BWX Technologies (symbol: BWXT) primarily sells to the U.S. government. The company's business model is largely Business-to-Government (B2G).

Its major customers are:

• The U.S. Government: This constitutes the vast majority of BWXT's revenue. BWXT supplies nuclear components, fuel, and services primarily for the U.S. Naval Nuclear Propulsion Program. This involves contracts with agencies such as the Department of Energy (DOE) and the Department of Defense (DOD), particularly the U.S. Navy. The U.S. Government is not a publicly traded company and therefore does not have a stock symbol.

While the U.S. Government is its overwhelming primary customer, BWXT also serves a smaller number of international governments and commercial customers for specialized nuclear components and services.
