About the company
Bubble Technology Industries Inc., doing business as BTI, is a Canadian manufacturer and research-and-development firm based in Chalk River, Ontario, that provides secondary neutron air cargo screening (SNACS) systems and specialized radiation-detection instrumentation to the U.S. federal government as a prime contractor (92% of recent awards). BTI operates as a for-profit organization with no SBA set-aside certifications; all prime awards are full-and-open competitive.
BTI's customer base is highly concentrated with the Department of Homeland Security Countering Weapons of Mass Destruction office, which accounts for 7 of 12 recent prime awards and $24.2 million of the $24.5 million combined potential value across the entire award portfolio—effectively 99% of BTI's federal dollar exposure. The remaining four customer agencies (the Department of the Navy, the Department of State, and the Department of the Army) collectively represent a single award below $100 thousand in combined potential value. BTI's award footprint splits across research-and-development (five awards in R&D services) and analytical laboratory instrument manufacturing (three awards), with supporting work in measuring and testing instrumentation.
Recent prime work centers on DHS C-WMD radiation detection and cargo screening. BTI was awarded a $5.2 million cost-plus-fixed-fee definitive contract on September 29, 2025, to provide Secondary Neutron Air Cargo Screening services over five years through September 2027—the single recompete exposure in the next twenty-four months. Earlier work included a $697 thousand R&D contract (September 2022–October 2023) for thallium bromide capacitive Frisch grid core detector module development, also funded by DHS C-WMD. BTI holds a single named subcontract role, awarded January 7, 2026, as a subcontractor to General Dynamics Information Technology for global security engineering and supply-chain services.
Activity has been sparse and uneven—one or three awards per year from 2018 through 2025, with five year-long gaps. SCI-reported invoiced revenue on federal service contracts above the $150 thousand threshold totaled $1.9 million across FY2022–FY2024, with workforce scaled from 2.9 FTEs in FY2022 down to 0.1 FTEs in FY2024 as contracts completed. On federal service work captured in SCI, government-paid hourly rates ran around $152/hr at the median, ranging from roughly $109/hr at the tenth percentile through $174/hr at the ninetieth percentile. Across SCI-reportable prime contracts, subcontractors performed an average of 24% of total contractor hours; BTI engaged eleven named subcontractors across the period.
