About the company
Telonics Inc., a Mesa, Arizona-based for-profit Subchapter S corporation, manufactures GPS, Iridium, VHF, and Argos radio collars and satellite telemetry equipment for federal wildlife agencies as a prime contractor (100% of recent awards), competing predominantly on full-and-open basis with no set-aside posture. The company designs and produces specialized wildlife tracking collars with programmable release mechanisms tailored to species-specific research requirements, alongside refurbishment and repair services for existing collar systems. Telonics operates under primary NAICS 334220 (Radio and Television Broadcasting and Wireless Communications Equipment Manufacturing) and has maintained System for Award Management registration since 2002.
Telonics' customer concentration is heavily skewed toward Interior Department agencies. The top five funding entities account for 50% of combined potential value, led by the U.S. Geological Survey Office of Acquisitions and Grants (68 awards, $6.6 million combined potential value), the National Park Service Alaska Region (65 awards, $2.1 million), U.S. Fish and Wildlife Service Region 7 (55 awards, $2 million), the National Park Service Intermountain Region (48 awards, $1.2 million), and the National Oceanic and Atmospheric Administration (53 awards, $549 thousand). Across the broader portfolio, Telonics serves 58 distinct customer agencies, though award concentration in four Interior bureaus reflects sustained reliance on proprietary Telonics collar systems and data-infrastructure lock-in—multiple procurements cite sole-source justification based on existing software compatibility, proprietary Iridium transmission systems, and data-processing infrastructure configured to Telonics equipment. Recent work includes a $97,481 firm fixed-price purchase order from the U.S. Geological Survey (September 2026) for 90 RECON-4560-5 GPS/Globalstar satellite-linked tracking collars configured for mule deer and pronghorn; a $127,530 purchase order from the Fish and Wildlife Service Alaska Region for sheep collars (July 2026); a $104,065 sole-source award from the Fish and Wildlife Service for grizzly bear radio collars across Montana, Idaho, and Washington (July 2026); and a $181,530 Total Small Business set-aside from USDA APHIS Wildlife Services for 80 Iridium/GPS collars for chronic wasting disease tracking (September 2023).
Telonics places work under five parent contract vehicles: an Indefinite Delivery Contract (INF701815D031) carrying 51 task orders worth $1.4 million combined potential value, an IDC (140G0318D0004) with 7 task orders ($77 thousand), an IDC (ING05WRCN0501) with 6 task orders ($229 thousand), a Blanket Purchase Agreement (ING12PA00015) with 6 task orders ($70 thousand), and an IDC (ING12PC00004) with 6 task orders ($981 thousand). Activity has averaged 11 awards per year over the past five years (2022–2026), with modest recompete exposure of $326 thousand in combined potential value completing within the next twenty-four months. The vendor holds no subcontract engagements across the federal footprint. Telonics operates manufacturing and service facilities in Mesa, Arizona (primary administrative and manufacturing site), with subordinate performance locations in Laramie, Wyoming; Tok, Alaska; Libby, Montana; Chandler, Arizona; Fairbanks, Alaska; San Acacia, New Mexico; and other field service locations tied to specific wildlife research projects.
