What Broken Arrow Incorporated does

Broken Arrow Incorporated is a privately held, family-owned multi-division construction, industrial services, and bulk salt supplier founded in 1972 by Stephen Bunn in Tooele, Utah, and now headquartered in North Salt Lake / Lake Point, Utah. The company operates eight divisions: Salt Operations (bulk road salt from Stansbury Island and kiln-dried salt from Flux, Utah, including Type A/B/C White Salt and the proprietary RapidThaw Red Salt product), Earthwork & Construction (excavation, underground utilities, landfill cell construction, paving), Flux Rail Services (500+ railcar storage spots, transloading, and washout on Union Pacific lines), Commercial Roofing (Duro-Last single-ply membrane systems across the Western U.S., Alaska, and Arizona), Fire Protection (sprinkler and alarm system design and installation), Commercial Plumbing, Electrical Services, and Concrete Services. The company employs over 200 people and serves state DOTs, counties, municipalities, general contractors, developers, and commercial/institutional property owners, with select international project work including U.S. Embassy facilities.

The company's go-to-market is sales-led and direct, with division-specific contacts, a centralized 1-800 number, and project-based or transactional billing across all lines of business. Salt products are sold via truck or rail delivery in bulk truckload or supersack quantities; construction and trades services are delivered through company crews and equipment at customer job sites. Operational technology is limited to standard construction automation — GPS machine control, drone surveys, 3D AutoCAD modeling — with no disclosed AI/ML, software, or data platform components. The business is differentiated primarily by vertical integration (salt production feeding into its own logistics and infrastructure businesses), third-party certifications (Clear Roads QPL through 2030 for multiple salt products), and tenured division leadership averaging 25-35 years of industry experience. No external funding, acquisitions, or parent company affiliations are disclosed; ownership and executive control remain with the Bunn family across generations (Stephen Bunn as Founder/CEO, Jared Bunn as COO, Stefanie Quinn as CAO).
