Award Company Of America, LLC

Award Company Of America, LLC is a self-certified small disadvantaged business located in Tuscaloosa, Alabama, that specializes in the design, production, and delivery of commemorative and recognition products for federal agencies. The company has been registered in SAM.gov since May 14, 2015, and maintains expertise in creating professional memorial and administrative award items that support various federal missions, particularly those honoring veterans and recognizing employee achievements across civilian and defense agencies.

Award Company Of America, LLC has demonstrated extensive experience providing commemorative and recognition products through its federal contract portfolio. The company's primary customer has been the Department of Veterans Affairs National Cemetery Administration, for which it has supplied Presidential Memorial Certificate holders and pre-manufactured concrete markers through multiple delivery orders valued collectively at approximately $2.79 million since 2021. Beyond the VA, the company has fulfilled orders from civilian agencies including the Department of State's Bureau of South and Central Asian Affairs and Bureau of Near Eastern Affairs for certificate folders and frames; the Environmental Protection Agency's Office of Administration and Resource Management for trophies and medals; the Federal Emergency Management Agency for honorary award materials; the Naval Sea Systems Command for recognition plaques; and the Office of Administration and Resource Management for administrative awards and acrylic engraved awards. The company's contract awards have varied in structure, including purchase orders, delivery orders against larger indefinite delivery vehicles, and blanket purchase agreement call orders. A significant portion of Award Company's work has been designated as set-aside awards, including total small business set-asides with FEMA, the EPA, and the VA National Cemetery Administration, reflecting the company's certified small disadvantaged business status and its ability to compete in reserved contracting opportunities.

Award Company Of America, LLC maintains two significant federal contract indefinite delivery vehicles. The primary vehicle is a $2.948 million Indefinite Delivery Contract with the Department of Veterans Affairs National Cemetery Administration, established October 1, 2021 and extending through September 30, 2026, designated as a total small business set-aside. Under this contract, the company has received four delivery orders totaling approximately $1.79 million to supply and deliver Presidential Memorial Certificate holders nationwide to support the VA's veteran memorial programs. The most recent delivery order, awarded January 9, 2026, valued at $643,896, exercises the optional year four and represents continued demand for the company's primary product offering. The second IDV is a $500,000 Blanket Purchase Agreement issued by the Office of Administration and Resource Management under the General Services Administration's Multiple Award Schedule on April 16, 2024, extending through April 15, 2029, also designated as a total small business set-aside. This BPA provides OARM with the ability to issue task orders for commemorative and recognition items including trophies, medals, plaques, certificates, and frames. The multiple award schedule vehicle has generated task orders from OARM for administrative awards, as well as call orders from other agencies including the Bureau of Consular Affairs for awards, certificates, and plaques. Together, these two IDVs position Award Company Of America, LLC as an established provider of commemorative products across multiple federal agencies, with the VA National Cemetery Administration contract representing the company's most substantial and consistent revenue stream.
