Worthington Products, LLC

Worthington Products, LLC, a sole-proprietor limited liability company based in East Canton, Ohio, manufactures and supplies specialized floating barrier systems, marine infrastructure, and debris-control equipment to federal agencies as a prime contractor on a full-and-open basis, with no set-aside designations across most of the footprint. The company competes for work across 35 distinct federal customer agencies, with particular depth in water resource management, flood control, and navigation infrastructure operated by the Bureau of Reclamation and the Army Corps of Engineers.

Worthington's capability portfolio centers on floating booms, waterway barriers, navigation buoys, boat gates, and related marine assemblies — primarily proprietary Tuffboom and ODINFloat systems. Recent representative work includes a $946,868 delivery order from the Bureau of Reclamation for Hungry Horse Dam log boom replacement (August 2024), a $724,061 Army Corps of Engineers order for floating boom supplies (September 2021), a $415,289 delivery order supplying 206 Tuffboom waterway barriers with associated hardware to the Bureau of Reclamation (August 2021), and a $55,320 sole-source definitive contract from the Bureau of Reclamation for lakeside vessel barrier gate repair at Hoover Dam (May 2026) — where Worthington was identified as the sole source owing to its original equipment manufacturer status on the Tuffboom and ODINFloat systems and proprietary connection capability. Work is classified primarily under NAICS All Other Plastics Product Manufacturing (129 awards) and Boat Building (10 awards), with PSC concentration in Pontoons and Floating Docks (51 awards), Buoys (30 awards), and Miscellaneous Ship and Marine Equipment (24 awards).

Customer concentration splits between the Bureau of Reclamation (29 awards, $3.1 million combined potential value) and the Army Corps of Engineers across multiple districts (28 base awards plus 31 subordinate district awards, $1.8 million combined potential value to the parent agency). The two rankings diverge sharply: the GSA Federal Acquisition Service anchors 77% of combined potential value ($11.4 million) through Worthington's $8,049,452 Multiple Award Schedule contract vehicle (valid through November 2026), which serves as the master vehicle for 119 task orders ($9.4 million combined potential value) placed by downstream agencies including the Bureau of Reclamation and Corps of Engineers districts. This MAS position enables Worthington to supply over 100 stock items and custom assemblies across the 48 contiguous states, Alaska, Hawaii, Puerto Rico, and Washington D.C., with delivery timeframes ranging from 7 to 120 days depending on product type.

Activity has declined over the past five years — six awards in 2022 dropping to one award each in 2025 and 2026 — though the recent May 2026 Hoover Dam contract signals continued OEM sole-source opportunity. Only two awards face recompete within the next twenty-four months, with a combined potential value of $55 thousand. Worthington subcontracts minimally (1% of footprint): a $2 thousand sub-award under Fluor Federal Petroleum Operations for crash security barriers (October 2024) and a Tuff Boom and pile eyebolt supply under Kiewit Infrastructure South Co (December 2021). The company also holds a single federal grant award as recipient under the USDA Rural Business Cooperative Services REAP renewable energy grant program (awarded September 2024, completion September 2026).

Company provides floating waterway barriers and buoys used to control floating debris, boater/dam safety, anti-terrorist floating barricades.
