B & D Electric, Inc.

B & D Electric, Inc., a small business Subchapter S Corporation headquartered in Shoals, Indiana, delivers electrical infrastructure services—power distribution upgrades, fiber optic installation, lighting modernization, generator placement, and emergency repairs—to the U.S. Department of Defense as a prime contractor across 309 awards with combined potential value of $157.4 million. The vendor operates exclusively as a prime (100% of awards) and competes under Total Small Business set-asides on a subset of work; most recent awards carry no set-aside designation and compete full-and-open.

B & D Electric's customer footprint concentrates heavily on the Department of the Navy. The top three funding agencies account for 91% of recent awards by count: the Naval Facilities Engineering Command leads with 64 awards valued at $84.1 million combined potential value, followed by Naval Sea Systems Command with 98 awards worth $45.3 million, and Navy Installations Command with 42 awards valued at $7.7 million. The Department of the Army rounds out the active set with 28 awards ($12.9 million). This concentration reflects the vendor's two-decade operational presence at Naval Support Activity Crane in Crane, Indiana, where nearly all work is performed. The two customer-ranking metrics align closely—Naval Facilities Engineering Command dominates both volume and dollars—indicating sustained, large-dollar relationships rather than many small orders from any single agency.

B & D Electric holds two principal IDIQ vehicles with the Naval Facilities Engineering Command. The $45 million single-award contract (awarded August 26, 2024, through August 25, 2029) carries a Total Small Business set-aside and anchors the vendor's capacity at Crane and the Glendora Test Facility in Sullivan, Indiana. A second IDIQ, valued at $27 million and effective through August 2024, is now expired but appears in the source material describing prior task-order work. Under these vehicles, the vendor executes firm fixed-price delivery orders ranging from emergency response work at $2,000 to major infrastructure projects exceeding $4 million. Representative recent task orders include a $3.28 million fiber optic upgrade at Naval Weapons Station Crane (awarded April 10, 2026), a $2.47 million delivery order to replace sections of the East Tile Line and associated power lines (awarded February 24, 2025, completion June 30, 2027), a $4.65 million secure fiber infrastructure installation (awarded May 15, 2024, completion September 15, 2026), and a $2.18 million reconductoring project for West Crane and Warehouse circuits (awarded February 24, 2025, completion June 30, 2026). The vendor also executes smaller-value routine maintenance and emergency support orders, such as $9,111 for UPS maintenance and $13,417 for area communications line repair, both awarded in April 2026.

Activity has remained steady over the past five years—22 awards in 2022, 21 in 2023, 25 in 2024, 22 in 2025, and 3 year-to-date in 2026—with combined obligated dollars of $65.7 million (42% of potential value). Ten awards with ultimate completion dates in the next twenty-four months carry combined potential value of $15.6 million and will face recompete within that window. The vendor's capability portfolio spans electrical PSC codes dominated by Repair Or Alteration Of Other Utilities (114 awards) and Maintenance Of Other Utilities (77 awards), with smaller shares in equipment repair and ammunition facility work. Under NAICS 238210 (Electrical Contractors), B & D Electric's work centers on power distribution system modernization, fiber optic cabling and communications infrastructure, lighting upgrades, generator and backup power systems, and emergency electrical response at naval installations. The vendor's sustained relationship at Crane—more than one hundred firm fixed-price delivery orders since 2019—demonstrates established capability and pre-negotiated rates that support rapid execution of both planned modernization and emergency response work.
