Viable Power Conversion Technologies Inc.

Viable Power Conversion Technologies Inc., a Canadian for-profit manufacturer based in Pointe-Claire, Quebec, supplies specialized electrical and power conversion components to the Department of Defense as a prime contractor (87% of recent awards), competing in full-and-open procurements with no set-aside designation. The vendor manufactures centrifugal fan assemblies, electrical drawers, receiving trays, battery trays, and power supply units for defense and aerospace applications, with place of performance at its Ottawa, Ontario facility.

Viable Power's customer base concentrates heavily on Naval aviation and DLA supply operations. The top five customer organizations account for 90% of recent awards by count, dominated by the Department of the Navy Naval Air Systems Command Naval Air Warfare Center (21 awards, $1.7 million combined potential value) and Defense Logistics Agency Aviation (21 awards, $1.3 million combined potential value). The two dollar rankings track closely — Naval Air Warfare Center and DLA Aviation anchor both volume and potential value — with DLA Land and Maritime, the Office of Personnel Management, and DLA Troop Support Construction and Equipment filling secondary positions. Viable Power operates primarily through firm fixed-price purchase orders; the source identifies three parent indefinite delivery contracts (IDCs N0042120D0117 and SPM4A611D0343 and an Information Analysis Center Multiple-Award Contract) but carries minimal task order volume under any single vehicle. Recent representative prime awards include a $235.3 thousand purchase order from Naval Air Warfare Center in July 2023 for a power supply unit, multiple DLA purchase orders in September 2024 for centrifugal fan assemblies ($3.4 thousand and $1.7 thousand) and electrical drawers ($34.4 thousand and $17.2 thousand) awarded in November 2024, and a March 2026 DLA order for a centrifugal fan assembly ($12.9 thousand) due July 2026.

The vendor's award volume shows modest recent activity — seven awards in 2024, four in 2025, one in 2026 year to date — with a longer contracting history extending to 2004. The source indicates no awards approaching completion and recompete in the next twenty-four months. Viable Power subcontracts under major defense primes including BAE Systems Technology Solutions & Services Inc. (power supply units and related services), Electric Boat Corporation (submarine development and design support for SSN 814, SSN 815, and SSBN 826 programs), and KBR Wyle Services LLC (airborne reconnaissance platform R&D support for Naval Surface Warfare Center Crane and Naval Air Systems Command). The vendor's product portfolio concentrates in electrical hardware and supplies (24 awards across all sources) and miscellaneous electrical power and distribution equipment (8 awards), with secondary specialization in converters and blower equipment. Viable Power has established subcontracting relationships with major defense contractors, positioning it as an integrated supplier within the defense industrial base but with a narrow geographic and supplier-class footprint — all prime work routes through DLA and Naval commands, all performance occurs in Canada, and dollar values remain consistently sub-$250 thousand per order.
