Midcon Cables Co, Inc.

Midcon Cables Co, Inc. (Division: Midcon Cables Company, Inc.), a small-business manufacturer based in North Myrtle Beach, South Carolina, operates as a subcontractor (96% of recent awards) and occasional prime on defense platform cable assemblies and wiring harnesses, with a Total Small Business set-aside posture across both roles. The company is a child entity of parent Midcon Cables Co., Inc., headquartered in Joplin, Missouri, both for-profit Subchapter S corporations classified as manufacturers of goods under primary NAICS 335931 (Current-Carrying Wiring Device Manufacturing) and PSC 5995 (Cable, Cord, and Wire Assemblies).

Midcon's prime work centers on Army contracts. A five-year single-award Indefinite Delivery Contract with the Defense Logistics Agency Land and Maritime (operating under Army Contracting Command Warren), awarded April 11, 2025, carries a $478,972 ceiling for wiring harness branched components (NSN 5995-01-619-3339) supporting M1A Abrams Tank spare parts sustainment, with guaranteed minimum procurement of 16 units and a maximum five-year quantity of 96 units. Two delivery orders have flowed against this IDC: a $51,120 order on May 7, 2025, for 16 branched wiring harnesses with completion by May 13, 2026, satisfying the guaranteed minimum, and a $63,900 order on March 4, 2026, for 20 units with completion by May 4, 2027. Both orders are firm fixed price, Total Small Business set-aside.

The subcontractor footprint is substantial and concentrated in defense primes. Raytheon Company dominates Midcon's sub engagement, with cable assembly and harness work flowing across Advanced Technology Support Program (ATSP) contracts for counter unmanned aircraft system enhancements (including Enhanced Coyote Block 2 and Block 3), AN/SPY-6(V) radar hardware production, AEGIS modernization, encanistered missiles, fire control suites, and Intelligent Electronics Unit production. Alliant Techsystems Operations LLC represents the second-largest prime relationship, with Midcon supplying electronic components and fabricated wire products for Advanced Anti-Radiation Guided Missile (AARGM and AARGM-ER LRIP) development and test assets. BAE Systems Information and Electronic Systems Integration Inc. drives sub work on BIG SAFARI programs across cable assemblies, wiring harnesses, and associated components (B1 control, command and control, ethernet, power distribution). L3Harris Technologies engages Midcon for harness assemblies across BRU 57 Bomb Rack and electronic component applications. Northrop Grumman Systems Corporation subcontracts Midcon for Stand-In Attack Weapon (SIAW) Phase 2 and XM813 cannon production support.

Customer concentration skews to Navy and Air Force across the sub base. The top five customer organizations account for 85% of awards: Department of the Navy Naval Sea Systems Command (15 awards), Department of the Navy Naval Air Systems Command (14 awards), Department of the Air Force Materiel Command Aeronautical Systems Center (13 awards), Department of the Army Acquisition Support Center PEO Missiles and Space (12 awards), and Department of the Navy Naval Air Systems Command Naval Air Warfare Center (7 awards). By potential value, the Army holds 100% of the identifiable ceiling ($594 thousand across three prime awards), while Navy and Air Force sub work dominates the obligated-dollar base ($12.6 million across the portfolio). The divergence reflects Midcon's role: minimal prime dollar exposure to Army spare parts, substantial sub-dollar engagement on Navy radar, missile defense, and Air Force platform modernization programs.

Activity has accelerated sharply. Midcon recorded 5 awards in 2023, 29 in 2024, and 30 in 2025, with 8 awards through May 2026. The recompete cliff over the next twenty-four months is minimal: only one award ($64 thousand) completes in that window. Midcon's vehicle positions include a Basic Ordering Agreement (FA862021G4028) with 11 task orders, Advanced Technology Support Program IV with 11 task orders, and single-award IDCs with Navy (N6893620D0024, 7 task orders) and Air Force (FA852023D0001, 2 task orders). Work distributed across top NAICS categories reflects the platform-support portfolio: Other Aircraft Parts and Auxiliary Equipment Manufacturing (17 awards), Guided Missile and Space Vehicle Manufacturing (13 awards), Engineering Services (13 awards), and Search, Detection, Navigation, Guidance, Aeronautical, and Nautical System and Instrument Manufacturing (12 awards).
