What WAC UPFITTERS LLC does

WAC Upfitters LLC is a privately held, locally owned emergency vehicle upfitter headquartered at 2322 Candelaria NE in Albuquerque, New Mexico, operating with a 5-person team led by Principal Bobby Jackson (50+ years of local business experience), Manager Josh Hoyle, and General Manager Ginger Jackson. The company specializes in custom emergency vehicle builds, electrical rewiring, fleet service and repair contracts, retrofits, and system upgrades for police, fire, specialty law enforcement, government, and select private-sector customers across the state of New Mexico. Its work spans multiple vehicle types (cars, light/heavy-duty trucks, SUVs, transports, motorcycles) from major manufacturers (Chevrolet, Ford, Dodge, Toyota, Jeep), with equipment integrated from a broad vendor network that includes Federal Signal, Soundoff Signal, Havis, Setina, Westin, Whelen, Gamber-Johnson, Jotto Desk, Vision SLR, B&B, and HG2.

The company's revenue model is project-based and quote-driven, generated through one-time upfitting service contracts, ongoing fleet maintenance agreements (with same-day service commitments to minimize vehicle downtime), and — via its sister company Accessories Unlimited — sales of aftermarket automotive accessories such as nerf bars, tool boxes, LED lights, alarm systems, back-up cameras, and interior leather products. Pricing is not publicly disclosed and varies by vehicle type, equipment package, and customization requirements. Go-to-market is direct sales-led, with customer acquisition and account management handled through phone and email ([email protected], [email protected], 505-554-1966) rather than through intermediaries or marketplace channels.

WAC Upfitters serves a deeply embedded New Mexico customer base spanning more than 25 named public-sector accounts (including Albuquerque Police Department, New Mexico State Police, Carlsbad Police Department, multiple county sheriffs, fire departments across the state, tribal nations such as Jemez and Laguna Pueblos, Kirtland Air Force Base, and several municipal/county governments) as well as private enterprises such as G4S Secure Solutions, New Mexico Gas Company, and 4 Rivers Equipment. The company maintains no app, no public API, no AI/ML capabilities, no patents, and no external investment, operating entirely as a founder-owned, relationship-driven trade-services business anchored in its state-level market.
