AB Staffing Solutions LLC

AB Staffing Solutions LLC, a for-profit limited liability company headquartered in Gilbert, Arizona, provides temporary healthcare and educational staffing services to federal agencies on a prime-contractor basis, competing on an unrestricted (full-and-open) foundation without reliance on small business set-asides. The vendor operates as a self-performing prime across a portfolio of 3,614 federal awards spanning nearly two decades, with no subcontractor engagement and no sub-award activity in the source data.

The Indian Health Service dominates AB Staffing's customer base, accounting for 2,869 awards (79% of award count) valued at $878.6 million combined potential value. The Department of Veterans Affairs—particularly Veterans Integrated Service Network 20 and VISN 12—represents the second-tier customer, with 230 awards across multiple VHA networks totaling $1.32 billion in combined potential value. The National Institutes of Health Clinical Center, Department of the Interior Bureau of Indian Education, and Federal Bureau of Prisons round out material customer relationships. The top five agencies account for 87% of total potential value, indicating concentrated customer exposure.

AB Staffing's capability footprint centers on temporary clinical staffing across multiple medical disciplines: emergency medicine and hospitalist physicians, registered nurses, pharmacists, medical technologists and laboratory technicians, therapists (behavioral health and occupational), radiologic technologists, optometrists, and dentists. Educational staffing includes special education teachers, school counselors, and compensatory education advisors, primarily for Bureau of Indian Education schools serving Native American communities. Representative delivery orders illustrate scale and scope: a $1.59 million pharmacist IDIQ task order with IHS Cheyenne River Health Center (Eagle Butte, South Dakota, July 2024); a $5.86 million non-personal service physician contract for emergency room and inpatient coverage at an IHS facility (through June 2025); a $4.99 million radiological services delivery order at Hopi Health Care Center in Arizona (through May 2028); and a $6.54 million nursing services contract at Zuni Service Unit in New Mexico (through March 2028).

The vendor holds two primary vehicle positions. The Professional and Allied Healthcare Staffing Services Federal Supply Schedule (FSS-621-I), a $418 million multiple-award indefinite-delivery vehicle with the Department of Veterans Affairs (effective April 2024–March 2029), anchors 1,625 task orders valued at $845.3 million—the largest parent-vehicle revenue source in the portfolio. This vehicle enables rapid deployment of clinical personnel across 91 labor categories and serves as the contracting mechanism for delivery orders from IHS, VA, NIH, and the Department of Justice. A secondary vehicle, Federal Supply Schedule V797P4636A, supports 1,065 task orders worth $237 million. Additionally, AB Staffing holds single-award indefinite-delivery contracts with IHS for specialized services: a $7.9 million pharmacist IDIQ (Cheyenne River Health Center, through July 2027), and legacy IDIQs for medical laboratory services ($405.6 thousand, expired November 2023) and physician services ($1 million, expired March 2024). The vendor established a new $50 million Blanket Purchase Agreement with NIH Clinical Center on June 1, 2026, for supplemental healthcare providers under FSS-621-I.

Activity has declined sharply: 151 awards in 2022, 109 in 2023, 53 in 2024, 25 in 2025, and 11 through July 2026. This contraction signals either market saturation at primary customers or displacement by competitors. Twenty-one awards worth $30.6 million combined potential value face ultimate completion within the next twenty-four months, creating recompete exposure and revenue cliff risk for calendar 2026–2027.

Service Contract Inventory reporting shows $109.2 million in invoiced revenue across FY2022–FY2024, with 162 FTEs in FY2022, 920 FTEs in FY2023, and 142 FTEs in FY2024—volatile workforce scale reflecting task-order fluctuation. Government-paid hourly rates (derived from invoiced dollars divided by contractor hours) median around $129.45/hr, with the spectrum running from $50/hr at the 10th percentile to $230/hr at the 90th percentile, reflecting mix of clinical disciplines and experience levels. SCI reports zero subcontractor hours; AB Staffing self-performs 100% of reported delivery.

The vendor's award concentration by service category reflects clinical labor: Temporary Help Services (1,906 awards), Offices of Physicians except Mental Health Specialists (1,489 awards), and All Other Miscellaneous Ambulatory Health Care Services (110 awards) dominate NAICS classification. By PSC, Medical–Nursing (1,278 awards), Medical–Other (778 awards), and Medical–Managed Healthcare (588 awards) comprise the core. The portfolio spans CONUS, OCONUS (Alaska), and tribal health service areas nationwide, with concentration in rural and underserved Native American communities in the Mountain West and Northern Plains.
