Blanchard Training & Development Inc.

Blanchard Training & Development Inc., doing business as Blanchard, is a California-based for-profit Subchapter S corporation that sells leadership and management training materials, curricula, and related professional development services to federal agencies as a prime contractor exclusively (100% of 365 recent awards). The company competes on full-and-open contracts without set-aside designation, maintaining a registered federal contractor presence since 2002.

Blanchard's capability portfolio centers on proprietary leadership curricula, primarily the Ken Blanchard Company's Situational Leadership II (SLII) framework and adjacent programs including Building Trust, Team Leadership, Leading People Through Change, Conversational Capacity, Coaching Essentials, Self Leadership, and diversity, equity, and inclusion training. Work is delivered as course materials (participant kits, facilitator kits, virtual platforms), assessments (LBAII/SBAII evaluations), in-person and virtual training workshops, and books and pamphlets. Representative recent work includes a $410,875 firm fixed-price definitive contract awarded by the Defense Finance and Accounting Service (Land and Maritime) in December 2025 for books and pamphlets through January 2031; a $83,385 purchase order from the Air Force (Air Force Materiel Command) in July 2025 for SLII course materials supporting 120 participants at Hill Air Force Base; a $108,492.50 purchase order from U.S. Citizenship and Immigration Services in September 2023 for Blanchard-certified facilitator training in SLII Experience (SLX) curriculum for USCIS supervisory leaders; and a $224,845 purchase order from the Defense Finance and Accounting Service (Land and Maritime) in February 2024 for books and pamphlets through January 2026.

Customer concentration is diffuse across 67 distinct federal agencies, but the top five agencies by potential-value dollars account for 61% of combined potential value. The Defense Finance and Accounting Service (8 awards, $10.9 million) is the largest customer by dollar volume; the Department of Homeland Security Federal Law Enforcement Training Center (16 awards, $1.7 million) leads in award count, while the Department of State Foreign Service Institute (18 awards, $220 thousand) ranks third by count but significantly lower by dollars. The Department of the Air Force Materiel Command Oklahoma City Air Logistics Complex (7 awards, $780 thousand) anchors sustained demand for Ken Blanchard curricula at Tinker Air Force Base, while the Environmental Protection Agency (38 awards through its Research Triangle Park Procurement Operations Division and 23 awards through the Office of Administration and Resource Management, combined $365 thousand) represents high-volume, lower-dollar transactional work.

Blanchard holds seat positions on five named parent vehicles: a Blanket Purchase Agreement (EP07H001602) with 58 task orders valued at $295 thousand; the GSA Multiple Award Schedule with 48 task orders valued at $947 thousand; another Blanket Purchase Agreement (HQ042310A0009) with 6 task orders valued at $905 thousand; an Indefinite Delivery Contract (FA812621D0002) with 5 task orders valued at $347 thousand; and an Indefinite Delivery Contract (DABT1990D0030) with 2 task orders. Most recently, Blanchard was awarded a five-year single-award Indefinite Delivery/Indefinite Quantity contract by Air Force Materiel Command Oklahoma City Air Logistics Complex (November 2025, ceiling $374,675) to provide Ken Blanchard Company training materials and digital platform access through October 2030, and holds a prior Air Force IDIQ (September 2021, ceiling $441,683.46, ultimately completed September 2024) from which multiple delivery orders were issued between $11,497.84 and $126,111.87.

Recent activity is steady at five to six awards per year (2021 through 2025), with only one award (combined potential value $48 thousand) completing within the next twenty-four months, indicating minimal recompete cliff exposure. The company does not subcontract and operates entirely as a prime contractor. Service Contract Inventory data covering federal services contracts above the $150,000 reporting threshold captures only three SCI records (all prime), with $136 thousand invoiced in FY2022 and zero reported FTE and invoicing in FY2023 and FY2024; SCI is a partial view and does not reflect the company's full federal services footprint, which consists predominantly of goods (training materials, books, pamphlets) and lower-dollar service purchases below the SCI reporting threshold. The vendor's award portfolio concentrates in NAICS 541612 (Professional and Management Development Training, 106 awards) and 541611 (Administrative Management and General Management Consulting Services, 117 awards), with secondary work in book publishing (19 awards, PSC Books And Pamphlets, 75 awards).
