About Advanced Concepts Enterprises, Inc.

Written by GovTribe AI ·

Advanced Concepts Enterprises, Inc. (doing business as Aces) is a Fort Walton Beach, Florida-based Service-Disabled Veteran-Owned Small Business, Women-Owned Small Business, and Veteran-Owned Small Business that delivers training, technical support, intelligence services, and engineering for defense and civilian agencies as a prime contractor (92% of recent awards) and subcontractor. All three SBA certifications expire February 25, 2028. Aces competes predominantly under set-aside vehicles — SDVOSB, WOSB, and Total Small Business designations recur across its prime footprint — and holds recent awards on four OASIS+ IDIQs (SDVOSB, WOSB, Unrestricted, and Total Small Business), a GSA Multiple Award Schedule, and single-award agency vehicles.

Aces' customer concentration is sharp and defense-heavy. The top five customer agencies account for 55% of awards and 81% of combined potential value by funding. Air Force Special Operations Command at Hurlburt Field anchors the footprint with 15 awards and $204.5 million combined potential value, followed by Naval Education and Training Command with 9 awards and $126.7 million. Air Force Air Education and Training Command ranks third by dollars ($79.1 million on 2 awards), while Air Force and Air Mobility Command round out the top tier. These relationships are longstanding; Aces holds SAM.gov registration dating to 2003 and AFSOC partnerships spanning multiple delivery orders and functional domains.

Recent prime awards span aircrew and mission training, intelligence support, aerospace structures engineering, and personnel administration instruction. A $96.7 million cost-plus-fixed-fee delivery order from AFSOC, issued June 20, 2025, covers aircrew instruction support through June 19, 2030 under the OASIS+ SDVOSB vehicle. A $31.4 million firm-fixed-price delivery order, effective March 1, 2026, provides non-personal mission readiness and training support to AFSOC headquarters elements and operational wings across active, reserve, and guard components through February 28, 2031. A $33.6 million delivery order (awarded November 1, 2022) from Air Force covers aerospace structures experimental support at Wright-Patterson Air Force Base, Ohio, running through April 30, 2028, with no subcontractor leverage — FY2024 data shows 30.4 FTEs and 63,170 contractor hours at a derived rate of $89.40 per hour, all self-performed. Naval Education and Training Command issued two Command Pay Personnel Administrator (CPPA) instructor delivery orders: a $6 million WOSB set-aside through March 2027 (Virginia Beach, Virginia) and a $1.1 million unrestricted delivery order through September 2025 (Meridian, Mississippi), both under the Multiple Award Schedule. Coast Guard awarded an $8.67 million C5ISR systems engineering delivery order (May 5, 2023) under OASIS SB with completion May 4, 2028; SCI invoicing shows $493 thousand in FY2023 (1.5 FTEs, 3,085 hours at ~$160/hr) and $971 thousand in FY2024 (2.9 FTEs, 6,063 hours), with 39 percent of FY2024 hours subcontracted.

Aces sits on five parent vehicles: One Acquisition Solution for Integrated Services – Small Business (OASIS SB) with 16 task orders and $115.4 million combined potential value; Multiple Award Schedule with 12 task orders and $9.3 million; AFICA Systems Engineering and Technical Assistance V with 8 task orders and $13.3 million; IDC N0018908DZ027 with 7 task orders and $64.6 million (majority CPPA instruction for Naval Education and Training Command); and IDC FA002122D0004 with 3 task orders and $39.8 million. Recent 2025 awards added Aces to four new OASIS+ vehicles with placeholder ceilings through 2030, significantly expanding its multi-agency vehicle footprint.

Activity trajectory shows volatility. Award volume peaked at 7 per year in 2022 and 2023, dropped to 3 in 2024, then recovered to 6 in 2025 with 1 award recorded in 2026 year-to-date. Eight awards (combined potential value $170.4 million) face ultimate completion within the next twenty-four months, creating recompete risk and opportunity concentration. Total awards across all sources now number 83 with $594.3 million combined potential value ($292 million obligated, representing 49% of ceiling).

Aces' capability portfolio grounds in defense training and technical services. Top NAICS codes cluster in Engineering Services (36 awards), Administrative Management and General Management Consulting Services (14 awards), and All Other Miscellaneous Schools and Instruction (8 awards). Top PSCs are Support–Professional: Program Management/Support (24 awards) and Support–Professional: Other (21 awards), with Education/Training–Training/Curriculum Development (8 awards) and Support–Professional: Engineering/Technical (7 awards) following. This distribution reflects AFSOC training dominance, Navy personnel-administration instruction, and Air Force engineering contract positions.

SCI-reported invoicing on federal service contracts grew from $8 million in FY2022 to $23.4 million in FY2024, with workforce scaling from 35.9 FTEs in FY2022 to 98.6 FTEs in FY2024 across a five-prime-contract base. Median government-paid hourly rates on SCI contracts ran $80.97/hr, with 10th percentile at $55.15/hr and 90th percentile at $160.19/hr. Aces maintains a subcontracting model: across its prime SCI contracts, 39% of contractor hours are subcontracted to an average of 10 named subcontractors per contract cycle, indicating a build-to-order delivery posture rather than in-house scaling. GSA Schedule labor offerings span 17 categories from Technical Specialist at $37.72/hr (high school education, security-cleared) to Subject Matter Expert at $133.87/hr (master's degree, five years experience, security-cleared), supporting training, management, engineering, and advisory roles.

Aces subcontracts to larger defense primes: Colsa Corp for SCAT 1 engineering and acquisition support (awarded October 29, 2025), and Sawdey Solution Services Inc. for AMC/A3 subject-matter expertise and MAF operational requirements analysis (multiple funding actions in 2023). These sub relationships anchor Aces as a delivery vehicle for program management and technical labor under larger integrator prime contracts. The vendor's footprint reflects a core competency in defense training delivery, AFSOC mission specialization, and personnel-instruction services, with secondary engineering and program-support work through both OASIS vehicles and single-award agency contracts.
