salt Lake City International airports; and navigational aid installations including precision approach path indicators and distance measuring equipment. Kobo self-performs all contract labor with zero subcontractor engagement across its federal footprint. Recent representative awards include a $4.343 million FAA definitive contract for design of ATCBI tower replacement on Biorka Island, Alaska (awarded August 2026), a $2.789 million contract for Fiber Loop 1 replacement at Minneapolis-St. Paul International (awarded July 2026), and a $2.323 million contract for BUEC tower replacement and building refurbishment at Alton, Illinois and LaGrange, Indiana (awarded September 2026). Kobo places task orders under a Blanket Purchase Agreement (W912SV19A6003) with eight orders and $248 thousand combined potential value, along with two smaller air-force-related BPAs.
SCI-reported invoicing across federal service contracts above the $150,000 threshold totaled $26.1 million in FY2023–FY2024 (FY2023: $14.1 million across 11.5 FTEs; FY2024: $12 million across 9.9 FTEs). Government-paid hourly rates on prime contracts spanned a median of $532.84 per hour, with 10th-percentile rates around $167 per hour and 90th-percentile senior labor pricing through $1,567 per hour. The vendor reports zero sub-hours engagement, confirming internal delivery across all SCI-reportable contracts.
