ADC LTD NM

ADC LTD NM, doing business as Adcl, is a minority-owned, woman-owned, Hispanic American-owned small business based in Albuquerque, New Mexico, that operates exclusively as a prime contractor delivering background investigation services, armed and unarmed contract security officer services, and personnel vetting work to federal agencies on a full-and-open, no-set-aside basis. The company competes on the GSA Multiple Award Schedule and holds three single-award indefinite-delivery contracts with the Federal Aviation Administration and Immigration and Customs Enforcement; it performs 100 percent of work in-house with no subcontractors across all federal engagements.

Adcl's customer concentration is heavily weighted to Department of Homeland Security components. Across 238 total prime awards worth $2.13 billion in combined potential value, the top five customer agencies by dollar value account for 77 percent of pipeline: Customs and Border Protection ($552.2 million across 20 awards), Immigration and Customs Enforcement ($483.4 million across 17 awards), Federal Aviation Administration ($342.2 million across 5 awards), DHS Chief Procurement Officer ($251.7 million across 4 awards), and U.S. Secret Service ($18 million across 4 awards). The award-count ranking diverges slightly—Department of Energy and Department of Commerce Office of the Secretary each carry 29 awards—but those agencies represent minimal dollar value compared to the security and investigation workload anchoring the portfolio. Recent representative work includes a $48.1 million BPA call from Customs and Border Protection for background investigation services (awarded February 1, 2026), a $13.3 million call from Immigration and Customs Enforcement for Office of Professional Responsibility investigations (awarded September 30, 2026), a $109.1 million single-award indefinite-delivery contract with the Federal Aviation Administration for 24/7 armed contract security officer services across 17 western facilities (awarded March 17, 2026), and a $4.8 million BPA call from the Transportation Security Administration for Tier 5 background investigation services (awarded September 30, 2026). Adcl also performs residency verification and investigative services for the Social Security Administration and security guard services for the Department of Interior Bureau of Indian Education.

Adcl holds multiple GSA Multiple Award Schedule vehicles. On the primary MAS, 96 task orders carry $1.71 billion in combined potential value. The vendor also sits on the Human Resources and Equal Employment Opportunity Services vehicle (31 task orders, $666.9 million) and holds single-award IDIQs: an $85 million BPA with Immigration and Customs Enforcement for background investigation services (awarded April 10, 2026, expiring July 15, 2029), a $109.1 million FAA indefinite-delivery contract for armed contract security officer services in the Western Service Area (awarded March 17, 2026, expiring March 29, 2027), and a $25.1 million FAA indefinite-delivery contract for security officer services in the Southeastern Service Area (awarded August 28, 2025, expiring March 29, 2027). The vendor's FAA Eastern Service Area security contract expired September 29, 2025.

Activity has grown unevenly—four awards in 2022 and 2023, seven in 2024, three in 2025, and nine in 2026—with ten awards (combined potential value $109.8 million) reaching ultimate completion inside the next twenty-four months and therefore subject to recompete. Across the NAICS portfolio, Adcl's primary categories are Investigation and Personal Background Check Services (44 awards), Administrative Management and General Management Consulting Services (43 awards), and Security Guards and Patrol Services (37 awards), with minimal exposure to janitorial and security systems work.

SCI-reported invoicing on federal service contracts above the $150,000 threshold totaled $99.2 million across FY2022–FY2025, with $41.8 million invoiced in FY2024 and $23.2 million in FY2025. The SCI dataset shows roughly 171 FTEs delivered in FY2024 and 130 FTEs in FY2025, representing investigative and security personnel on capture federal contracts. On those SCI-reportable prime contracts, government-paid median rates ran around $121.74 per hour, with investigator and analyst roles clustered between $84 and $107 per hour and senior investigative labor pricing through $563.84 per hour. Adcl's active GSA labor schedule carries 16 categories priced from $53.82 to $110.87 per hour, spanning unarmed guard, case analyst, access control monitor, field investigator, and lead investigator roles; security-cleared positions (Case Analyst, Field Investigator, Lead Investigator) require bachelor's degrees and five to seven years of relevant experience. The vendor performs zero subcontract hours across its SCI-reportable prime contracts, maintaining vertically integrated service delivery through direct-hire personnel on all federal assignments.
