About this agency
The Defense Commissary Agency, an independent defense agency that procures and delivers groceries, supplies, and services to support military commissary operations worldwide, has executed 161,802 federal contract awards since 1991 with a combined potential value of $206.44 billion, of which $71.76 billion has been obligated. Contract volume has declined notably over the last five years: 1,306 awards in 2022, 2,032 in 2023, 1,196 in 2024, 879 in 2025, and 428 year-to-date in 2026. The most recent award was recorded as of October 1, 2026.
The contractor base is highly fragmented. Among the top five primes by recent award count (representing 23% of awards in the last five years), Amigo Mobility International Inc. leads with 401 awards but carries only $2 million combined potential value across them; Gill Group, Inc. follows with 266 awards and $3.2 million combined potential value. By potential value, concentration remains negligible at 0% for the top five, with Envision Industries, Inc. holding the highest individual recent value at $22.9 million across 76 awards. The wide dispersion reflects DeCA's transactional model: contract awards transact heavily through Schedule task orders and below-threshold purchases where individual potential values are small and numerous. DeCA reported 6,164 distinct prime contractors across the portfolio lifetime.
Set-asides are minimal. No set-aside designations apply to 134,574 awards (83% of total), while small-business set-asides account for 20,369 awards (13%). 8(a) sole-source awards comprise 5,517 awards (3%), with all other set-aside categories (HUBZone, SDVOSB, WOSB) representing less than 1% individually.
Grant activity is negligible. DeCA has issued one federal grant award, a Cooperative Agreement worth $6.3 million obligated, recorded on September 30, 2018. No additional grant awards have been recorded since.
Recent contract opportunities reflect DeCA's operational footprint and modernization priorities. Solicitation HQC00527QE002, due November 19, 2026, seeks trash removal services at three commissaries under a Total Small Business set-aside. DeCA has issued multiple Commercial Solutions Opening notices under DFARS Subpart 212-70 authority, including HQCAAA2701 and HQCAAA2702 (both with a September 30, 2031 target completion date) for innovative commercial technologies and services across CONUS and OCONUS locations. Several recent opportunities target facility maintenance and commercial refrigeration services at overseas commissaries: HQC0102712 seeks maintenance solutions for European distribution centers (due October 29, 2026), and HQC0102713 targets UK commercial refrigeration services at RAF Lakenheath, Mildenhall, Alconbury, and Croughton (also due October 29, 2026). DeCA is also conducting market research for laundry and textile processing services (RFI 2026Linen, due October 6, 2026) and issued a presolicitation notice for worldwide gondola shelving systems delivery and installation (HQC004-SHELVING) anticipated for posting on or about November 16, 2026. Small-dollar equipment procurements remain active, including HQC00426QE031 for dual-sided grab-and-go refrigeration units at Fort Belvoir (originally due September 25, 2026).
