Aleto, Inc.

Aleto, Inc., an SBA 8(a) certified minority-owned and Hispanic American-owned small disadvantaged business, operates as a prime contractor delivering office furniture procurement, facilities management, space planning, and professional services to federal agencies across civilian and defense sectors. Headquartered in Arlington, Virginia, the company competes predominantly on 8(a) sole-source awards and full-and-open delivery orders under existing indefinite delivery vehicles and GSA schedules, with 100% of recent awards held as prime contracts.

The vendor's capability portfolio centers on furniture procurement and installation, interior architecture and design, workspace optimization, facilities support services, and strategic consulting. Representative work includes a $4.5 million (increased to $5.4 million) 8(a) sole-source IDIQ with the Department of Transportation for interior architecture, furniture management, design, layout, and procurement services; a $40.47 million 8(a) sole-source IDIQ with the Department of the Army for facilities management and real estate programs in the National Capital Region; and a $23 million single-award contract with the Environmental Protection Agency for strategic planning and space management. Recent delivery orders exemplify the scope: a $472,161.68 award from the Federal Railroad Administration for wardrobes and sit-to-stand legs supporting DOT headquarters office reconfiguration; a $536,872.94 Federal Transit Administration order for office furniture procurement and installation at DOT's West Building; a $4.49 million Food and Drug Administration contract for Facility Operations and Concessions Support Services; and a $484,837.29 Air Force Life Cycle Management Center order for Tableau data visualization and analytics services. GSA Schedule labor offerings span from Assistant Project Manager ($87.33/hr, bachelor's, 2 years experience) through Program Manager ($228.04/hr, master's, 12 years experience), with no security clearance requirements.

Customer concentration is extreme. The Department of the Army Headquarters Office of the Secretary dominates both award count and dollar value: 131 awards representing $73.1 million of potential value (28% of the portfolio). The GSA Federal Acquisition Service leads by award count with 346 awards carrying only $13 million in potential value—predominantly small-dollar furniture delivery orders ranging from roughly $2,100 to $50,000. The Department of Education Office of the Chief Financial Officer anchors $60.6 million in potential value across only four awards, driven by a $700,000 FM:Systems software license and support contract (8(a) sole source, Department of Education, September 2025) and an unspecified larger education-sector vehicle. The Department of Transportation's Immediate Office of the Secretary adds 20 awards totaling $18 million. Together, these four customer entities account for approximately 92% of portfolio potential value. The Environmental Protection Agency ($23 million, single award), Defense Health Agency ($16.3 million across 5 awards), and the U.S. Patent and Trademark Office ($11.7 million across 8 awards, mostly BPA calls for office equipment) round out the major customer set.

Aleto sits on multiple high-activity parent vehicles. The Missile Defense Agency's Scalable Homeland Innovative Enterprise Layered Defense (SHIELD) IDIQ—a 151 billion-dollar, multiple-award vehicle extending through December 2035—carried one $500 initial delivery order to Aleto as of the source date. The Department of the Army's W91CRB23D0029 IDIQ generated 83 task orders worth $14.1 million collectively. The GSA Multiple Award Schedule hosts 64 task orders valued at $85 million combined. The Department of the Army's W91CRB21D0021 IDIQ produced 46 task orders for $6 million. The Department of Transportation's 693JK426D500003 IDIQ (the 8(a) sole-source facilities vehicle) generated 14 task orders totaling $4.2 million. Aleto's presence on SHIELD and major GSA and Army vehicles positions it to pursue task orders across defense modernization, facilities, and civilian workspace optimization procurements.

Activity trajectory shows rapid growth. Awards per year accelerated from 17 in 2022 to 109 in 2023, 206 in 2024, 143 in 2025, and 73 in the partial-year 2026 record. Combined potential value stands at $261.2 million across 563 total awards (562 prime, 1 sub), with $81.1 million obligated (31% of potential). Eighty-three awards totaling $42.9 million in potential value complete within the next twenty-four months, representing significant recompete exposure and opportunity.

Aleto's service-contract footprint (SCI data, FY2022–FY2024) shows modest but growing scale on reportable contracts. Invoiced revenue climbed from $1.8 million (FY2022, 4.8 FTEs) to $5.5 million (FY2023, 17.4 FTEs) to $6.8 million (FY2024, 16.8 FTEs)—a roughly 3.8x increase over three years. Government-paid median hourly rates on prime contracts ran $138.03/hr, with senior roles commanding $215.67/hr (90th percentile) and entry-level roles at $101.11/hr (10th percentile). Across SCI-reportable prime contracts, subcontractors performed approximately 14% of total hours, with ten named subs appearing across the dataset. The subcontractor footprint remains small; SCI records do not identify specific primes beyond a single sub-award to Netimpact Strategies Inc. for DHA space planning work (September 2025).

Aleto operates through three named subsidiaries: Aleto West 4TH JV, LLC (a small business joint venture, minority-owned, Hispanic American-owned); Logis-Tech, LLC (a goods manufacturer, minority-owned, Hispanic American-owned); and Cloud Nine Alliance LLC (a joint venture, minority-owned, Hispanic American-owned, self-certified SDB). These subsidiaries may support specialized capability delivery but remain structurally subordinate to the parent.

The vendor competes almost exclusively under 8(a) sole-source set-asides on its largest prime IDIQs (Army, Transportation, Air Force, Education) and full-and-open Competitive 8(a) or unset-aside delivery orders against GSA and agency BPAs. The GSA Federal Acquisition Service award volume is driven by hundreds of routine furniture delivery orders at micro to small-dollar amounts, reflecting Aleto's role as a reliable, geographically proximate furniture procurement vendor for National Capital Region federal agencies. The larger dollar concentration with Army, Education, and EPA reflects strategic IDIQ positioning and sole-source 8(a) access. The small subcontractor engagement (1 sub award in source data, 14% sub-hours on SCI contracts) indicates Aleto primarily builds and staffs its own delivery teams rather than leading consortia or acting as a feeder to larger primes.
