Angela Y Sharpe

Angela Y Sharpe, operating as Shrpe & ASO CRT Rptng & Trnc Ser, is a sole proprietorship based in Knightdale, North Carolina, providing transcription and court reporting services to the Department of Defense and Department of Homeland Security as a prime contractor under total small business set-asides and full-and-open competitions. The vendor holds multiple federal certifications: minority-owned, woman-owned, veteran-owned, service-disabled veteran-owned (SDVOSB), and self-certified small disadvantaged business.

Sharpe's federal footprint is narrow and specialized. Over the past five years, the vendor has received 43 prime awards (100% prime, zero sub-awards) valued at $674 thousand combined potential value, with $259 thousand obligated (38% of potential). Annual award volume has grown from one in 2022 to nine in 2025, with three awards year-to-date as of April 2026. All work centers on verbatim transcription services for military legal proceedings, investigative documentation, and administrative requirements.

The Department of the Navy's Secretary of the Navy Judge Advocate General dominates the customer base, accounting for 32 awards (74% of total) and $532 thousand combined potential value (79% of total dollars). The Department of Homeland Security's U.S. Coast Guard provides the second-largest customer set with five awards and $120 thousand combined potential value. Secondary Navy offices (Navy Facilities Engineering Command, Naval Education and Training Command, Chief of Naval Operations) round out the remaining $19 thousand. This concentration reflects Sharpe's core competency in transcription for naval legal services.

Sharpe holds a $412,500 multiple-award indefinite delivery contract (N0018921D0026) with the Department of the Navy's Secretary of the Navy Judge Advocate General, awarded September 1, 2021, and running through August 31, 2026. This vehicle anchors the vendor's business; 22 task orders totaling $79 thousand have been placed against it, with individual delivery orders ranging from $0 to $4,915.68. Performance locations include Japan, San Diego, Norfolk, Bremerton, and Knightdale. Delivery orders are issued as firm fixed-price contracts under the total small business set-aside designation.

Representative recent awards include a $4,245.80 delivery order from the Department of Defense Judge Advocate General on April 14, 2026 for transcription services in connection with Hurricane Harvey (completion May 20, 2026); a $38,400 purchase order from the U.S. Coast Guard on February 16, 2026 for 190 hours of audio transcription and DD Form 490 documentation supporting a military legal proceeding titled "US vs YN2 Richard" (completion February 15, 2027); and a $64,172 Coast Guard purchase order on February 27, 2024 for transcription services for military court proceedings. One award worth $38 thousand faces ultimate completion within the next twenty-four months, presenting minimal recompete exposure.

Sharpe competes entirely under small business set-asides (total small business designations dominate 41 of 43 awards) and does not subcontract; all work is delivered directly by the vendor. The portfolio is concentrated in NAICS 561492 (Court Reporting and Stenotype Services) and PSC Support—Administrative: Transcription, with minimal diversification into document preparation services.
