Allison Payment Systems, LLC

Allison Payment Systems, LLC, doing business as Kodiak Business Forms DIV, operates as a small-business federal prime contractor (98% of recent awards) delivering printing, packaging, and outbound mail distribution services to the Federal Emergency Management Agency, with a concentrated customer footprint anchored to FEMA's disaster response and emergency management operations.

The Indianapolis, Indiana–headquartered company competes predominantly full-and-open, with no set-aside designations on the individual task orders in the source record, though the underlying indefinite delivery contract with FEMA carries a small-business set-aside designation. Allison Payment Systems holds a single primary parent vehicle: a $4.36 million small-business-set-aside indefinite delivery contract with FEMA (IDC 70FB7021D00000012), awarded February 26, 2021, from which it has issued twelve task orders worth $5.2 million in combined potential value. Two additional IDCs (HSFE7015D0111 and HSFEHQ10D1417) account for the remaining 23 task orders. The vendor's service portfolio centers on outbound mail operations, business forms production, and payment processing solutions, with performance locations primarily in Washington, D.C. and Indianapolis. Representative work includes a $1.37 million delivery order awarded August 1, 2024, for outbound mail surge operations supporting Texas disaster relief (DR-4798-TX), a $454.9 thousand task order from November 26, 2024, for surge mail services across Florida, South Carolina, Georgia, and North Carolina, and a $250 thousand baseline delivery order from April 29, 2026, for outbound mail operations in support of disaster response activities.

Customer concentration is extreme: FEMA and its organizational divisions account for 100% of awards and 100% of combined potential value ($153.8 million across 40 awards). Within FEMA, the Community Survivor Assistance Section anchors the customer by potential value (11 awards, $107.7 million), while the Incident Support Section (13 awards, $35 million) and the parent Federal Emergency Management Agency (16 awards, $11.1 million) round out the remainder. A single $1 sub-award from National Government Services, Inc., for Medicare Administrative Contractor print and mail services (awarded May 1, 2022), represents the vendor's only subcontractor role in the source record. Activity has remained episodic — four awards in 2021, three in 2022, one in 2023, four in 2024, and three in 2026 — with only $475 thousand in combined potential value reaching ultimate completion inside the next twenty-four months and therefore facing recompete exposure.

Service Contract Inventory data covering FY2022–FY2024 shows SCI-reportable prime invoicing of $725 thousand across two prime records, with $364 thousand (1.4 FTEs) in FY2023 and $361 thousand (1.6 FTEs) in FY2024. The SCI dataset reflects only a fraction of the vendor's total federal revenue and excludes goods, products, and non-service revenue; the award footprint's $153.8 million in combined potential value is predominantly goods and distribution services outside the SCI reporting threshold. On the limited SCI-reportable prime contracts, government-paid rates ran median $117.32 per hour, with a range from $109.18 per hour (10th percentile) to $125.45 per hour (90th percentile). The vendor has not named subcontractors on SCI-reportable prime service contracts in the source record. The sub-award from National Government Services represents an exception to the vendor's prime-centric posture; Allison Payment Systems' business model is built on direct delivery to FEMA rather than on feeding larger contractor supply chains.
