Collins Power Systems Inc.

Collins Power Systems Inc. Power Systems Division, a woman-owned and veteran-owned small business based in Guilford, Indiana, supplies and installs backup generators, automatic transfer switches, and related electrical infrastructure to federal agencies as a prime contractor exclusively under total small business or woman-owned small business set-asides. The vendor competes entirely under small business set-asides across its 40-award federal footprint, with no full-and-open or subcontractor work in the source data.

Collins operates in a narrow, specialized capability domain: generator procurement, installation, and replacement at federal facilities, combined with electrical infrastructure upgrades and load testing. Representative prime work includes a $273,066 U.S. Army Corps of Engineers purchase order (May 2024) for 175 kilowatt 60 Hz generators for the Clearing and Snagging Unit Barge 1401 in Memphis, Tennessee; a $189,634 woman-owned small business sole-source definitive contract from the U.S. Air Force Reserve Command (January 2026) for removal and replacement of emergency generators at Grissom Air Reserve Base in Indiana; and a $152,185 National Park Service contract (September 2023) for emergency backup generator and transfer switch installation at four locations in Yosemite National Park. Smaller awards cluster around single-site generator replacements at federal correctional institutions, wildlife refuges, and Army Corps of Engineers facilities, typically ranging from $40 thousand to $150 thousand per order.

Customer concentration is diffuse by agency count but concentrated by dollar value. The top five customers by award count account for 43% of recent awards, led by the Army Corps of Engineers (6 awards, $767 thousand combined potential value) and its Huntington District (4 awards, $241 thousand). The top five by potential value account for 47% of combined dollars, with the Army Corps of Engineers anchoring the list followed by two large Bureau of Prisons orders at Memphis ($625 thousand) and Sandstone ($372 thousand) federal correctional institutions. The Department of the Interior National Park Service Pacific West Region ranks third by both count and value (3 awards, $267 thousand), with generator replacements at Yosemite and other park facilities. Across the 40-award set, Collins has served 27 distinct customer agencies, indicating a broad but shallow federal footprint.

Award volume has remained flat to modest — 2 to 4 awards per year since 2022, with only 2 awards recorded in 2026 to date. Only two awards carry ultimate completion dates within the next twenty-four months (combined potential value $266 thousand), placing minimal recompete exposure in the near term. The vendor's work splits primarily across electrical contracting (13 awards under NAICS 238210) and generator manufacturing/procurement (8 awards under NAICS 335312), with secondary exposure in repair and maintenance and power-line construction. By product service code, 12 awards cluster under "Generators and Generator Sets, Electrical," with the remainder spread across transfer switches, electrical equipment installation, and penal facility repair. All 40 awards are obligated at 100% of potential value, indicating completed or nearly completed performance across the historical set.
