Yankee Microwave, Inc.

Yankee Microwave, Inc., a small business Subchapter S corporation based in Harrison, Maine, installs and maintains Adaptive Central Receive (ACRX) tower and antenna infrastructure for federal law enforcement and defense agencies, operating almost exclusively as a prime contractor (99% of recent awards) under total small business set-asides across the Federal Bureau of Investigation and complementary work with the Army and Department of Homeland Security.

Yankee Microwave's federal footprint is dominated by a single customer and a single vehicle: the FBI's Headquarters Division accounts for 85% of award count (58 awards, $5.8 million combined potential value) and 62% of combined potential value across a $9.4 million total portfolio. Substantially all FBI work flows through a single $3.1 million Indefinite Delivery/Quantity contract (15F06720D0001560) awarded in July 2020 and running through July 2025, which has generated 50 task orders totaling $2.5 million in combined potential value—each delivery order for ACRX tower and rooftop antenna installation at specific FBI field offices and surveillance sites nationwide. Representative delivery orders include a $204 thousand order for Mt. Diablo, Levee Road, and Lindsay Street installations (February 2024), a $185 thousand order for the same sites (February 2024), a $101 thousand order for San Juan, Puerto Rico ACRX tower work (November 2023), and a $88 thousand order for Capitol Center in Columbia, South Carolina (November 2023). Beyond the FBI IDQ, Yankee Microwave holds a $500,000 Federal Supply Schedule contract with GSA Federal Acquisition Service (contract 47QTCA25D0099, awarded April 2025, running through April 2030) under three special item numbers covering information technology professional services, equipment purchase, and materials, which has generated 20 task orders totaling $1.2 million. Secondary customers—DHS Chief Procurement Officer (14 awards, $313 thousand), Army Cyber Command (8 awards, $218 thousand), Navy NASC (3 awards, $84 thousand), and DHS Customs and Border Protection (1 award, $734 thousand)—collectively represent 15% of award count and constitute smaller, episodic engagement.

The GSA Schedule labor portfolio comprises seven categories spanning $55.17 to $102.20 per hour, from entry-level Administrative Specialist and Electro-Mechanical Technician roles requiring high school diplomas to senior Communications Engineer and Program Manager positions requiring bachelor's degrees and up to twelve years of field experience; no security-cleared positions are offered. The price list also includes GAM Electronics antenna products and accessories. Capability framing across the portfolio is narrowly specialized: tower construction, rooftop antenna installation, infrastructure upgrade and maintenance, and communications equipment services—not professional IT services or security operations.

Award activity has been volatile. The vendor received 15 awards in 2023, 10 in 2024, 6 in 2025, and 2 in 2026 (through May), suggesting trailing momentum or a recompete cliff approaching. The recompete exposure is modest: only two awards (combined potential value $208 thousand) complete within the next twenty-four months. However, the FBI IDQ itself expires July 27, 2025—less than one year out—and that vehicle anchors the bulk of the vendor's revenue; recompete of that single contract vehicle will be the determinant of pipeline sustainability. The source does not indicate whether Yankee Microwave has already competed for IDQ renewal or holds a position on a successor vehicle.

Yankee Microwave operates as a near-pure prime contractor with minimal subcontract exposure (1 award, 1% of count). Historical awards span 2002 through 2026; the combined potential value of $9.4 million reflects a modest scale, with $4.9 million obligated to date (52% burn rate). The NAICS footprint reflects the tower-centric business: 64 awards under NAICS 237110 (Power and Communication Line and Related Structures Construction), 22 under 541519 (Other Computer Related Services—likely GSA Schedule catalog sales), and smaller counts in communications equipment repair and manufacturing. The PSC breakdown confirms installer and technical support specialization: 21 awards under professional engineering/technical support, 17 under miscellaneous equipment installation, and 9 each under communications equipment maintenance and electronic components installation.
