ADA S. Mckinley Community Services, Inc.

ADA S. Mckinley Community Services, Inc., a Chicago-based tax-exempt not-for-profit organization, operates as a prime contractor delivering custodial, janitorial, facility maintenance, and mailroom services to federal agencies on a full-and-open competitive basis, with no set-aside designations across its award portfolio. The organization competes without SBA certifications and holds a subsidiary, ADA S Mckinley Community Services Inc., also structured as a not-for-profit entity.

ADA S. Mckinley's federal footprint centers on facilities operations and maintenance. The vendor holds three active single-award indefinite-delivery contracts: a $33.5 million Navy contract for base-wide filter maintenance and custodial services at Naval Station Great Lakes, Illinois (February 2026–February 2031); a $28.8 million GSA Region 5 contract for janitorial and related services at U.S. Courthouses in Chicago, Fort Wayne, and Milwaukee (November 2025–April 2031); and a closed or sunsetting GSA contract valued at $16.6 million for facility maintenance at the Dirksen and E. Ross Adair Courthouses (November 2021–October 2025, now expired). Representative recent awards include a $2.3 million Navy Installations Command delivery order for base-year custodial services in North Chicago, Illinois (March 2026); a $2.3 million Federal Aviation Administration definitive contract for janitorial services at the Chicago Air Route Traffic Control Center through September 2029; a $4.3 million U.S. Air Force Reserve Command contract for custodial services at Grissom Air Reserve Base, Indiana (November 2023–April 2029); and a $1.1 million Army Reserve Command purchase order for custodial services at Fort Sheridan, Illinois (January 2025–December 2029). The vendor also holds a $337 thousand Department of State mailroom services contract for Chicago (August 2025–January 2027) and a $226 thousand janitorial services purchase order modification from an unnamed civilian agency for Denver, Colorado (July 2025–December 2030).

Customer concentration heavily favors Navy and GSA. The top five customers account for 90% of combined potential value across the portfolio: GSA Public Buildings Service Region 5 leads with 78 awards and $99.5 million combined potential value, followed by Navy Naval Facilities Engineering Command (20 awards, $84.4 million), Navy Installations Command (46 awards, $75.5 million), the Navy Department proper (28 awards, $33.5 million), and the Air Force Reserve Command (5 awards, $27 million). A secondary ranking by award count underscores the same concentration: GSA Region 5 dominates by both volume and dollars, while Navy components collectively account for the majority of Navy-side activity. The vendor serves 26 distinct federal agencies but derives roughly 90% of potential value from the top five.

ADA S. Mckinley's primary vehicle footprint consists of five indefinite-delivery contracts and blanket purchase agreements. The largest by task-order volume is Navy IDC N6895001D0011 with 49 task orders; GSA IDC GS05P06SIC3036 carries 37 task orders valued at $634 thousand combined; GSA IDC GS05P12SID0003 holds 20 task orders worth $572 thousand; GSA IDC 47PF0020D0032 carries 17 task orders valued at $255 thousand; and GSA BPA GS05P01GAC0166 carries 12 task orders worth $113 thousand. These vehicles funnel delivery orders for routine and specialized facility maintenance across the vendor's active locations.

Activity has slowed after a peak in 2023. The vendor received 12 awards in 2022, 19 in 2023, 16 in 2024, 10 in 2025, and 4 through mid-2026. This downward trajectory reflects the transition from multiple smaller delivery orders under older GSA vehicles (which expired or sunsetting in October 2025) to fewer, larger indefinite-delivery contracts awarded in late 2025 and early 2026. Only seven awards face ultimate completion within the next twenty-four months with combined potential value of $3.1 million — a modest recompete cliff — suggesting the majority of the vendor's work sits on multi-year vehicles with performance extending through 2029–2031.

ADA S. Mckinley's capability portfolio is narrowly focused. Janitorial services account for 246 of 308 awards; housekeeping and custodial janitorial work (PSC code) dominates at 188 awards. Secondary NAICS categories include residential remodelers (16 awards), facilities support services (10 awards), and office administrative services (5 awards), with floor refinishing, tile restoration, snow removal and hauling, and mailroom operations representing specialized sub-tasks within the broader custodial envelope. The vendor operates across multiple federal installations in the Great Lakes and Midwest region — Chicago, Milwaukee, Fort Wayne, North Chicago, and Brookfield, Wisconsin are recurring performance locations — and has expanded to include facilities in Denver, Colorado and Aurora, Illinois under FAA and civilian agency contracts.

Federal grant work complements the contract portfolio. ADA S. Mckinley holds two prime project grants from the Department of Education's Office of Postsecondary Education for Talent Search college preparation and placement programs at the Bronzeville and South Chicago sites, both running through August 2026. The vendor also receives sub-grant funding from the Illinois Department of Human Services for Social Service Block Grant and SOSR (Special Opportunities for Service and Relief) programs and from the City of Chicago for Head Start, positioning it as a nonprofit service provider beyond facilities operations. These grants signal dual-mission positioning: federal facility maintenance anchors revenue and operations, while education and social services grants fund community-facing programming consistent with the organization's tax-exempt status.

ADA S. Mckinley competes entirely on the open market without set-aside or small business designations across its 290 prime awards (94% of total). The organization generates roughly two-thirds of its combined potential value in obligated dollars ($240.3 million of $356 million), indicating steady execution and incremental task-order funding rather than speculative ceiling values. The narrow NAICS and PSC concentration, combined with long-standing relationships at Naval Station Great Lakes (spanning at least 2021–2031 across multiple vehicles) and GSA Region 5 courthouses (2021–2031 across multiple contracts), signals a vendor with deep incumbent positioning in Midwest federal facilities operations, limited geographic diversification beyond the region, and pricing discipline that wins renewals under open competition.
