Academy Bus LLC

Academy Bus LLC, doing business as Academy Bus, is a for-profit limited liability company based in Hoboken, New Jersey that provides charter bus and motor passenger transportation services to federal agencies as a prime contractor, with 98% of recent awards held in prime positions. The vendor operates in full-and-open competition with no set-aside designations across its federal footprint.

Academy Bus's capability portfolio centers on charter bus services and motor passenger transportation for federal travel, training, and administrative purposes. Representative work includes a $15,870 ratification of an unauthorized commitment with the Social Security Administration for charter bus transportation services in September 2024 (awarded January 2025), a $3,600 firm-fixed-price purchase order from the U.S. Coast Guard for 55-passenger charter bus services supporting the Coast Guard Leadership Development Center's Senior Enlisted Leadership Course at the Training Center in Cape May, New Jersey (March–April 2022), and an Intercity Project federal grant sub-award from an unnamed grantor in July 2025.

Customer concentration is heavily skewed toward the Department of Homeland Security U.S. Coast Guard, which accounts for 34 awards (52% of the total) with $462 thousand in combined potential value. The top five customer agencies by award count cover 72% of recent awards, but the potential-value ranking diverges sharply: the Department of the Army Materiel Command Sustainment Command holds a single $8 million award that represents 86% of the vendor's total combined potential value of $9.3 million. The Department of Justice Federal Bureau of Investigation (5 awards, $295 thousand) and the Department of the Navy (3 awards, $136 thousand) round out the active customer set. Academy Bus has served 21 distinct federal agencies since 2006, with awards concentrated in NAICS 488410 (Bus and Other Motor Vehicle Transit Systems) and PSC categories for passenger motor charter and general motor passenger transportation.

Activity has been episodic and modest in scale. Awards per year declined from eight annually in 2017–2018 to three in 2019, then dropped to one in 2022 and two in 2025. Combined potential value across all 65 awards stands at $9.3 million, with $3.9 million (42%) obligated to date. The vendor holds minimal subcontract exposure (1 of 65 awards, 2%).
