Wingate Alloys Inc.

Wingate Alloys Inc., headquartered in Warrensville Heights, Ohio, is a small business manufacturer that supplies specialized steel alloys, bars, tubing, forged components, and industrial metals to the U.S. Army as a prime contractor on blanket purchase agreements (BPAs) and task orders. The company competes predominantly under total small business set-asides across its federal footprint, with 100 percent of its awards as prime contracts—no subcontracting activity in the source record.

Wingate Alloys' customer base is heavily concentrated within the Department of the Army. The top five funding agencies account for 98 percent of awards and include TACOM Life Cycle Management Command (426 awards, $14.5 million combined potential value), the Army Corps of Engineers overall (68 awards, $26.5 million), the Corps' Huntington District (75 awards, $7.4 million), the Corps' Pittsburgh District (1 award, $7.5 million), and the Department of the Army Communications Electronics Command (32 awards, $114 thousand). The two ranking measures diverge meaningfully: while TACOM dominates by volume, the Corps of Engineers commands the highest dollar concentration when its subordinate districts are aggregated. Wingate Alloys serves 11 distinct federal customer agencies overall, though Army presence overwhelms the portfolio.

The company holds multiple active BPA vehicles. Its largest current IDV is a $7.5 million single-award Master Steel BPA with ENDIST Pittsburgh (awarded January 16, 2026, expiring January 31, 2031) for specialized metal alloys and steel products supporting weapons system lifecycle management and defense manufacturing. A $6 million single-award BPA with the Corps of Engineers Huntington District (awarded December 3, 2024, expiring August 31, 2027) supplies steel and metals for the Regional Rivers Repair Fleet and civil works operations, with ten task orders valued at approximately $1.14 million issued as of December 2025—all designated total small business set-asides. A $500,000 single-award rigging supplies BPA with the Huntington District (awarded August 27, 2024, expiring August 1, 2028) has generated three task orders totaling approximately $323,800. Historically, Wingate Alloys also held a $5 million single-award BPA with TACOM (awarded July 5, 2021, expiring July 4, 2026) that generated over 55 documented task orders since June 2023, with individual values ranging from approximately $578 to $247,455.

Recent work illustrates Wingate Alloys' capability footprint: a $4.17 million total small business purchase order with the Army Corps of Engineers for Baltimore Harbor pipe round material for the Marietta Repair Station (April 8, 2025); a $1.11 million purchase order for seamless ASTM 106 Grade B pipe for the Marietta Repair Station (June 27, 2024); multiple smaller task orders under the Huntington District BPA for cylinder rod material ($113,276), steel materials for Meldahl Lock and Dam ($149,001.90), bearing materials for the vessel Evanick ($205,492), and hydraulic cylinder materials ($68,586), all completed or due by mid-2026; and dozens of TACOM task orders for precision-ground parts, steel alloy bars, forged components, tubing, and specialty metals supporting Army weapons systems and ground combat vehicle maintenance.

Activity declined sharply in 2025 (24 awards) and into early 2026 (5 awards to date), compared to peak years of 60 awards (2022) and 43 awards (2024). One award with potential value of approximately $97,000 faces completion within the next twenty-four months, presenting a modest recompete risk. The vendor's award concentration across NAICS codes reflects its core business: Metal Service Centers and Other Metal Merchant Wholesalers (225 awards), Iron and Steel Forging (113 awards), and Fabricated Structural Metal Manufacturing (107 awards). By PSC, the bulk of work involves Bars and Rods (181 awards), Pipe, Tube and Rigid Tubing (58 awards), and supporting munitions manufacturing platforms such as the 75mm through 125mm gun family (54 awards) and larger gun systems (71 awards). The combined potential value across all 635 awards stands at $56.9 million, with $24.9 million obligated (44 percent).
