About the company
Powell Electronics Inc., a for-profit manufacturer of electrical connectors, aviation wiring, and aircraft-component assemblies headquartered in Cary, North Carolina, operates as a prime contractor on small-business and full-and-open federal purchases, with a small-business set-aside posture on Coast Guard contracts and full-and-open competition across Navy and Defense Logistics Agency work. The vendor is a child entity of Powell Electronics, Inc. (parent company located in Swedesboro, New Jersey) and competes predominantly as a direct supplier of electrical parts and connectors to military aviation customers rather than as a system integrator or through larger contract vehicles.
Powell's customer concentration is heavily weighted to military aviation and logistics buyers. The Department of Homeland Security's U.S. Coast Guard accounts for 141 awards and $654 thousand in combined potential value — roughly 30% of award volume and dollar share. The Navy's Naval Air Systems Command and Naval Supply Systems Command together represent 222 awards and $504 thousand, while the Defense Logistics Agency's Aviation division holds 28 awards and $523 thousand in potential value. These five customers cover 87% of recent award volume and 82% of combined potential value. Coast Guard dominates both rankings, reflecting Powell's sustained position as a direct supplier of MH-60T, MH-65, and HC-144 aircraft components (connectors, insulated sleeves, terminal junctions, wiring). Representative prime work includes a $27,076 firm-fixed-price purchase order from the Coast Guard (March 2025) for MH-60T terminal junctions, a $17,116 order (January 2026) for MH-65 connectors on total small-business set-aside, a $17,764 award (December 2023) for HC-144 circular connectors on full-and-open competition, and a $15,764 small-business purchase order (December 2022) for MH-60T insulated sleeves. Powell sits on one indefinite-delivery contract (SPE4A614D5120) with 13 task orders and $82 thousand in combined potential value, a modest vehicle presence reflecting its role as a parts supplier rather than a prime on larger programs.
Recent activity shows modest volume — four awards in 2025 and one award year-to-date in 2026 — after a three-year decline from 2022. Combined potential value is $2.4 million across 478 total awards, with 94% obligated, indicating a highly incremental procurement pattern typical of spare-parts suppliers. Powell's capability footprint centers on electrical connectors (260 awards across PSC 5305 coding) and other aircraft parts and auxiliary equipment (231 awards), with secondary exposure to electrical insulators, wiring, and miscellaneous aircraft accessories. A single subcontract award (December 2025) exists under General Dynamics Information Technology for avionics test-set cable assemblies. Powell operates as the child of a larger parent manufacturer, suggesting shared manufacturing capacity and sourcing relationships across both entities.
