Marathon Electrical Contractors, LLC

Marathon Electrical Contractors, LLC, headquartered in Irondale, Alabama, is a for-profit electrical contracting and construction services firm operating primarily as a prime contractor (68% of recent awards) on federal electrical infrastructure, maintenance, and facility construction projects at domestic and international locations. The vendor competes on full-and-open basis with no SBA set-asides across its recent federal footprint.

Marathon's federal customer base is heavily concentrated with the Department of State's Bureau of Overseas Building Operations, which anchors 89% of recent awards and $108.4 million of the combined potential value across all work. The Bureau drives the vendor's primary capability focus: electrical power systems, HVAC, plumbing, welding, carpentry, project management, and engineering services at international diplomatic posts. The vendor also holds a smaller presence with the Department of Veterans Affairs Veterans Health Administration Veterans Integrated Service Network 7 (four awards, $118 thousand combined potential value), General Services Administration Public Buildings Service Region 7 (four awards), Federal Emergency Management Agency Region 4, the Department of the Navy, and United States Special Operations Command. The concentration is extreme: State accounts for nearly 100% of the vendor's combined potential value, leaving limited diversification across customer agencies.

Marathon's primary federal vehicle is the Worldwide Electrical Power multiple-award indefinite-delivery contract awarded by the Bureau of Overseas Building Operations on June 1, 2024, with a $100 million ceiling running through May 31, 2027. The vendor holds six task orders under this IDIQ valued at $8.4 million combined. Recent representative work includes a $7.67 million delivery order for replacement of low-voltage underground feeders at the U.S. Embassy in Dakar, Senegal (completion September 2027), a $658,844 spare parts procurement for facilities in Skopje and Islamabad (completion December 2026), and smaller pre-site survey and stipend orders for Brazzaville, Hong Kong, and other diplomatic posts. The vendor also places work under the GSA Public Buildings Service Region 7 General Construction with Design Build Capabilities IDIQ and holds positions on the Design Build MACC for Texas, Louisiana, Mississippi, and Tennessee and the Tyndall Air Force Base Reconstruction MATOC.

Activity has been episodic rather than sustained. The source reflects six awards in 2022, one in 2023, one in 2024, three in 2025, and three in 2026 — with a notable gap between 2022 and the restart of State orders in 2025. Only two awards face ultimate completion within the next twenty-four months (combined potential value $8.3 million), limiting near-term recompete exposure. In its subcontractor role, Marathon has delivered electrical work to The Robins & Morton Group on the U.S. Courthouse construction in Greenville, Mississippi (multiple sub-awards in 2022), to Pacwest-Korte JV on Building 603 fire alarm detection system renovation (2023), and to BL Harbert International on mobilization and testing work (2022). The vendor's sub work centers on electrical installation, structured cabling, and signage support on federal construction projects, primarily GSA and courthouse renovation work.

Service Contract Inventory captures minimal Marathon activity: six records spanning FY2022–FY2025, all but one as named subcontractor, with no prime SCI-reportable invoicing in the dataset and a small FTE trajectory (1.0 FTEs in FY2022, 33.9 in FY2024, 0.2 in FY2025). SCI is a partial view and does not capture goods, firm-fixed-price construction orders, or non-federal revenue; Marathon's recent State orders are fixed-price delivery orders for electrical construction and spare parts, which fall outside SCI reporting scope. The vendor has been registered in SAM.gov since 2009 and operates as a specialized electrical contracting firm without noted ownership designations or SBA certifications in the source material.
