GE Grid Solutions LLC

GE Grid Solutions LLC, a subsidiary of General Electric Company, supplies specialized electrical transmission and distribution equipment, replacement parts, and maintenance services to federal civilian power agencies as a prime contractor with no small-business set-aside designation. The company competes in full-and-open federal procurement and does not subcontract — 100% of its 60 recent federal awards are prime positions.

GE Grid Solutions operates as a manufacturer of electrical goods, with a capability portfolio centered on high-voltage power infrastructure equipment and software. Representative prime work includes a $598,692 firm fixed-price purchase order from the Western Area Power Administration for bushing and arrestor replacement, repair parts, and services at Parker Dam (ultimate completion September 2025); a $491,830 sole-source purchase order from the U.S. Army Corps of Engineers, Walla Walla District, for six GE DGA900 Kelman Dissolved Gas Analyzers and two base units for the Lower Monumental Project (awarded May 2024); a $288,189 purchase order from USACE for a MULTITRANS ONLINE DGA Monitor (awarded June 2023); and a $247,372 purchase order from WAPA for annual renewal of software licenses and maintenance for GE PowerOn EMS, Nexant, and SISCO MSS-EASE systems across Loveland, Colorado and Phoenix, Arizona (awarded January 2022). GE Grid Solutions also holds a Department of Energy cooperative-agreement grant (CFDA implicit in grantor Advanced Research Projects Agency) awarded April 2022 for development of an eco-friendly outdoor high-voltage AC power circuit breaker to reduce dependence on SF6 technology, with an ultimate completion date of March 31, 2025.

Customer concentration is acute. The Department of Energy's Western Area Power Administration accounts for 25 of 44 tracked awards (73% coverage of the top-five customer block) and $8.7 million of $11.2 million combined potential value across all recent federal work. The second- and third-ranked customers by potential value—the Department of Veterans Affairs Veterans Health Administration Veterans Integrated Service Network 16 and the Department of the Army Corps of Engineers—carry $841 thousand and $790 thousand respectively, underscoring WAPA's dominance. The Southeastern Power Administration, Bureau of Reclamation, and Naval Sea Systems Command complete the customer set with much smaller footprints. GE Grid Solutions operates under a single tracked parent vehicle: Blanket Purchase Agreement DESW0000296, which has generated 5 task orders carrying $239 thousand in combined potential value.

Activity is modest and uneven. Awards per year over the past five years show: 3 in 2021, 6 in 2022, 3 in 2023, 4 in 2024, and 1 in 2026 year-to-date. Only one award reaches ultimate completion inside the next twenty-four months, carrying $144 thousand in potential value and presenting minimal recompete exposure. Combined obligated dollars across all awards total $5.9 million against $11.2 million in combined potential value (53% obligation rate), reflecting typical federal accounting practice on older purchase orders. The company's footprint across NAICS codes shows concentration in Software Publishers (12 awards), Capacitor/Resistor/Coil/Transformer Manufacturing (8 awards), and Power/Distribution/Specialty Transformer Manufacturing (6 awards).
