Powers Of Arkansas Inc.

Powers Of Arkansas Inc., based in North Little Rock, Arkansas, delivers HVAC system installation, maintenance, and repair services alongside building automation system (BAS) integration and controls engineering to federal civilian agencies as a prime contractor (98% of recent awards) competing full-and-open without set-aside designations. The company operates across 31 federal customer agencies and has held federal contracts since at least 1990, with recent activity spanning GSA regional offices, the Department of Agriculture, the Department of Health and Human Services Food and Drug Administration, the Department of the Air Force Air National Guard, and the Department of Veterans Affairs.

Powers Of Arkansas anchors its customer base in GSA's facilities portfolio. The General Services Administration Public Buildings Service Region 7 accounts for 88 awards (26% of the company's recent prime portfolio) with $2.9 million combined potential value, driven largely by task orders under the GSA Multiple Award Schedule. A separate tranche of nine GSA Public Buildings Service awards (not region-specific) carries $4.7 million combined potential value, including a $41.9 million Blanket Purchase Agreement awarded June 16, 2025, by GSA Region 1 for smart sensor installation and support services across over 180 million square feet of GSA-owned and managed federal building space through June 2027. This agreement represents the company's single largest contract vehicle. Beyond GSA, the company holds recurring work with the Department of Health and Human Services Food and Drug Administration (21 awards, $2.7 million), the Department of the Army (12 awards, $1.5 million through Materiel Command Joint Munitions Command), and the Department of Veterans Affairs (16 awards, $1.1 million). The top five customer agencies by either volume or dollar magnitude account for 51% of recent prime awards.

Capability work centers on building systems modernization and emergency repair. Recent representative task orders include a $2.11 million GSA Multiple Award Schedule delivery order (September 2026) for Niagara overlay replacement of an existing Metasys building automation system in Denver, Colorado; a $2.57 million GSA order (August 2026) for 2,000 JACE unit upgrades and 204 software maintenance agreements across the GSA building portfolio; a $704,925 definitive contract with GSA Region 7 (May 2023) for building automation system upgrades in Fort Smith, Arkansas; a $325,000 GSA contract (April 2024) for BAS replacement at the Richard Sheppard Arnold Annex Federal Building in Little Rock; and a $131,471 contract (September 2023) for water-coil replacement and air-handling unit restoration at the Texarkana Post Office and Courthouse. The company also executes emergency repairs and seasonal maintenance — including a $126,983 seasonal HVAC maintenance order from the Department of the Interior covering the Cass Job Corps Campus through 2031 and a $223,600 contract from the U.S. Marshals Service for rooftop-mounted cellblock HVAC replacement in Fort Smith.

Powers Of Arkansas holds task-order positions on the GSA Multiple Award Schedule (100 task orders, $9.1 million combined potential value) and smaller indefinite delivery contracts, with no activity on government-wide GWACs outside the MAS vehicle. Activity has remained modest and flat — five awards in 2026, eight in 2024, seven in 2022 — with only three awards (combined potential value $4.9 million) reaching ultimate completion inside the next twenty-four months, presenting limited recompete exposure relative to the $41.9 million BPA's extended performance window. In its subcontractor role, the company performs BAS support and controls integration on facilities maintenance primes including Patton Contractors Inc. (boiler plant replacement at the Fritz Lanham Federal Building in Fort Worth, July 2026), CMI Management LLC (maintenance services option-year exercises in Las Cruces and Roswell, New Mexico), and South Dade Air Conditioning & Refrigeration Inc. (operations and maintenance call orders in Little Rock, Washington D.C., and New Orleans). The sub footprint remains minimal — six sub awards across the source period — and does not materially shape the company's federal profile.

GSA Schedule labor rates range from $175.36 to $191.19 per hour across four active categories spanning Mechanical Service, Controls System Tech, Controls System Specialist, and Controls Service roles, all at high school or associate-degree education levels with no security-clearance requirements. Service Contract Inventory captures minimal activity: $320,000 in SCI-reported invoiced revenue across FY2023–FY2025 (prime records), with 0.1 FTEs recorded in FY2023 and FY2025. The SCI dataset represents a narrow slice of the company's federal service revenue — it covers only contracts above the $150,000 reporting threshold and excludes goods, products, and micro-purchases that dominate Powers Of Arkansas' federal footprint — and does not reflect the company's full enterprise federal business.
