US Fleet Forces

U.S. Fleet Forces Command, a sub-agency of the Department of the Navy, procures supplies, services, and equipment supporting the operational readiness and logistics of the Navy's Atlantic and Pacific fleets. The command executes a massive contract portfolio through its supply-chain and acquisition infrastructure while maintaining a smaller grant program focused on environmental stewardship and marine-resource research at installations and adjacent natural areas.

U.S. Fleet Forces has awarded 449,264 federal contracts totaling $45.2 billion combined potential value, with $40.44 billion obligated. Contract activity over the last five years has been consistent and high-volume: 4,450 awards in 2022, 4,465 in 2023, 4,478 in 2024, 4,297 in 2025, and 1,749 year-to-date in 2026. The most recent award closed on October 13, 2026. Across its portfolio history since 1978, the command has engaged 19,542 distinct prime contractors.

Contract competition is highly fragmented. The top five primes by award count hold 20 percent of recent awards over the last five years. S.C.A. - Shipping Consultants Associated LTD. leads by count with 2,284 awards totaling $267.6 million combined potential value, followed by Leidos, Inc. with 619 awards ($56.4 million) and Waypoint LLC with 421 awards ($116.7 million). The by-potential-value ranking covers only 1 percent of combined potential value, indicating that the long tail of vendors accounts for the vast majority of contract dollars — a signature pattern of transactional volume through Schedule task orders, BPA calls, and below-threshold purchase orders. Ninety-four percent of awards carry no set-aside designation; small-business set-asides account for 5 percent of awards, with 8(a) sole-source and competitive awards together making up 1 percent, and service-disabled veteran-owned, HUBZone, and woman-owned small-business set-asides each representing a fraction of 1 percent.

U.S. Fleet Forces has awarded 49 federal grants totaling $43 million in obligated federal dollars. Grant activity is modest and episodic: three awards in 2020, five in 2021, twelve in 2022, six in 2023, and eight in 2024. No recent grant awards are recorded after September 30, 2024. All 49 grants are structured as Cooperative Agreements. Grant recipients are concentrated, with the top five recipients holding 50 percent of both award count and federal dollars. Institute for Wildlife Studies leads by both count and dollars with five awards totaling $8.8 million in federal dollars, and Zoological Society of San Diego ranks second with two awards totaling $8.2 million. Recipients include universities, wildlife research organizations, and natural-history institutions, many based in the San Diego area where U.S. Fleet Forces maintains significant installations.
