California Industrial Facilities Resources, Inc.

California Industrial Facilities Resources, Inc., doing business as Camss Shelters, a Monroe, Washington–based manufacturer of portable military shelter systems and expeditionary infrastructure, operates as a prime contractor (99% of recent awards) on full-and-open federal procurements with no recurring small business set-aside posture. The company is a for-profit Subchapter S Corporation competing predominantly in the $800 million single-award Indefinite Delivery Contract vehicle with the Defense Logistics Agency and a $36.4 million General Services Administration Multiple Award Schedule contract, both of which underpin its federal footprint.

Camss Shelters' capability portfolio centers on design, manufacture, and delivery of deployable shelter systems—canvas tents, frame shelters, medium and small shelter systems, environmental control units, storage containers, and modular structures—for military training, expeditionary operations, and emergency response. Representative work includes a $46,266 delivery order from the Department of Defense Clothing and Textiles division for tan canvas military shelter systems (October 2025), a $309,770 total small business set-aside purchase order from Air Force Air Mobility Command for a command and expeditionary shelter at Travis Air Force Base (September 2025), a $23,650 total small business set-aside purchase order from NASA Shared Services Center for a custom containment tent at Langley Research Center (September 2025), and a $231,250 delivery order from Air Forces Europe and Africa for twelve small shelter tents to Camp Simba in Manda Bay, Kenya, under the GSA Multiple Award Schedule (September 2024). The vendor has also supplied specialized products including electromagnetic shielded tents, CBCS UTS tent systems, Explosive Ordnance Disposal shelter installation, and replacement tent fabrics and skins for the Rapid Housing System.

Customer concentration is extreme and vehicle-driven. The Defense Logistics Agency Troop Support Clothing and Textiles function dominates, placing 11 awards worth $809.8 million in combined potential value—80% of the vendor's entire portfolio. The top five customer entities account for 34% of award count but the DLA concentration telescopes that into a single funding stream. The Department of the Air Force and its major commands (Air Combat Command, United States Air Forces in Europe–Air Forces Africa, Air Education and Training Command, Air Mobility Command) collectively drive 129 awards across $13.2 million potential value, but these are smaller task orders scattered across training, overseas operations, and routine equipment needs. The Department of Homeland Security Customs and Border Protection, Department of State Bureau of International Narcotics Law Enforcement, Department of Veterans Affairs, and Department of the Army supply the remainder in single- to double-digit award volumes at sub-million scales. Camss Shelters has served 93 distinct agencies across the federal government.

The vendor's two parent vehicles are the DLA single-award IDC (ultimate completion October 20, 2025; no ceiling specified in the source but the IDC award ceiling is $800 million) and the GSA Multiple Award Schedule (ultimate completion October 2025; $36.4 million contract value). The DLA vehicle dominates—160 task orders under a classification labeled "Buildings and Building Materials" with $30.1 million combined potential value across the source portfolio. The GSA schedule carries 25 task orders worth $3.1 million. Below these anchors sit several smaller IDCs including SPE1C122D1500 (5 task orders, $261 thousand), SPE1C115D1081 (3 task orders, $4.5 million), and FA852721D0011 (1 task order). The primary classification profile sits in NAICS prefabricated metal building and component manufacturing (225 awards), textile bag and canvas mills (61 awards), and canvas and related product mills (24 awards), with PSC codes driven by tents and tarpaulins (157 awards) and prefabricated and portable buildings (126 awards).

Activity has been volatile. The source shows eleven awards in 2021, a sharp drop to four in 2022, recovery to 24 in 2023, a decline to 15 in 2024, and 13 in 2025. The DLA IDC vehicle expires October 20, 2025, representing a recompete cliff of known strategic importance to the vendor. The vendor also carries a subcontract relationship with L3 Technologies Inc. (environmental control system work on Project TMET Controller, January 2025) and Atlantic Diving Supply Inc. (main cover tan, August 2024). These are minimal—two sub-awards across the entire portfolio—and do not characterize the business model. Camss Shelters operates as a direct prime manufacturer, not a subcontracting service provider.
