The Trim Group LLC

The Trim Group LLC, doing business as Tri-M Electrical Construction, is a Pennsylvania-based electrical construction and security systems contractor that operates primarily as a prime contractor (92% of recent awards) on full-and-open competitive federal contracts without set-aside designations. The company, a for-profit limited liability partnership headquartered in Kennett Square, Pennsylvania, has been registered in SAM.gov since 2005 and specializes in electrical construction, building automation systems, security infrastructure maintenance, and telecommunications installation for federal agencies.

Tri-M's capability portfolio centers on security systems maintenance, building automation system upgrades, and electrical infrastructure work grounded in concrete recent awards. The vendor's single largest customer relationship is a $558,588 single-award indefinite-delivery contract with the Department of Veterans Affairs Veterans Integrated Service Network 4 (VISN 4), awarded in February 2024 with ultimate completion in February 2029, to provide Lenel OnGuard security software maintenance and support at the VA Medical Center in Wilmington, Delaware, covering approximately 427 cameras and 560 card readers with a two-hour response-time service level. Under this IDIQ, four delivery orders have been issued totaling $786,428 to date, including a $558,588 base order (February 2024), a $114,420 order (March 2025), a $12,636 order (January 2025), and a $98,784 order (March 2026). Representative prime work also includes a $1.13 million definitive firm fixed-price contract awarded September 2025 for a Building Automation System upgrade from Continuum to EcoStruxure at a federal facility in Egg Harbor Township, New Jersey, with completion in October 2026, and a $35,300 Air Force contract awarded September 2023 for installation and upgrade of the public address system at Dover Air Force Base.

Customer concentration is extremely high: the Department of Veterans Affairs Veterans Integrated Service Network 4 accounts for 25 of 35 prime awards (71% of the prime footprint) and $1.6 million in combined potential value across the entire portfolio of $3.3 million. The Department of Transportation Federal Aviation Administration (both Headquarters and Technical Center) represents the second-largest customer with 5 awards and $1.64 million in combined potential value. The top two customers account for 87% of awards by count and 98% of combined potential value across nine distinct federal agencies served. Tri-M competes full-and-open without set-aside protections; all named awards carry no set-aside designation.

The vendor holds position on an Eglin Wide Agile Acquisition Contract and operates primarily under single-award and definitive contracts rather than broad government-wide vehicles. Activity has grown modestly from a baseline of one award in 2021 to six awards in 2025, though the absolute award count remains low. Two awards with combined potential value of $1.2 million face ultimate completion within the next twenty-four months and are therefore exposed to recompete. The top NAICS categories by award frequency are Security Systems Services (17 awards) and Electrical Contractors and Other Wiring Installation Contractors (8 awards), with PSC concentration in maintenance and repair of alarm and security detection systems (10 awards) and IT and telecom annual software maintenance (3 awards).

SCI-reported invoiced revenue for federal service contracts above the $150,000 threshold shows minimal activity: $83 thousand invoiced in FY2024 across 0.1 FTEs on a single prime contract. This reflects the vendor's emphasis on full-and-open equipment procurement and security system maintenance delivery orders rather than large service-contract vehicles. Tri-M operates as a subcontractor to Northrop Grumman (manufacturing capacity enhancement, May 2025) and Lockheed Martin (land-based test site support and security preventive maintenance, March 2024 and March 2025), though sub work represents only 8% of recent awards. The vendor holds a subsidiary, Energ Test LLC, a for-profit limited liability company, but the corporate relationship and operational role are not specified in available sources. Obligated dollars across all awards total $2.5 million (75% of combined potential value), indicating strong contract execution against a small but consistent federal footprint anchored by VA security infrastructure work.
