B W Electric, Inc.

B W Electric, Inc., doing business as BW Systems, is a Colorado Springs-based small business systems integrator that designs, installs, and maintains physical and electronic security systems for federal facilities, military installations, and health centers, operating predominantly as a prime contractor (99% of recent awards) on full-and-open purchase orders and delivery orders with no set-aside designation.

BW Systems specializes in physical access control systems (PACS), closed-circuit television (CCTV), intrusion detection systems, fire alarm technologies, and related security infrastructure. The company has maintained active SAM.gov registration since October 2001 and operates across 28 distinct federal customer agencies. Recent representative work spans a $449,439.79 CCTV replacement delivery order from the Department of Defense Southwest Region (ultimate completion August 1, 2026), a $264,041.25 firm fixed-price purchase order from Army Forces Command for physical security systems at 4th Cavalry Airfield in Colorado Springs (completion September 29, 2026), a $149,159.77 Indian Health Service contract modification for security infrastructure maintenance at Kayenta, Arizona, a $98,821.91 Department of the Army purchase order for access control system updates to the 10th Special Forces Group (Airborne), and a $97,234.80 multi-year Department of the Army purchase order for Lenel OnGuard software updates and maintenance running through September 29, 2026.

Customer concentration reflects a defense-focused footprint. The top five customer agencies account for 58% of awards by count but only 19% of combined potential value, indicating a high volume of smaller transactional awards offset by larger dollar exposure concentrated in Army Installation Management Command Southwest Region ($449 thousand across two awards) and Army Forces Command ($399 thousand across two awards). The Air Force holds the largest award count at 32 awards ($117 thousand combined potential value), while Air Force Space Command follows with 15 awards ($311 thousand), and the Indian Health Service anchors civilian health-facility work with nine awards ($304 thousand).

BW Systems holds positions on the GSA Multiple Award Schedule (24 task orders, $789 thousand combined potential value) and several Army and Air Force indefinite delivery contracts, including IDC F0561192D0002 (7 task orders), IDC F0560484C0063 (2 task orders), and a single Alliant II task order. The portfolio spans security systems services (56 awards), electrical contracting (4 awards), and related communications and IT support work classified under PSC codes for alarm and security detection systems, maintenance and repair, and installations.

Activity has remained modest and variable — five awards in 2022, six in 2023, two in 2024, six in 2025, and two so far in 2026 — with combined potential value of $9.2 million across the entire 112-award portfolio and obligated dollars at $4.8 million (51% of potential value). Eight awards carrying $1 million in combined potential value reach ultimate completion within the next twenty-four months, representing recompete opportunity. The company subcontracts minimally; one recent sub-award places BW Systems under CACI, Inc. Federal for data transport product support and facilities installation services as of April 25, 2025. BW Systems does not compete under 8(a), HUBZone, SDVOSB, or WOSB set-asides; nearly all recent awards carry no set-aside designation, with a small number designated as Total Small Business or Partial Small Business reflecting the vendor's small-business status rather than strategic set-aside positioning.
