Advanced Steel & Crane

What Advanced Steel & Crane does

ASC, Inc., operating as Advanced Steel & Crane, is a privately held U.S. steel fabricator founded in 1970 and headquartered in Tulsa, Oklahoma. The company designs, engineers, fabricates, and supplies custom steel support structures for the North American power delivery sector, serving Power Utilities and EPC (Engineering, Procurement, and Construction) firms. Core product lines include transmission structures (H-Frames, Tapered Tubular, Monopole Towers, Lattice Towers), substation structures (A-Frames, Switch Structures, Bus Supports, Lightning Masts, Bracings), and distribution poles. Adjacent offerings span anchor bolt cages, traffic structures for DOT applications, telecommunications structures, PV solar panel mounting structures, stairs/gratings/railings, steel fasteners, aluminum substation connectors, and custom lattice for transmission and distribution.

Operations are concentrated at a single 8+ acre Tulsa manufacturing facility equipped with CNC machinery including a Brake Press, CNC Angle Line, CNC Plate Processor, CNC Saw, and a state-of-the-art CNC seam welding machine built specifically for the company. All products are engineered and manufactured in-house and can be supplied as Galvanized, Weathering Steel (ASTM-871), Dulled, or Painted to customer specifications. The company holds ISO 9001:2015 Quality Management System accreditation, AWS D.1.1 welding standard compliance, and OSHA-compliant operations, with AWS-certified welders and quality inspectors holding Level-II Ultrasonic, Visual, Penetrant, and Magnetic Particle Testing certifications.

The business model is project-based, direct-to-enterprise manufacturing: revenue is generated through custom fabrication orders priced by weight, material, voltage rating, and structural complexity, with multi-year contract billing cadence. There are no resellers or intermediaries. The company relies on direct field sales, its website, and industry certifications (ISO-9001, AWS, CWB) for demand generation, and has won the 2015 Oklahoma Manufacturing Leadership Award, the 2017 Crystal Star Manufacturer of the Year, and the 2018 SBA Exporter of the Year. No external investors, parent company, or subsidiary structure is disclosed, and the company appears to be founder- or family-owned.
