Vertiv Corporation

Vertiv Corporation, doing business as Geist, is a for-profit manufacturer of critical power and cooling infrastructure headquartered in Westerville, Ohio that sells uninterruptible power supply systems, power distribution units, precision cooling equipment, batteries, and related maintenance services to federal agencies as a prime contractor (95% of recent awards) across full-and-open procurements with no recurring set-aside posture.

Vertiv's federal footprint spans 162 customer agencies with pronounced concentration in defense and civilian infrastructure support. The top five funding agencies by award count account for 30 percent of recent awards, led by the Department of the Air Force (111 awards, $328 thousand combined potential value), the National Oceanic and Atmospheric Administration (56 awards, $51 thousand), and the Department of the Army (37 awards, $32 thousand). However, the top-five agencies by potential value tell a different story: the FBI Headquarters Division alone anchors $16.8 million across eight awards, the Marine Corps carries $1.2 million across 20 awards, and the FAA Headquarters accounts for $1.1 million across nine awards. The FBI dollar concentration reflects large definitive contracts for UPS batteries, capacitors, and fans replacement ($5.2 million through September 2027) and general Vertiv infrastructure solutions ($3.6 million through December 2028), while most other customer work splits across smaller purchase orders for single-unit replacements, preventive maintenance inspections, and emergency repairs.

Vertiv's work sits almost entirely on GSA Federal Supply Schedules and direct agency purchase orders. The top contracting vehicles are Federal Supply Schedule GS07F5270A (28 task orders), GS00F93471 (23 task orders), GS00C03180 (6 task orders), and GS00K86AGS5211 (6 task orders), plus a Basic Ordering Agreement F0460688D0101 (50 task orders). Representative prime work includes a $696 thousand FAA purchase order to replace 960 UPS batteries at the Enterprise Service Center in Oklahoma City (July 2026), a $572 thousand Pacific Air Forces order for four computer room air conditioning units with performance in Columbus, Ohio (June 2026), a $327 thousand Naval Sea Systems Command order for Liebert chilled water cooling systems and installation at Naval Surface Warfare Center Dahlgren Division in Virginia (April 2026), and a $325 thousand FBI order for UPS batteries, capacitors, and fans replacement on Vertiv equipment (September 2025).

Activity has remained relatively flat — 23 awards in 2022 through 31 in 2025 — with 13 awards (combined potential value $6.4 million) reaching completion inside the next twenty-four months and facing recompete exposure. Recent award trajectory shows modest growth from 2023 (19 awards) to 2024 (33 awards) followed by a decline to 23 awards in 2026 year-to-date, suggesting neither strong momentum nor material contraction.

Vertiv operates predominantly as a prime contractor and builds its own delivery teams rather than relying on subcontractors; across SCI-reportable service contracts, subcontractors performed zero percent of total hours on Vertiv prime contracts. In its subcontractor role, Vertiv delivers UPS and cooling equipment to major primes including Leidos (Antarctic program science and maintenance support), General Dynamics One Source (consolidated towers and surveillance equipment), M.c. Dean (UPS replacement and upgrade support at the Pentagon), Lockheed Martin (static UPS for AVSC supply support and UPS systems for USAF and USMC deployments), Amentum Technology (NASA Langley center maintenance and operations), and CAE USA (F-16 simulator training battery services). Sub work is fragmentary and secondary to Vertiv's prime posture.

The vendor's capability portfolio centers on replacement and repair of original-equipment Vertiv and Liebert-branded systems — the company holds original manufacturer and sole-source status on many service contracts, enabling non-competitive awards under FAR 13.106-1(b). Top NAICS categories reflect this product focus: Air-Conditioning and Warm Air Heating Equipment Manufacturing (73 awards), Other Electronic and Precision Equipment Repair and Maintenance (43 awards), and Commercial and Industrial Machinery Repair and Maintenance (39 awards). Top PSC categories mirror the concentration: Air Conditioning Equipment (138 awards), Electrical Control Equipment (72 awards), and Maintenance/Repair of Electric Wire and Power Distribution Equipment (47 awards). Work spans federal data centers, agency telecommunications facilities, military bases, and civilian infrastructure, with performance locations distributed across CONUS, overseas bases, and subordinate field offices.

Vertiv maintains a named subsidiary, Electrical Reliability Services, Inc., a for-profit organization. The SCI dataset shows minimal federal service-contract invoicing above the $150,000 reporting threshold — zero invoiced revenue across FY2022–FY2025 on prime SCI records, with 3.8 FTEs reported in FY2024 and 5.2 FTEs in FY2025 across a small number of named subcontract engagements. This sparse SCI profile reflects Vertiv's business model: the vast majority of federal revenue flows through purchase orders for goods (UPS systems, batteries, cooling units) and short-term maintenance work below or at the SCI threshold, neither of which SCI captures as invoiced labor.
