The company is a graduate of the Small Business Administration’s 8(a) program, which offers business assistance and services to firms that are owned and controlled by socially and economically disadvantaged individuals.
“We’re incredibly proud to have won this award, representing not only S&K Aerospace, but the entire S&K family of companies and the CSKT. We have built a strong and profitable business that contributes to the progress and well-being of our Tribal community, while providing incredible service to our customers,” Tony Amadeo, president of S&K Aerospace, said in a statement.
Formed in 2005, S&K Aerospace supports the supply and component repair requirements of the U.S. military and over 100 foreign military allies, according to a news release.
Last fall, the company announced it had been awarded prime contracts by the Defense Logistics Agency Land and Maritime to support Army vehicle maintenance.
