Chesapeake Mission Critical LLC

Chesapeake Mission Critical LLC, doing business as Cheasapeake Mission Critical, is a foreign-owned for-profit limited liability company based in Beltsville, Maryland, that provides uninterruptible power supply (UPS) equipment, maintenance, battery replacement, and emergency repair services to federal agencies as a prime contractor (99% of awards). The vendor operates as a child entity within Fidelity Engineering, LLC (Fidelity Building Services Group), a foreign-owned parent company.

Chesapeake Mission Critical's capability portfolio centers on mission-critical power infrastructure: Eaton-certified UPS maintenance, preventative servicing, battery replacement, system installation, and emergency repair across federal data centers, laboratories, and operational facilities. The vendor is an Eaton-authorized service partner with exclusive access to proprietary Eaton service software for 3-phase UPS products, a positioning that has secured sole-source justifications on several federal procurements. Representative work includes a $164,140 Eaton UPS maintenance contract with the National Institute of Child Health and Human Development (NICHD) running through September 2031, a $164,847 NIST Eaton service agreement under Total Small Business set-aside extending through March 2030, a $178,986 Naval Sea Systems Command battery replacement order for three Eaton UPS systems at the Naval Surface Warfare Center Dahlgren Division, a $131,158 NIST sole-source special notice procurement for service life extension on Eaton 9390 systems supporting the Biometrics Research Lab, and a $124,133 Smithsonian Institution contract for UPS installation and battery replacement across multiple sites including the National Museum of African American History and Culture.

Customer concentration is extreme and anchored by civilian agencies. NIST accounts for 32 awards totaling $4.5 million in combined potential value (46% of the total portfolio); the Smithsonian Institution represents 20 awards valued at $295 thousand; the Department of the Navy Naval Sea Systems Command holds 7 awards worth $333 thousand; the Department of Agriculture Agricultural Research Service Central Program Planning Coordination and Support accounts for 7 awards at $236 thousand; and the Department of Veterans Affairs Veterans Health Administration Veterans Integrated Service Network 4 holds 6 awards at $157 thousand. Together the top five customer agencies account for 42% of all awards and 61% of combined potential value. The two customer rankings align closely around the NIST anchor — NIST dominates both volume and dollars — but the Office of the Secretary of Defense and Naval Installations Command surface in the potential-value ranking due to individual contract sizes rather than award frequency.

The vendor operates under a Blanket Purchase Agreement (DEMA0004923) with 7 task orders valued at $281 thousand and holds positions on the Multiple Award Schedule with 2 task orders. Work is performed at dispersed federal locations including NIST facilities in Gaithersburg and Calverton, Maryland; Smithsonian sites in Washington, D.C.; Naval Surface Warfare Center Dahlgren Division in Virginia; Aberdeen Proving Ground, Maryland; and subordinate federal offices nationwide. Award activity has declined sharply: the vendor received 10 awards in 2022, 9 in 2023, 5 in 2024, 1 in 2025, and 4 in 2026 (through December). Four awards with combined potential value of $312 thousand reach ultimate completion within the next twenty-four months, presenting recompete risk.

Approximately 71% of awards carry Total Small Business or no set-aside designation; the vendor competes in both full-and-open and small business set-aside channels without a dominant set-aside posture. The vendor operates almost entirely as a prime contractor (171 of 172 awards) with minimal subcontractor footprint — one sub-award on a Fidelity Engineering parent company contract with 3D Envirologics LLC as the prime. Service Contract Inventory data is sparse: the dataset captures only 2 SCI-reportable records (1 prime, 1 as named subcontractor) spanning FY2022–FY2024, with zero invoiced revenue in FY2022 and 0.1 FTEs reported in FY2024 as a subcontractor. This sparse SCI coverage reflects that Chesapeake Mission Critical's federal work is dominated by goods procurement (batteries, UPS equipment), maintenance purchase orders, and labor-hour-capped service contracts below or near the SCI $150,000 reporting threshold.
