About the company
Vortex Systems LLC, based in Albuquerque, New Mexico, manufactures unattended ground sensor equipment, infrared sensor systems, and related peripherals for U.S. Customs and Border Protection and other federal agencies, operating exclusively as a prime contractor on full-and-open federal contracts with no set-aside designations. The company is a for-profit Subchapter S corporation with a footprint of 32 prime awards totaling $57.7 million in combined potential value across twelve distinct customer agencies.
The vendor's portfolio is heavily concentrated in sensor manufacturing and border security infrastructure. Top NAICS categories are Other Communications Equipment Manufacturing (19 awards) and Search, Detection, Navigation, Guidance, Aeronautical, and Nautical System and Instrument Manufacturing (10 awards), with supporting PSC codes in Communications Security Equipment and Components and Miscellaneous Alarm, Signal, and Security Detection Systems. Representative work includes a $2.3 million BPA call from CBP for vortex sensors (awarded July 29, 2026, completing December 30, 2026), a $1.7 million CBP order for unattended ground sensor equipment (September 15, 2025), and a $2.9 million CBP delivery order for UGS sensors and peripheral equipment (August 15, 2023). Secondary work includes ballistics equipment (ballistic rubber media valued at $86 thousand for the Federal Law Enforcement Training Center, ballistics blocks at $12 thousand for Army Medical Command) and portable kennels for CBP border operations.
Customer concentration is extreme: U.S. Customs and Border Protection accounts for 14 awards and $54.1 million of the $57.7 million combined potential value — 94% of dollars across the footprint. The remaining five named agencies (GSA Federal Acquisition Service, the Department of State's Bureau of International Narcotics Law Enforcement, DHS Chief Procurement Officer, Federal Law Enforcement Training Center, and Warner Robins Air Logistics Complex) collectively account for $3.6 million. The concentration by dollar value nearly mirrors concentration by count, indicating that CBP's orders are neither systematically larger nor smaller than non-CBP work.
Vortex's primary vehicle is the General Services Administration's Multiple Award Schedule, which anchors 23 task orders carrying $41.6 million in combined potential value. The vendor holds a single-award BPA directly with CBP (valued at $18.9 million, running through July 30, 2026) that serves as the parent for multiple delivery orders; recent task orders under this BPA total over $10 million across several 2024 and 2025 awards. Recompete exposure in the next twenty-four months is minimal — only one award (combined potential value $2.3 million) reaches ultimate completion within that window. Activity has been episodic rather than trending: three awards in 2022, two in 2023, five in 2024, four in 2025, and one thus far in 2026. The vendor has not pursued subcontractor work; the entire footprint consists of direct prime awards.
