About the company
Tri-Star Technologies Inc., a self-certified small disadvantaged business manufacturer based in El Segundo, California, designs and sells precision laser wire marking systems, automatic contact crimping equipment, and plasma treatment systems to the U.S. Department of Defense as a prime contractor (86% of recent awards) and subcontractor. The company competes predominantly under small business set-asides — about 50% of recent prime awards carry Total Small Business designations — and also wins full-and-open purchase orders from logistics complexes and field activities.
Tri-Star's capability portfolio centers on specialized wire and cable marking equipment. Representative prime work includes a $373,720 purchase order from the U.S. Coast Guard (awarded September 2026) for ink jet and laser wire marking machines to support the MH-60T aircraft avionics shop at the USCG Aviation Logistics Center in Elizabeth City, North Carolina; a $218,340 small business set-aside delivery from the Air Force (July 2025) for two tabletop laser marking systems to support Edwards Bomber platforms; and a $182,000 order from the Air Force Materiel Command's Warner Robins Air Logistics Complex (February 2026) for laser wire markers with marking speeds of at least 25 meters per minute, capable of processing wire from 26 AWG to 6 AWG. The company also manufactures and supplies automatic contact crimping systems and related accessories, as documented in a $49,000 firm fixed-price purchase order from Army Materiel Command's Letterkenny Army Depot (May 2024). Most work is production-and-delivery focused, with performance at Air Force logistics complexes in Oklahoma City, Warner Robins, and Wichita, plus Navy shipyards and Army depots.
Customer concentration is tight and defense-centric. The top five customers account for 59% of combined potential value across all awards. The Air Force Materiel Command Oklahoma City Air Logistics Complex leads by volume (7 awards, $604 thousand combined potential value), followed by the Department of the Air Force proper (5 awards, $487 thousand), the U.S. Coast Guard (1 award, $374 thousand), the Air National Guard (3 awards, $204 thousand), and Warner Robins Air Logistics Complex (2 awards, $190 thousand). Activity is modest and flat — three awards in 2022, two in 2023, four in 2024, six in 2025, and four in 2026 to date — with a combined potential value of $3.2 million across all 42 awards (prime and sub combined). Only two awards with combined potential value of $556 thousand face ultimate completion within the next twenty-four months.
Tri-Star sits on three named parent vehicles: Indefinite Delivery Contract W31P4Q25D0003 (3 task orders), Indefinite Delivery Contract 80JSC023DA017 (1 task order), and the Information Analysis Center Multiple-Award Contract (1 task order). In its subcontractor role, Tri-Star supplies laser marking systems and engineering support to Dynetics, Inc., Yulista Solutions, LLC, HII Mission Technologies Corp, and General Dynamics Information Technology, Inc. on defense research and development, vertical launching system testing, and aircraft maintenance support contracts. The company's award footprint spans twenty distinct federal customer agencies over the past two decades, with roughly 86% as prime and 14% as subcontractor; primary NAICS categories are Marking Device Manufacturing (7 awards) and Machine Tool Manufacturing (6 awards), with the PSC profile dominated by Industrial Marking Machines (18 awards).
