Illinois Power Marketing Company, LLC

Illinois Power Marketing Company, LLC, doing business as Aemp, is a for-profit energy company headquartered in Irving, Texas, that supplies electricity and electrical utility services to federal government agencies as a prime contractor competing in the full-and-open federal marketplace without set-asides. The company is a subsidiary of Vistra Operations Company LLC.

Aemp's federal contracting footprint centers on bulk electricity supply, electrical line charges, and comprehensive energy management solutions delivered via firm-fixed-price delivery orders to Department of Justice correctional facilities, Department of Veterans Affairs medical centers, and General Services Administration federal buildings across Illinois and the Ameren service territory. Concrete capability work includes a $230,000 delivery order from Federal Correctional Institution Pekin for electric utility services through September 2026, a $1.39 million delivery order from Veterans Integrated Service Network 12 for electricity services at the Danville VA Medical Center through September 2026, and a $677,272.79 delivery order from Federal Correctional Institution Greenville for annual electric supply through September 2026. The company has maintained a sustained contracting presence since at least 2017, with 139 prime awards across recent years totaling $75.7 million in combined potential value.

Customer concentration is heavily weighted to the Bureau of Prisons. The top five funding agencies account for 94 percent of award count. The Department of Justice Bureau of Prisons dominates volume: United States Penitentiary Marion (66 awards, $4.9 million), Federal Correctional Institution Pekin (23 awards, $4 million), and Federal Correctional Institution Greenville (22 awards, $5.3 million) collectively represent approximately 73 percent of all awards. The Department of Veterans Affairs Veterans Integrated Service Network 12 and 15 anchor the dollar concentration, carrying $19.3 million and $8.2 million in combined potential value respectively. A significant gap appears between volume and value rankings: the Defense Logistics Agency Energy holds only 2 awards but carries $20.8 million in combined potential value, suggesting high-value, multi-year energy commodity contracts that dwarf the monthly utility delivery orders to correctional facilities.

Aemp operates under three primary parent vehicles. The largest is a $12.4 million single-award GSA Public Buildings Service Indefinite Delivery Contract (47PA0724D0001, ultimate completion April 1, 2027) for electric supply and related services to federal facilities in the Ameren service territory in Illinois, which has generated 41 task orders worth $11.6 million. A second parent vehicle, IDC 47PA0420D0102, has produced 66 task orders valued at $7.9 million. A Basic Ordering Agreement (GS00P17PDA0004) carries 25 task orders worth $22.9 million. These vehicles enable Aemp to issue delivery orders to multiple customer agencies at pre-negotiated rates without duplicative competition.

Recent activity shows steady output with 16 awards in 2026 (through early July), 23 in 2025, 24 in 2024, 18 in 2023, and 19 in 2022. The recompete cliff is minimal: only 6 awards totaling $3.8 million in combined potential value complete within the next twenty-four months, indicating a stable contract footprint without major vehicle expiries driving near-term procurement risk. Aemp's award portfolio is almost entirely concentrated in two NAICS codes: Electric Power Distribution (109 awards) and Fossil Fuel Electric Power Generation (28 awards), with PSC coding 127 awards under Utilities–Electric, confirming the company's narrow but deep specialization in electricity commodity supply.
