About the company
Powervar Inc., doing business as Ametek Powervar, a small disadvantaged business subsidiary of Ametek Inc., manufactures and supplies uninterruptible power supply (UPS) systems and related preventive maintenance and battery replacement services to federal agencies as a prime contractor on purchase orders and definitive contracts, with no subcontract or sub-award activity.
Powervar is a for-profit manufacturer headquartered in Waukegan, Illinois and wholly owned by Ametek Inc., a global electronics and electromechanical equipment manufacturer based in Berwyn, Pennsylvania. Powervar holds small disadvantaged business (SDB) certification and competes in full-and-open procurement without set-aside designation on most awards, though some awards carry total small business set-aside markings. The vendor's primary NAICS categories are Other Electronic Component Manufacturing (35 awards) and Power, Distribution, and Specialty Transformer Manufacturing (8 awards), with top PSC codes covering laboratory equipment and supplies, medical and surgical instruments, and electrical power and distribution equipment.
Powervar's customer base is concentrated in civilian research and health agencies. The top five customer agencies account for 34% of recent awards and 49% of combined potential value. The Department of Justice Drug Enforcement Administration leads with 9 awards worth $129 thousand combined potential value, followed by the Department of Health and Human Services Food and Drug Administration (7 awards, $84 thousand), the Department of Veterans Affairs Veterans Integrated Service Network 7 (4 awards, $73 thousand), the Department of Agriculture Agricultural Research Service Northeast Area (3 awards, $43 thousand), and the National Institute on Drug Abuse (3 awards, $28 thousand). Recent representative work includes a $26,478 sole-source purchase order from the DEA for UPS preventive maintenance and battery replacement services on laboratory instruments (May 2026), a $12,820 firm fixed-price purchase order from the Office of Research and Development for UPS equipment (May 2025), a $12,126.40 definitive contract from the VA Network Contracting Office 7 for preventative maintenance services on UPS systems at the Charlie Norwood VA Medical Center in Augusta, Georgia through October 2027, and a $12,096.38 total small business set-aside purchase order from the Indian Health Service for a UPS backup system supporting a Roche Cobas chemistry analyzer (August 2024).
Activity is sparse and flat. The vendor recorded 77 total awards across twenty-seven agencies over the past two decades, with one award in 2023, two in 2024, one in 2025, and one in 2026. Combined potential value across all awards stands at $723 thousand, with $679 thousand obligated. Two awards with combined potential value of $39 thousand reach ultimate completion within the next twenty-four months and face recompete exposure. The vendor operates exclusively as a prime contractor with no recorded sub-award activity, positioning it as a specialized OEM maintenance and parts supplier rather than a systems integrator or service prime.
