Electrical Equipment Co

Electrical Equipment Co, operating as the Electrical Equipment Company Division, supplies industrial electrical equipment, programmable logic controllers, automation components, and related hardware to the federal government primarily as a prime contractor (92% of recent awards), competing predominantly full-and-open with occasional total small business set-asides. A for-profit small business headquartered in Norfolk, Virginia, Electrical Equipment Co specializes in Allen-Bradley and Rockwell Automation products, networking and switching components, power management systems, and technical support services across defense and civilian agencies.

The vendor's customer concentration is heavily skewed toward Navy and Defense Logistics Agency buyers. The top five customers by award count account for 71% of recent awards, led by Naval Sea Systems Command (114 awards, $1.2 million combined potential value), Defense Logistics Agency Land and Maritime (74 awards, $1.6 million), and Defense Logistics Agency Aviation (64 awards, $184 thousand), with NASA's Shared Services Center and DLA Troop Support rounding out the active set. However, the potential-value ranking diverges sharply: Naval Air Warfare Center anchors 93% of the combined potential-value share at $16.5 million across just 18 awards, reflecting a portfolio weighted toward a few large delivery orders against smaller catalog purchases at other Navy and DLA components. This concentration mismatch signals vulnerability to recompete risk on the Naval Air Warfare Center IDC while the Naval Sea Systems Command relationship, though high-volume, carries smaller individual order values.

Electrical Equipment Co places work under two principal parent vehicles. The Indefinite Delivery Contract N6833521D0047 with Naval Air Warfare Center carries 14 task orders valued at $5.5 million combined potential value and supports Abaco Systems computing and networking products for naval aviation operations. Indefinite Delivery Contract N0018907A0164 issues 11 task orders at $90 thousand combined value. The vendor also appears on Seaport Next Generation, though activity on that vehicle is minimal. Representative prime work includes a $782,614 delivery order from Naval Air Warfare Center (March 2025) for computing components, a $328,257 Naval Air Warfare Center single-board-computer delivery order (September 2025), a $1.15 million Naval Air Warfare Center delivery order (September 2024) for Abaco Systems electrical and networking products, a $127,864 Allen-Bradley hardware purchase order from NASA Langley (April 2026) for servo motors and control components, a $111,295 Allen-Bradley control-system upgrade from NASA Langley (April 2025), and a $186,827 Defense Logistics Agency strapping procurement (September 2024) as a total small business set-aside.

Activity has moderated recently: 20 awards in 2022, declining to 12 in 2023, recovering to 28 in 2024, 24 in 2025, and 9 in the first nine months of 2026. Combined potential value across all 438 awards totals $23.2 million with $17.2 million obligated (74% realization). The recompete cliff is minimal — only three awards with ultimate completion in the next twenty-four months carry $187 thousand combined potential value, suggesting limited near-term exposure to major recompete campaigns.

Electrical Equipment Co subcontracts to large defense primes on ship construction and modernization. Huntington Ingalls is the dominant prime partner, with 28 subcontract awards spanning CVN 80/81 detailed design and construction (covering electrical connectors, filters, pumps, switches, and semiconductors), CVN 75 refueling and complex overhaul advance planning, and CVN 68 inactivation and defueling tasks. HII Fleet Support Group holds additional sub work on USS George H. W. Bush material support. The vendor also subs to Mantech Advanced Systems International on CI&IDS Division network-switch systems engineering (September 2024), Noblis MSD on Navy engineering (November 2024), and Amentum Technology on NASA Langley Shared Services Center maintenance and engineering (September 2026). All subcontract work falls within the vendor's core electrical-components and automation-equipment capability.

The vendor's award footprint spans 26 distinct federal agencies, concentrated in Navy (Naval Sea Systems Command, Naval Air Warfare Center, Naval Supply Systems Command, Naval Air Systems Command), Defense Logistics Agency (Land and Maritime, Aviation, Troop Support), NASA Langley (via Shared Services Center), Marine Corps, and Department of Defense Aviation. NAICS distribution reflects component and manufacturing supply: 70 awards under miscellaneous electrical equipment manufacturing (335999), 61 under electrical equipment wholesaling (425610), 34 under ship building and repair (336611), and concentrations in wiring devices and electronic components. PSC spend clusters around electrical hardware and supplies (46 awards), electric lamps (25 awards), fuses and protectors (24 awards), and connectors (24 awards), signaling a catalog-supplier posture with high volume at low unit cost alongside occasional systems-integration and maintenance orders.
