About the company
Carolina Power Systems Of Sumter Inc., a veteran-owned, minority-owned small business manufacturer headquartered in Sumter, South Carolina, supplies power distribution equipment and electronic components to the Department of Defense and other federal agencies as a prime contractor on 372 of its 394 recent awards (94%) and as a subcontractor to major defense primes on 22 awards (6%). The company is a subsidiary of Bolden, Newby & Sons Incorporated, a minority-owned, self-certified small disadvantaged business also based in Sumter.
Carolina Power Systems operates predominantly in full-and-open competition—very few awards carry set-aside designations—and competes across three primary NAICS categories: Relay and Industrial Control Manufacturing (62 awards), Other Electronic Component Manufacturing (54 awards), and Other Measuring and Controlling Device Manufacturing (54 awards). The company manufactures circuit card assemblies, motor starters, motor controllers, relay assemblies, distribution boxes, control panels, circuit breakers, power distribution panels, and related electrical and electronic components for naval and maritime applications. Representative prime work includes a $1.39 million delivery order from Naval Sea Systems Command in August 2023 for Combat Management System Multi-Function Monitor (CPS MFM) shipsets with completion through February 2026, a $1.05 million delivery order from Naval Sea Systems Command in August 2023 for CPS MFM shipset procurement, and a $389.7 thousand purchase order from Naval Supply Systems Command in June 2023 for PCB module assemblies.
Customer concentration is sharp and Navy-heavy. Naval Sea Systems Command dominates both potential value ($15.4 million across 36 awards) and strategic importance; Defense Logistics Agency Land and Maritime leads by award count (233 awards, $4.3 million combined potential value) but at lower per-order magnitude; Naval Supply Systems Command, the Coast Guard, and DLA Aviation round out the top five. The top five customer agencies account for 96% of recent awards and 100% of combined potential value. Naval Sea Systems Command holds two significant indefinite delivery/indefinite quantity contracts with Carolina Power Systems valued at $4.9 million and $2.7 million for commercial power systems equipment, components, software, and engineering services supporting Navy surface vessels and submarines. Carolina Power Systems also places work under DLA IDCs and a Coast Guard blanket purchase agreement.
Activity has remained stable to modestly growing—42 awards in 2022, a dip to 31 in 2023, recovery to 42 in 2024, and 46 in 2025. Nineteen awards with combined potential value of $1.4 million complete within the next twenty-four months, representing moderate recompete exposure. Recent annual award volume has averaged 37 awards; the vendor's award velocity and customer concentration suggest reliance on repeat procurement cycles from a narrow set of Navy and DLA buyers.
Carolina Power Systems subcontracts to Huntington Ingalls Incorporated on multiple Littoral Combat Ship and Guided Missile Destroyer construction and modernization efforts—work includes controller motors, tank-related components, and engineering change requests on LPD-30, LPD-31, LPD-32, DDG-51 class destroyers, and related surface combatant platforms. The vendor also subcontracts to GE Energy Power Conversion USA Inc. on Coast Guard icebreaker switchgear and low-voltage electrical upgrades. Across SCI-reportable prime service contracts, the vendor's workforce footprint is minimal—roughly 1.7 FTEs in FY2022 and 0.8 FTEs in FY2024—indicating that SCI-captured service work represents a small slice of the company's total federal delivery. The company's federal revenue is dominated by goods procurement (electrical components manufactured and delivered on purchase orders), not labor-intensive services.
Place of performance for all work is Sumter, South Carolina. The vendor's positioning as a reliable manufacturer of Navy power distribution equipment, embedded in two large IDIQ relationships with Naval Sea Systems Command and with established subcontracting relationships to Huntington Ingalls and GE Energy, positions it as a stable supplier on incremental naval shipbuilding and modernization programs rather than a growth vehicle for new capability areas.
