Regional Electrical Contractors

What Regional Electrical Contractors does

Regional Electrical Contractors, Inc. (RECI), operating under that name since 1993 after succeeding CRT Electric, Inc., is a privately held commercial electrical contracting firm headquartered in Brandywine, Maryland. The company delivers electrical contracting, cabling, fire alarm, and security system services across the Mid-Atlantic US, primarily Maryland, Virginia, and Washington, D.C. Its service portfolio covers new construction, tenant build-outs and renovations, fire alarm installation and troubleshooting, time-and-material service work, term contracts, computer and telephone cabling, and security system installations, with integrations such as Lutron Smart Lighting Systems in hospitality projects.

The firm is a signatory contractor with IBEW Local 26 (Washington, D.C.), a member of the National Electrical Contractors Association (NECA), an SBA-designated small business, and holds aggregate bonding capacity exceeding $3 million. Its workforce is unionized and the company cites over 100 years of combined management and craft experience. Customer segments span government (NAVAIR, NIST), hospitality (Westin Washington D.C., OMNI Charlottesville, Grand Hyatt, Darcy Hotel), energy (Calvert Cliffs Nuclear Power Plant, with a relationship continuous since 1993), education (Montgomery County Community College, Elizabeth Seton High School), and retail (AT Home Fredericksburg).

RECI generates revenue through project-based commercial electrical work priced by quote, supplemented by time-and-material service work and term contracts for ongoing maintenance. Go-to-market is direct field sales targeting enterprise and institutional buyers in the Mid-Atlantic; the firm does not disclose revenue, has no identified external investors, and has not pursued acquisitions, new geographies, or external funding in the available record. The business model is therefore a stable, relationship-driven regional services franchise rather than a growth or platform investment.
