American Communications Solutions, LLC

American Communications Solutions, LLC, a service-disabled veteran-owned small business (SDVOSB) headquartered in Fairfax Station, Virginia, delivers communications infrastructure, IT sustainment, and data warehouse support services to federal agencies as both a prime contractor (26% of recent awards) and a subcontractor (74%), with 74 awards totaling $22.4 billion in combined potential value across recent activity. The vendor operates through multiple SDVOSB-certified subsidiaries—Alpha Communications Services LLC, Bravo Communications Services LLC, and Full Spectrum Operations LLC—and competes predominantly under SDVOSB set-asides on veteran-focused vehicles, with recent prime work split between SDVOSB Sole Source and SDVOSB Competitive designations.

The vendor's capability portfolio centers on communications systems maintenance, IT infrastructure sustainment, enterprise data warehouse support, and quality assurance services for federal IT operations. Representative prime work includes a $36.9 million SDVOSB set-aside delivery order from the VA Technology Acquisition Center for enterprise data warehouse support services through the T4NG IDIQ (award date March 2022, ultimate completion March 2024); a $5.79 million SDVOSB delivery order from the same VA entity for quality assurance web application sustainment support under T4NG (award date January 2025, running through February 2028); a $10.5 million SDVOSB delivery order from the VA Technology Acquisition Center on the GSA Multiple Award Schedule for privacy policy guidance and veteran communications support (award date September 2023, ultimate completion October 2027); and a $3.5 million definitive contract from the Defense Information Systems Agency for J3 DJOC training curriculum development (award date November 2021). In May 2026, the vendor received a $190.8 thousand definitive contract from the Federal Aviation Administration for lifecycle in-service support of a high frequency single sideband radio system, with an additional funding increment of $18.4 thousand for equipment price increases.

Customer concentration is heavily weighted toward the Department of Veterans Affairs Technology Acquisition Center, which accounts for 18 awards with $22.39 billion in combined potential value—nearly 100% of the vendor's dollar concentration. This creates acute recompete exposure: two awards with ultimate completion dates in the next twenty-four months carry combined potential value of $16.3 million. Beyond the VA, the vendor has placed smaller awards with the Defense Information Systems Agency ($7 million), the GSA Federal Acquisition Service ($475 thousand), the Federal Aviation Administration ($454 thousand), and the Department of Homeland Security Customs and Border Protection ($206 thousand), distributed across ten distinct federal customer agencies. The top four customer agencies account for 91% of recent award count.

The vendor's primary vehicle positioning sits on the Transformation Twenty-One Total Technology Next Generation (T4NG) IDIQ under the VA, where 14 task orders carry $82.3 million in combined potential value. The vendor also holds a seat on the GSA Multiple Award Schedule (4 task orders, $10.6 million) and on the Scalable Homeland Innovative Enterprise Layered Defense (SHIELD) multiple-award IDIQ awarded by the Missile Defense Agency on December 29, 2025 (1 initial task order valued at $500). A legacy vehicle, Indefinite Delivery Contract FA252121D0003, shows 46 historical task orders but appears to be winding down. The SHIELD IDIQ, with a $151 billion ceiling and ten-year performance window through December 2035, represents potential growth exposure in defense systems procurement, though the initial delivery order is minimal.

Activity shows growth from 12 awards in 2022 to a peak of 19 in 2023 and 17 in 2024, with only 5 awards recorded in 2025 and 2 year-to-date in 2026—a significant decline that correlates with the VA customer concentration risk. SCI-reported invoicing across prime contracts totaled $34.3 million over FY2022–FY2024 ($12 million in FY2022, $12 million in FY2023, $10.4 million in FY2024), with federal workforce delivery of 62.7 FTEs in FY2022, declining to 36.1 FTEs in FY2023, then recovering to 48.3 FTEs in FY2024. Government-paid hourly rates on SCI-reportable prime work span a median of $103.38 per hour, with the 10th percentile at $55.43 per hour and the 90th percentile at $237.58 per hour, indicating a broad labor mix from junior infrastructure roles to senior engineering positions.

The vendor operates as a significant user of subcontractors on its prime contracts: across SCI-reportable prime contracts, subcontractors performed an average of 42% of total contractor hours, with 26 distinct named subcontractors recorded. On the subcontractor side, American Communications Solutions regularly flows through Pro-Sphere Tek, Inc. (enterprise messaging, collaboration, authentication, and Office 365 support; system administration and security administration work) and Full Spectrum Operations LLC (communications systems maintenance and operations support at Cape Canaveral Space Force Station and other Space Force installations, including Eastern and Western Operational Communications Services—EWOCS—work, zero-trust security architecture, and orbital vehicle communications). The vendor also subcontracts to Accenture Federal Services on VA DevSecOps development work and to By Light Professional IT Services on MyHealtheVet portal modernization. Across SCI records, the vendor shows 21 named-subcontractor instances, with full Spectrum Operations representing the largest flow in recent years.

The category concentration reflects the communications and IT services portfolio: Wired Telecommunications Carriers (NAICS 517311) dominates with 46 awards, followed by Computer Systems Design Services (17 awards) and Custom Computer Programming Services (3 awards). This NAICS split underscores the vendor's dual identity as a communications infrastructure provider and IT software-development shop, with the telecommunications framing anchoring Space Force communications work and the IT services framing supporting VA application sustainment.
