About the company

Signature Research, Inc., an SBA-certified HUBZone small business based in Calumet, Michigan, delivers electromagnetic modeling, signal processing, synthetic aperture radar imagery generation, and advanced research and development services to the Department of Defense and Air Force as a prime contractor (87% of recent awards), competing predominantly in full-and-open procurements rather than set-aside categories. The company holds a $99.5 million Other Transaction IDV with Air Force Materiel Command for time-sensitive target surface-to-air signature replica development (awarded August 2025) and positions on two major Air Force acquisition vehicles: the $46 billion Eglin Wide Agile Acquisition Contract (EWAAC) On-Ramp IV (awarded March 2025, expiring September 2031) and a $900 million Air Force Life Cycle Management Center Architecture and Integration Directorate IDIQ (awarded June 2023, expiring November 2027).

Air Force work dominates customer concentration by potential value. The top five funding agencies account for 98% of combined potential value. The Air Force Materiel Command Lifecycle Management Center at Eglin Air Force Base anchors the portfolio with two awards worth $46 billion in potential value, driven by the EWAAC vehicle; the broader Air Force customer base adds $900 million across four awards; and Air Force Materiel Command across all organizational lines totals $101.7 million in potential value across eight awards. By award count, Army Materiel Command Research Development and Engineering Command leads with eighteen awards ($9.4 million combined potential value), followed by Air Force Space Command Space and Missile Systems Center with eleven awards. The portfolio spans 24 distinct federal agencies, but Air Force work represents the overwhelming majority of dollars.

Recent work exemplifies the technical depth: a $1.045 million Other Transaction order from Air Force Materiel Command (awarded December 2025, completing October 2026) for fabrication and delivery of a TRS6-2 signature replica; a $1.25 million Air Force Research Laboratory SBIR Direct-to-Phase-II award (February 2024, completing October 2025) for radio frequency modeling supporting machine learning-automatic target recognition algorithm training; an $8.195 million DARPA cost-plus-fixed-fee contract (December 2022, completing March 2026) for synthetic aperture radar imagery generation of maritime targets; and a $6.634 million Air Force Research Laboratory cost-plus-fixed-fee award (July 2022, completing June 2024) for coded visibility directional imaging via orientable dipole engineering. Signature Research also holds positions on One Acquisition Solution for Integrated Services - Small Business (11 task orders), Federal Supply Schedule GS23F0100N (9 task orders, $766 thousand combined potential value), and multiple smaller IDIQs including an Indefinite Delivery Contract supporting AFRL with eight task orders ($2.2 million combined potential value).

The NAICS footprint centers on research and development: 34 awards in Physical, Engineering, and Life Sciences R&D, 22 in similar R&D excluding nanotechnology and biotechnology, and 17 in engineering services, with PSC concentration in R&D—Defense Other (Applied Research/Exploratory Development) and National Defense R&D Services (Experimental Development). Activity accelerated sharply from two awards in 2024 to nine in 2025, with two awards placed in 2026. Only five awards ($2.8 million combined potential value) face ultimate completion inside the next twenty-four months, limiting immediate recompete exposure. Signature Research subcontracts through Amentum Services, Inc. (microelectronics R&D for Naval Surface Warfare Center Crane), General Dynamics Land Systems, and Linquest Corporation (AFRL ground test range evaluation), typically performing signature analysis and test support work under those primes.
