Applica Solutions, Inc.

Applica Solutions, Inc., a Service-Disabled Veteran-Owned Small Business and SBA HUBZone-certified firm headquartered in Manassas, Virginia, operates as a prime contractor (98% of recent awards) delivering office furniture procurement and installation alongside federal IT services, primarily through the GSA Multiple Award Schedule and the Veterans Technology Services 2 government-wide acquisition contract.

The vendor's footprint splits sharply between two capability streams. The dominant stream—47 awards under NAICS 541512 (Wood Office Furniture Manufacturing) and related furniture codes—comprises design, procurement, delivery, and installation of office and nursing-station furniture for civilian agencies, with individual delivery orders ranging from $10 thousand to $450 thousand. Representative furniture work includes a $85.1 million delivery order from the NIH Clinical Center for nursing-station furniture design and installation (September 2026), a $308.7 thousand HUBZone-set-aside delivery order to NASA Kennedy Space Center for Space Systems Processing Facility furniture (September 2024), and a $640.9 thousand delivery order to the Office of the Director for DHS and Department of Rehabilitation Services furniture (September 2024). The second stream—26 awards under NAICS 541512 (Computer Systems Design Services)—delivers IT services including database administration, data analytics, system administration, and IT technical support to the IRS, USDA, and SBA through VETS 2 and MAS task orders, with individual ceilings ranging from $2.1 million to $9.4 million. The $5.2 million USDA Farm Production and Conservation data analytics support delivery order (August 2023) and the $9.4 million SBA Office of the Chief Information Officer MySBA Unified Experience Structure IT platform order (July 2023) exemplify this segment.

Customer concentration centers on civilian federal agencies. The top five funding agencies by combined potential value account for 100% of the dollars: NASA ($40 billion, driven by a November 2026 SEWP VI multiple-award GWAC award with a $20 billion ceiling); GSA Federal Acquisition Service ($6.1 billion); NIH Office of Logistics and Acquisition Operations ($100.6 million); the Treasury IRS ($16 million); and FEMA ($11.6 million). By award count, the NIH Clinical Center leads with 29 awards ($1.2 million potential value), followed by the IRS with 13 awards ($16 million). The concentration by count and by dollars diverges markedly—the IRS places fewer, larger orders; NIH places numerous small furniture orders. Applica holds a $100 million single-award Blanket Purchase Agreement with the NIH Clinical Center under the GSA MAS vehicle, expiring April 2025, which has anchored repeated task orders for facility renovations and furniture.

Applica's parent vehicle position centers on two primary vehicles. The GSA Multiple Award Schedule hosts 52 task orders with $104.4 million combined potential value, serving NIH Clinical Center, NASA, the IRS, the VA, and other civilian agencies with both furniture and IT services. The Veterans Technology Services 2 GWAC, issued by NASA and reserved for service-disabled veteran-owned small businesses, hosts 22 task orders with $44.7 million combined potential value, concentrated with the IRS (13 awards), USDA (1 award), SBA (1 award), and the VA (3 awards). In November 2026, Applica was awarded a position on the NASA SEWP VI multiple-award GWAC (Total Small Business and Partial Small Business set-asides) with a $20 billion aggregate ceiling through October 2036, covering IT communication and audio-visual solutions for all federal agencies nationwide—the largest single contract ceiling in the portfolio and a vehicle not yet reflected in task-order activity in the source data.

Activity trajectory shows volatility and significant concentration in recent years. Awards per year rose from 9 in 2022 to a peak of 19 in 2023, declined to 17 in 2024, dropped to 7 in 2025, and recovered to 12 in 2026. SCI-reported invoiced revenue (service contracts above $150,000 reporting threshold) totaled $18.8 million across FY2022–FY2025, with the majority concentrated in FY2024 ($14.2 million across 52.0 FTEs). The FY2025 figure is absent from the source, suggesting either a data lag or reduced SCI-reportable activity in that period. Recompete exposure in the next twenty-four months is modest—five awards with combined potential value of $318 thousand reach ultimate completion, with the bulk of the portfolio anchored by the long-term SEWP VI contract (through October 2036) and the MAS and VETS 2 vehicles, which sustain recurring order flow.

SCI-reported invoicing across prime service contracts shows median government-paid rates of $133.76 per hour, with a spectrum spanning $101.29/hr at the tenth percentile to $208.83/hr at the ninety-ninth percentile, reflecting a blend of junior technical labor and senior systems-management expertise. Applica's GSA Schedule labor portfolio spans 138 active categories, from Computer Operators at $35.63/hr (high school, 1 year experience) through SME-level Computer and Information Systems Managers at $217.14/hr (master's degree, 10 years experience), with security clearances required across most roles. Across SCI-reportable prime contracts, subcontractor labor accounted for 12% of total contractor hours on average, with 13 named subcontractors reported across the portfolio, indicating Applica typically self-performs the majority of delivery and brings subs for specialized capability gaps. A subsidiary, Applica JV LLC, holds SDVOSB and HUBZone certifications and is structured as a self-certified joint venture, signaling capability to team under set-aside vehicles.

Prime and sub split shows Applica operates almost exclusively as a prime (98% of awards), with only two subcontract awards in the source data—a September 2026 sub task under Amentum Spaceport LLC for Base Operations and Spaceport Services furniture (Base Operations and Spaceport Services contract), and a November 2023 sub award for environmental consulting services (Public Water System Supervision and Underground Injection Control programs). The vendor competes predominantly under set-asides—SDVOSB and HUBZone designations recur across roughly 40% of the prime award portfolio—and maintains full-and-open capability alongside its set-aside footprint. The combination of SEWP VI position, MAS presence, and VETS 2 GWAC authority positions Applica to bid across civilian and defense ordering offices, with the SDVOSB and HUBZone certifications conferring set-aside eligibility and preference on many federal acquisitions.
