Electric Boat Corporation

Electric Boat Corporation, operating as General Dynamics Electric Boat, manufactures specialized submarine-related components, mechanical fasteners, sealing devices, hydraulic systems, and electronic assemblies for the U.S. Navy as a prime contractor in full-and-open federal procurements with no small-business set-asides. The company is a subsidiary of General Dynamics Corp, headquartered in Groton, Connecticut, with operations in Poquonock Bridge, Connecticut.

Electric Boat competes almost exclusively as a prime contractor—9,461 of 9,505 recent awards (100%) are prime positions. The company's footprint spans 9,505 federal awards with combined potential value of $198.19 billion, though activity has decelerated sharply: 486 awards in 2022 dropped to 126 awards in 2026 year-to-date. The 205 awards reaching completion in the next twenty-four months carry combined potential value of $34.9 billion and represent significant recompete exposure. The company holds no SBA certifications and does not pursue set-aside work.

Customer concentration sits heavily with the Navy. The Department of the Navy Naval Sea Systems Command dominates by dollar value—1,319 awards worth $114.27 billion combined potential value (58% of the vendor's total portfolio). The broader Department of the Navy accounts for 627 additional awards worth $82.66 billion. Defense Logistics Agency Land and Maritime places the most orders by count (2,874 awards) but with modest dollar values ($37.3 million combined); DLA Aviation adds 1,422 awards ($27.6 million). Naval Supply Systems Command, the third-largest customer by award count, carries 1,381 awards worth $83.6 million. Collectively, these five customer organizations represent 84% of all awards.

Electric Boat's capability work breaks down by NAICS and PSC into precise, high-specification manufacturing. The top five NAICS categories are Ship Building and Repairing (1,402 awards), Bolt, Nut, Screw, Rivet, and Washer Manufacturing (1,163 awards), Gasket, Packing, and Sealing Device Manufacturing (575 awards), Bare Printed Circuit Board Manufacturing (555 awards), and Hardware Manufacturing (454 awards). PSC concentration mirrors this profile: Screws (622 awards), Packing and Gasket Materials (605 awards), Electrical and Electronic Assemblies (482 awards), Hose, Pipe, Tube, and Railing Fittings (476 awards), and Nuts and Washers (431 awards). Recent named work includes a $930.4 million sole-source definitive contract with Naval Sea Systems Command for defense industry vendor qualification and FMS shipbuilder support (awarded April 23, 2026, through April 26, 2031, cost-plus-fixed-fee), a $57.1 million cost-plus-fixed-fee contract for operation and maintenance of the government-owned, contractor-operated floating dry-dock SHIPPINGPORT (ARDM-4) (awarded April 9, 2026, through April 8, 2031), and a $1.986 billion sole-source pressure transducer definitive contract (awarded January 5, 2026, through August 31, 2027). The company executes hundreds of discrete purchase orders annually for components—fasteners, assemblies, valves, hose, circuit boards, transducers—in the sub-million range, typically firm fixed-price.

Electric Boat operates primarily under a single-award indefinite delivery contract with Naval Sea Systems Command (N0002405G4417) carrying 300 task orders worth $192.3 million in combined potential value. A second Navy IDC (N0002402G2910) carries 115 task orders ($8.3 million). A third vehicle (N0002496G2119) has 100 task orders with no aggregate dollar value stated in the source. Two additional Navy vehicles (N0010410GA302 and N0010415GA402) carry 98 and 97 task orders respectively. The company also holds a single-award $350,000 indefinite delivery contract with Defense Logistics Agency Land and Maritime (awarded May 22, 2026, through May 22, 2027) for electrical connector plugs.

Electric Boat subcontracts to two major primes: Lockheed Martin Corp, on two named awards for weapon system development and program-of-record extension (January 22, 2025, and February 18, 2025), and General Dynamics Mission Systems, Inc., on FY24 fire control omnibus and MEDUSA system design sub work (January 8, 2025, and July 21, 2025). Sub-engagement is minimal; the SCI dataset records only 15 total service contracts (12 prime, 3 as named sub), with zero invoiced revenue and 1.2 FTEs in FY2025, indicating this vendor operates almost entirely on goods procurement and classified or non-reportable service work. The vendor is not captured meaningfully by Service Contract Inventory.

Teaming is light. Electric Boat operates as the system integrator and component manufacturer rather than a teaming-dependent prime; sub-engagement metrics show 0% average sub-hours share across prime contracts. The company builds its own delivery capability and does not rely on widespread subcontractor networks for core manufacturing work.
