About the company
Colorado Standby, LLC, a Colorado Springs-based for-profit limited liability company, manufactures and supplies generators and automatic transfer switches to the federal government as a prime contractor on full-and-open delivery orders and indefinite-delivery contracts, with no subcontracting footprint and no SBA set-aside designations on individual task orders despite holding IDIQs with partial small business set-asides.
The vendor's customer base is extremely concentrated: the Department of State's Bureau of Overseas Building Operations accounts for 152 of 167 total awards (93% coverage by count) with $71.2 million of the $71.5 million combined potential value across the entire portfolio, reflecting Colorado Standby's status as the dominant supplier of backup power solutions for U.S. diplomatic facilities worldwide. The remaining customer agencies—the Department of the Interior (Bureau of Reclamation and three National Park Service regions), Department of the Army, Department of the Air Force, and Department of the Navy—together represent fewer than 2% of dollars and serve as ancillary demand. This concentration is decision-flipping: Colorado Standby's federal business is effectively synonymous with DOS/OBO generator procurement.
Colorado Standby holds two parent vehicles through which nearly all work flows. The primary vehicle is Indefinite Delivery Contract 19AQMM21D0018, awarded November 2020 with a $20 million ceiling and ordering authority through November 2025, against which 79 task orders worth $10.2 million have been placed. The second vehicle, DOS Residential Generators IDIQ 2015-2018, generated 69 task orders worth $4.9 million before reaching its ultimate completion date. A recently awarded Indefinite Delivery Contract 19AQMM26D0906 (issued July 31, 2026) carries a $900 thousand ceiling, covers worldwide residential generator supply, and runs through July 30, 2027. Individual delivery orders under these vehicles range from under $20 thousand to $1.555 million (May 2024 order), with firm fixed-price pricing and completion periods typically of one to several months.
Representative work spans generator procurement across DOS facility types. Recent examples include a $1.555 million May 2024 delivery order for generators under vehicle 19AQMM21D0018; a $632.8 thousand May 2024 order for the same vehicle; and a $59.1 thousand March 2025 Total Small Business set-aside purchase order from the Bureau of Reclamation for RAIDS surveillance trailer upgrades, including Onan 2.8 gas generators, fuel tanks, and inverter/charger units per trailer. In September 2026, DOS/OBO issued a $240.9 thousand delivery order with completion required by January 27, 2027 (place of performance Springfield, Virginia), demonstrating ongoing demand.
Activity has been uneven. The source records five awards in 2022, twenty in 2023, eighteen in 2024, one in 2025, and two in 2026. Only one award worth $241 thousand reaches ultimate completion within the next twenty-four months, limiting near-term recompete exposure. Combined dollars obligated total $15.6 million against $71.5 million in combined potential value, meaning 78% of the pipeline remains unobligated—typical for indefinite-quantity vehicles but a signal of future billing runway against the primary DOS/OBO contract before the November 2025 ordering deadline.
Colorado Standby's capability portfolio is narrowly defined. Primary NAICS codes cluster around electrical contractors (82 awards), industrial machinery and equipment wholesaling (70 awards), and generator manufacturing (5 awards). PSC coding reflects the same specificity: Generators and Generator Sets, Electrical accounts for 82 awards; Maintenance of Miscellaneous Buildings for 38; and Quality Control–Electric Wire and Power Distribution Equipment for 16. The vendor does not operate as a systems integrator, facilities manager, or IT service provider—it is a generator and power-equipment manufacturer and supplier serving the backup power and field operations infrastructure needs of U.S. diplomatic and federal field installations worldwide.
