About this vehicle

The Department of the Army Headquarters Office of the Secretary awarded this Master IDIQ for Applicant Management Services on July 1, 2024, with ordering authority extending through June 30, 2029. The vehicle is unrestricted; all 126 task orders awarded to date carry no set-aside designation.

Ordering activity has accelerated markedly. The vehicle generated 20 task orders in 2024, 60 in 2025, and 46 through May 2026. The most recent award was issued May 1, 2026. Combined potential value across all task orders is $328.7 million, with only $6.2 million (2% of that total) currently obligated, indicating substantial runway for future funding.

The work spans meals, lodging, transportation, and administrative oversight services for military applicants processing through Military Entrance Processing Stations (MEPS) nationwide. Task orders identify specific MEPS locations by geography—Baltimore, Tampa, San Juan (Puerto Rico), Honolulu, Los Angeles, Sacramento, and over fifty other stations across CONUS and OCONUS. Recent orders cluster on geographically dispersed stations, with task-order ceilings typically ranging from roughly $1 million to $4 million per location, though several exceed $5 million (Sacramento at $2.8 million, San Juan at $9.6 million, Honolulu at $6.2 million).

Competition is concentrated but not monopolistic. Command Management Services, Inc. holds 62 of 126 orders ($184.1 million potential value, 56% of the combined total), while Empire Hospitality LLC holds 39 orders ($92.1 million, 28%), and Liberty Lodging Co LLC holds 18 orders ($44.1 million, 13%). Two smaller primes—Bellator Group Inc. and Amentum Services, Inc.—account for the remainder. The top three primes capture approximately 97% of awarded work by potential value.

Customer concentration is extreme: the contracting office (Department of the Army Headquarters Office of the Secretary) placed 125 of 126 orders totaling $328.7 million; one order funded the Installation Management Command Northeast Region for $15 thousand. Pricing across all orders is firm fixed price. Task-order durations typically range from 18 to 48 months, with completion dates extending into 2030 and 2031.
