Unitron, LP

Unitron, LP, doing business as Unitron Power Systems, LP and Atlas Marine Systems, manufactures frequency converters, ground power units, and related electrical power generation and conversion equipment for the Department of Defense and federal agencies as a prime contractor on 560 awards (96% of its footprint) and operates as a woman-owned small business competing under both Total Small Business set-asides and full-and-open competitions.

Unitron is a for-profit partnership or limited liability partnership headquartered in Dallas, Texas. The vendor specializes in power conversion and generation equipment under primary NAICS codes 335312 (Switchgear and Switchboard Apparatus Manufacturing), 335312 (Motor and Generator Manufacturing), and 335999 (All Other Miscellaneous Electrical Equipment and Component Manufacturing), with PSC footprint dominated by electrical converters (248 awards) and miscellaneous power distribution equipment (49 awards). As a woman-owned small business, Unitron competes across both set-aside and unrestricted procurement vehicles, with Total Small Business set-asides accounting for roughly 40% of recent prime awards and full-and-open competitions driving the remainder.

Unitron's capability portfolio centers on aircraft ground support power systems. Representative recent prime work includes a $286,832 Total Small Business definitive contract from the Defense Logistics Agency Aviation (awarded November 25, 2025) for a UFC 90kVA fixed frequency converter supporting military aviation ground operations; a $238,620 sole-source purchase order from the U.S. Coast Guard (awarded February 25, 2025) for six frequency converters and programmable cables supporting HC-130J aircraft; a $725,598.99 Total Small Business definitive contract from the Air National Guard (awarded September 15, 2023) for nine power converters, cables, and reels; a $560,273.09 firm fixed-price purchase order from the Coast Guard (awarded June 29, 2023) for preparatory industrial work supporting installation of Atlas Marine frequency converters on three 87-foot Marine Protector Class patrol boats for the Lebanese Armed Forces Navy; and a $113,874 sole-source purchase order from NASA's Shared Services Center (awarded July 20, 2023) for two 90kVA AC/DC aircraft ground support power carts for the Armstrong Flight Research Center. Unitron also performs repair and diagnostics work on power generation systems, including evaluation and repair of 400Hz generators and assessment services at military installations.

Customer concentration skews heavily toward Army and Air Force ground support operations. The top five customer organizations account for 43% of recent awards by count but only 34% by combined potential value, indicating Unitron holds many smaller task orders alongside larger definitive contracts. The Department of the Army places 136 awards ($2.4 million combined potential value); the Army Materiel Command Contracting Command at Redstone Arsenal concentrates $8.8 million across 22 awards; the Air Force Air Mobility Command anchors $4.5 million across 14 awards; Air Combat Command awards 22 orders for $2.4 million; and Naval Air Systems Command places 36 awards valued at $844 thousand. Unitron has worked with 101 distinct federal customer agencies spanning DoD, Coast Guard, NASA, and National Guard components.

The Federal Supply Schedule GS07F9437G dominates Unitron's vehicle footprint, with 307 task orders generating $16 million in combined potential value. Three IDICs carry smaller order volumes: FA445209D0005 (3 task orders, $3.7 million), N6833506D0010 (5 task orders, $628 thousand), and 80JSC023DA017 (1 task order). A Special Operations Equipment – Tailored Logistics Support vehicle carries 6 task orders. This concentration on GSA schedule and Army contracting command vehicles makes Unitron a consistent supplier to ongoing military aviation and ground support operations but creates limited exposure to large agency-wide GWACs or civilian IT vehicles.

Activity has grown from 13 awards in 2022 to a peak of 23 in 2024, declining to 9 awards in 2025 and 2 in 2026 to date. Combined potential value stands at $59.7 million with $48.1 million obligated (81% realization). Only three awards face ultimate completion within the next twenty-four months ($840 thousand combined potential value), indicating minimal recompete cliff exposure in the near term.

Unitron's subcontractor footprint spans major defense primes including The Boeing Company (presidential aircraft recapitalization and Royal Saudi Air Force modernization work), Lockheed Martin (air commando training support), Bell Textron (Future Vertical Lift program), Atlantic Diving Supply (multiple frequency converter and power system procurements), Amentum Services (Army Aviation and Missile Command field maintenance), and smaller primes such as Dynetics, KBR Wyle Services, and Yulista Solutions. Unitron's sub work involves supplying frequency converters, power karts, electrical hangar carts, and related power generation equipment to support larger platform development and sustainment efforts across Army aviation, Navy aviation electronics warfare, and Presidential aircraft programs. The subcontract footprint represents 4% of total awards (22 sub-awards), with recent sub activity concentrated among Atlantic Diving Supply and Boeing across 2024 and 2025.

Unitron designs, manufactures and services a comprehensive product line of All Electric Solid-State Frequency Converters (SSFCs), sometimes referred to as Ground Power Units (GPUs), with outputs or combination outputs of 28VDC, 270VDC, and 400 Hz.
