ABOUT US
The Central Oklahoma Manufacturers Association (COMA) was established in July 1999 by 19 manufacturers representing a five-county region in central Oklahoma. Since its founding, the organization has grown to more than 150 members across the state, serving as a collaborative network for manufacturers to connect, share best practices, and strengthen Oklahoma's manufacturing industry.
COMA hosts bimonthly meetings in February, April, June, August, October, and December. At each meeting, the Board of Directors invites industry experts to present on topics relevant to manufacturers, providing members with valuable insights into current trends, challenges, and opportunities. Each year, COMA also hosts a Legislative Forum, where members of the Oklahoma Legislature meet with manufacturers to discuss issues affecting the industry and receive direct feedback and recommendations from the manufacturing community.
Annual membership dues are based on membership type and company revenue. Manufacturing companies with annual revenues under $5 million pay $150 per fiscal year (July–June), while manufacturers with annual revenues of $5 million or more pay $250 per fiscal year. Affiliate Members—companies that provide products or services in support of the manufacturing industry—pay $500 per company, per fiscal year. COMA is an affiliate of the Oklahoma Alliance for Manufacturing Excellence (OK Alliance), further strengthening its commitment to supporting manufacturing excellence throughout Oklahoma.
