Nova Power Solutions, Inc.

Nova Power Solutions, Inc., a Sterling, Virginia-based manufacturer of ruggedized uninterruptible power supplies and battery storage products, operates as a small-business prime contractor (99% of recent awards) competing under Total Small Business set-asides across Defense Logistics Agency and Navy customers. The company is a subsidiary of Clary Corp, a veteran-owned manufacturer headquartered in Monrovia, California, and competes predominantly under small-business set-aside designations.

Nova Power Solutions' federal footprint centers on battery assemblies, battery sets, modulator-power supplies, power conditioning equipment, and ruggedized UPS units for shipboard and field applications. Recent representative prime work includes a $1.1 million Army contract awarded April 3, 2026, for design, test, and delivery of a replacement shipboard power pack (an uninterruptible power supply providing conditioned power and battery backup to the Enhanced Maritime Biological Detection System); a $667,890 Naval Sea Systems Command purchase order awarded August 11, 2026, for NOVA UPS Model UPS1-2K-1G-SRNDTI-2E ruggedized units for shipboard applications procured as a brand-name sole-source item; and a $211,416 Naval Air Warfare Center purchase order awarded June 1, 2026, for ruggedized UPS and Jonathan slides. The vendor also holds a single-award Indefinite Delivery Contract with DLA Land and Maritime valued at $1.956 million through August 22, 2029, designated as a Total Small Business set-aside, from which it has fulfilled hundreds of delivery orders for battery sets, battery assemblies, and power supplies ranging from $678 to approximately $43,000 per task order.

Customer concentration is extreme: DLA Land and Maritime dominates the portfolio with 4,098 awards (81% of award count) and $26.4 million combined potential value (39% of dollars), while the top five customers account for 95% of award volume. The second-largest customer by dollar value is GSA Federal Acquisition Service with just 2 awards worth $18.1 million combined potential value, indicating a concentration outlier (likely one or two very large orders). Department of the Navy customers—Information Warfare Systems Command (359 awards, $7.9 million), Naval Supply Systems Command (166 awards, $5 million), and Naval Sea Systems Command (82 awards, $2 million)—round out the active set. The revenue rankings track closely; DLA Land and Maritime anchors both volume and dollars, making it the sole material customer.

Nova Power Solutions places the vast majority of work under five aging DLA Land and Maritime Indefinite Delivery Contracts, not a single dominant vehicle. IDC SPE7LX20D5043 carries 622 task orders worth $823,000 combined potential value; SPE7LX19D5051 carries 577 task orders worth $544,000; SPE7LX15D0063 carries 542 task orders worth $723,000; SPE7LX15D0015 carries 350 task orders worth $474,000; and SPE7LX24D5043 carries 218 task orders worth $445,000. These vehicles are pools for small orders—battery sets and assemblies priced at $678 to $2,800 each—rather than large-dollar GWAC or government-wide vehicles.

Activity has declined sharply year over year, from 371 awards in 2022 to 76 awards through 2026 (a 79% drop across four years). This trajectory suggests either market saturation within the DLA small-order ecosystem, competitive pressure from other small-business battery suppliers, or contraction in defense supply-chain battery demand. The recompete cliff is minimal: only 3 awards (combined potential value $2 million) face ultimate completion inside the next twenty-four months, indicating stable but low-velocity incumbent position on the existing DLA vehicles.

In its subcontractor role (1% of awards), Nova Power Solutions delivers battery pack engineering, UPS labor, and power supply components to Scientific Research Corporation on T-AO 211-214 vessels and CVN 75 RCS work; to Science Applications International Corporation on Global Command and Control System–Maritime Japan hardware production; and to Chugach Technical Solutions on U.S. Coast Guard engineering and technical services. These relationships appear to be overflow or specialized-application work rather than primary revenue drivers.

Nova Power Solutions' capability portfolio centers on battery and power-supply manufacturing across NAICS 335311 (Power, Distribution, and Specialty Transformer Manufacturing), NAICS 332999 (All Other Miscellaneous Electrical Equipment and Component Manufacturing), and storage-battery manufacturing. The company's contract concentration on DLA Land and Maritime reflects its role as a routine supplier of standard battery sets and assemblies to military logistics operations, with technical differentiation anchored to ruggedized design and compatibility with existing naval and shipboard systems. The vendor has been registered in the System for Award Management since January 2002 and maintains established supply-chain relationships with major defense primes including Lockheed Martin and BAE Systems as a power-conditioning equipment and UPS component supplier.
