Triangle Telephone Cooperative Association, Inc.

Triangle Telephone Cooperative Association, Inc., doing business as Triangle Communications, operates as a nonprofit rural telecommunications cooperative based in Havre, Montana, providing local telephone and internet services to federal facilities on Native American reservations and remote government installations across Montana, exclusively as a prime contractor with no subcontracting activity.

Triangle Communications serves seven distinct federal customer agencies over the past several years, with customer concentration heavily weighted toward the Department of Health and Human Services Indian Health Service (15 awards, $767 thousand combined potential value) and the Department of the Interior Bureau of Indian Affairs Rocky Mountain Region (11 awards, $349 thousand combined potential value). These two agencies account for 70% of all awards. The Department of the Interior Bureau of Reclamation places smaller repeat orders (5 awards, $75 thousand), and the Defense Information Systems Agency, Bureau of Land Management Montana-Dakotas Region, and Forest Service R1-Northern Region round out the customer set. The Indian Health Service and HHS Assistant Secretary for Financial Resources together anchor nearly 74% of the vendor's combined potential value, with a single large Indian Health Service contract for Fort Belknap and Eagle Child Health Center telephone services worth $578,838.69 running through September 2026.

Award volume has been modest and flat — 37 total prime awards across the portfolio, with two awards in 2026 (most recent September 29), two in 2025, one in 2023, one in 2022, and four in 2021. Recent representative work includes a $132,804.50 September 2026 purchase order from the Indian Health Service for Fort Belknap Service Unit telecommunication service (ultimate completion September 2027), a $99,561.00 May 2026 Department of the Interior purchase order for telecommunications at Fort Belknap Detention facility (running through May 2031), and a $92,900 August 2025 Montana-Dakotas Region order for North Central District telecommunications (completing January 2027). All awards are firm fixed-price purchase orders with no set-aside designations; Triangle Communications is repeatedly identified as the sole available provider of local infrastructure in remote, rural areas where it owns the underlying communication lines and assets.

Two awards with combined potential value of $226 thousand reach ultimate completion within the next twenty-four months, creating a recompete window. The vendor places work under one named parent vehicle, Basic Ordering Agreement DCA200XX00000, with two task orders. SCI-reportable invoiced revenue for federal services contracts above the $150,000 threshold totals $61 thousand in FY2023, with no SCI-reportable invoicing in FY2024 or FY2025; the SCI dataset reflects only a partial view of the vendor's federal revenue and does not capture goods, micro-purchases, or the full scope of purchase-order work. Triangle Communications operates two named subsidiaries: Triangle Communication System, Inc. and Central Montana Communications, Inc. The vendor's primary NAICS focus is Wired Telecommunications Carriers (12 awards), supported by secondary activity in All Other Information Services and Regulation and Administration of Communications, Electric, Gas, and Other Utilities.
