Agency mix and customer concentration
The Department of the Army accounts for nearly all of the vendor’s obligated value, with $2.37 billion across 998 awards, making it the clear anchor customer. The remaining federal activity is comparatively limited and fragmented, led by the U.S. Coast Guard at $47.78 million across 689 awards, followed by DARPA, the Department of the Navy, and the FBI at much smaller totals.
Industry profile based on NAICS activity
Award activity is heavily concentrated in NAICS 488190, Other Support Activities for Air Transportation, which represents $2.36 billion across 957 awards and explains most of the vendor’s value base. Secondary activity appears in aircraft parts manufacturing under NAICS 336413, while smaller obligations in wireless equipment manufacturing, R&D, and engineering services suggest a narrower set of technical support and development functions beyond air transportation support.
