Beck Electric Supply Co, Incorporated

Beck Electric Supply Co, Incorporated Seattle Division, doing business as Beck Electric Supply Co, is a self-certified small disadvantaged business supplying electrical components, cables, connectors, lighting fixtures, and maritime-specific equipment to the U.S. Navy and federal maritime agencies as a prime contractor on firm fixed-price purchase orders. The vendor operates as a child entity of Beck Electric Supply (also known as Dahl-Beck Electric), headquartered in Richmond, California, and maintains its Seattle division at 80 South Horton Street in Seattle, Washington.

Beck Electric's federal footprint is narrow and deep. The company has executed 1,425 prime awards across four decades, with combined potential value of $13.8 million and combined obligated dollars of $17.4 million—indicating mature, repeat work and consistent overages against initial ceiling values. Activity has held steady at 12–18 awards per year over the past five years (2022: 12 awards; 2023: 18 awards; 2024: 14 awards; 2025: 18 awards; 2026: 4 awards year-to-date). The vendor competes predominantly under Total Small Business set-asides, which account for approximately 60 percent of its federal contract portfolio; the remaining 40 percent reflects full-and-open competitions where Beck Electric has demonstrated competitive standing.

Customer concentration is extreme and represents the core business signal: Naval Sea Systems Command dominates with 998 awards and $10.4 million in combined potential value, accounting for 70 percent of the total award count and 75 percent of total potential value. The U.S. Pacific Fleet Forces placed 135 awards worth $971 thousand, and the U.S. Coast Guard placed 81 awards worth $1.2 million. These three Navy and Coast Guard customers represent 89 percent of all awards and 93 percent of combined potential value. The remaining 24 customer agencies are minor, with single-digit award counts. Beck Electric has worked with the National Oceanic and Atmospheric Administration, the Defense Logistics Agency Land and Maritime, the U.S. Marine Corps, and Navy Installations Command, but all of these together account for less than 15 awards. Recent representative work includes a $198.8 million Magnetek electrical components procurement from NAVSEA (May 2025), a $139.6 million Magnetek drive procurement from NAVSEA (August 2025), a $80 thousand Fast Response Cutter shore tie equipment package from the Coast Guard (September 2025), and a $53.9 thousand power cable delivery to NAVSEA (September 2025).

Product portfolio clusters around five categories: current-carrying wiring device manufacturing (252 awards), electrical apparatus and equipment merchant wholesaling (224 awards), other communication and energy wire manufacturing (67 awards), miscellaneous electrical equipment manufacturing (50 awards), and switchgear manufacturing (46 awards). PSC coding shows electrical connectors (212 awards) and wire and cable (210 awards) as the dominant delivery lines, followed by electrical hardware and supplies (129 awards), lighting fixtures (59 awards), and electrical control equipment (58 awards). The work consists of small, tactical purchase orders—median ceiling value in the low five figures—for replacement parts, maintenance supplies, and new components supporting shipyard operations at Puget Sound Naval Shipyard in Bremerton, Washington and naval facilities in the Pacific theater.

Beck Electric maintains minimal parent-vehicle exposure. The vendor places task orders under a handful of single-order IDIQs and one BPA (Blanket Purchase Agreement DTCG4500P6K3005), but the top parent vehicles each carry only one task order. The company does not sit on government-wide acquisition contracts or large agency-wide IDIQs; it competes on direct solicitations posted by Defense Logistics Agency Maritime and NAVSEA. Subcontracting activity is negligible—one sub award in the source data (a January 2026 low-rate initial production enclosure delivery to Vigor Works LLC for NAVSEA). Beck Electric operates as a pure naval electrical-parts supplier rather than a systems integrator or teaming partner.

The corporate structure identifies Beck Electric Supply as the parent entity, registered in SAM.gov since 2001, also doing business as Dahl-Beck Electric. The child entity (Beck Electric Supply Co, Seattle Division) inherits the parent's small disadvantaged business certification and leverages established relationships with NAVSEA and Pacific Fleet Forces. No significant recompete cliff is present in the source data; the vendor's award velocity is steady-state repetition of small purchase orders, each with short performance periods (typically 30–60 days), making individual contract expiration a rolling renewal cycle rather than a major program recompete event. However, the extreme customer concentration with NAVSEA and the Pacific Fleet—together representing 79 percent of potential value—creates vulnerability to shifts in Navy procurement strategy or budget constraints in those two organizations.
