About the company
American Plaque Company, doing business as Plaquesandpatches.com, manufactures custom wooden plaques, hand-carved seals, badges, and insignia for federal agencies as a Service Disabled Veteran Owned Small Business (SDVOSB), competing predominantly on a full-and-open basis without set-aside designation. Headquartered in Mishawaka, Indiana, American Plaque is a for-profit Subchapter S corporation owned by a service-disabled veteran; it operates as a prime contractor on 92% of its recent awards, with the balance routed through subcontract arrangements.
American Plaque's federal footprint is spread across 15 customer agencies, with no dominant buyer but meaningful concentration in law enforcement and defense. The top five customers by potential value account for 71% of combined award value: the Department of the Air Force (3 awards, $56 thousand), the Department of Justice Federal Bureau of Investigation Headquarters Division (4 awards, $52 thousand), the Department of Justice Drug Enforcement Administration (2 awards, $31 thousand), the Department of the Army (2 awards, $26 thousand), and the Department of Justice Office of the Inspector General (1 award, $20 thousand). The portfolio shows mixed ranking signals — the FBI headquarters placement ranks highest by award count but second by dollars — indicating a customer base of many small, episodic procurements rather than sustained task-order relationships. Representative recent prime work includes a $11,376 firm-fixed-price court seal for a new courtroom awarded by the Department of Justice in January 2025, a $20,384 purchase order from the DOJ Office of the Inspector General for OIG seal replacements in February 2024, and a $13,358 order from the Bureau of Diplomatic Security for Special Agent badge displays in July 2022. A single $789 plaque order from Naval Sea Systems Command was awarded in June 2026.
American Plaque's capability portfolio is tightly scoped to custom wooden items and signage. Top product categories span All Other Miscellaneous Wood Product Manufacturing (9 awards), Sign Manufacturing (5 awards), and Hardwood Veneer and Plywood Manufacturing (3 awards) by NAICS; by PSC, Signs, Advertising Displays, and Identification Plates anchor 11 awards and Badges and Insignia account for 5. The vendor has received two subcontract plaques under NASA's Expendable Launch Vehicle Integrated Support 3 (ELVIS 3) contract in support of the Commercial Crew Program, both awarded in September 2022. Activity trajectory shows sporadic placement — one to three awards per year across the past five years — with combined potential value of $260 thousand against obligated dollars of $355 thousand, signaling awards that run above their initially stated ceiling. No standing IDIQs, GWACs, or BPAs appear in the source; American Plaque competes on individual purchase orders and firm-fixed-price contracts, not task-order vehicles.
