BASS Electric

What BASS Electric does

BASS Electric (legal entity Bay Area Systems & Solutions, Inc.) is a minority- and veteran-owned general engineering and commercial electrical contractor founded in 1996 and headquartered in South San Francisco. The firm delivers commercial and industrial electrical contracting, multi-site service and maintenance contracts, Arc Flash studies, and adjacent energy services including commercial solar installation (as a SunPower distributor), EV charging infrastructure, and generator deployment (as a Generac authorized dealer). Its service base spans 25+ U.S. states plus Canada, with international reach into the UK, France, Netherlands, and Ireland tied to a multi-site data center engagement.

The company's technology layer centers on partner-integrated reliability and monitoring programs: the Exertherm™ continuous thermal monitoring solution (delivered through QHI Group) for switchgear and mission-critical electrical infrastructure, the TEGG preventative-maintenance program for predictive servicing, and a Solar Operations & Maintenance subscription program. BASS's technician base comprises IBEW Local 617-trained union electricians holding OSHA 30 and medium-voltage splicer certifications, supporting both regulated utility-scale work and union-mandated project scopes.

BASS generates revenue through a mix of project-based electrical contracting (large infrastructure installations for airports, transit agencies, water utilities, and data centers) and recurring service contracts (maintenance, thermal monitoring, solar O&M). Its customer base is diversified across government, aviation (SFO airline tenants), healthcare and education (UCSF, Kaiser Permanente), hyperscale data center operators (Digital Realty Trust, Vantage), and commercial construction primes. The firm derives a regulatory and procurement advantage from SDVOSB, DVBE, and MBE certifications, and from qualified-vendor designations at Kaiser Permanente and United Airlines. Leadership is held by Jeffrey Yee, Jr. (President & CEO) and Jeffrey J. Yee (VP & CFO).
