Celf Services, LLC

Celf Services, LLC, doing business as Datacast Concepts, operates as a veteran-owned small business manufacturer delivering electroplating, polishing, anodizing, metal treatment, and surface finishing services to the U.S. Army as a prime contractor (100% of recent awards) under total small business set-asides. The company is headquartered in Chambersburg, Pennsylvania, and competes predominantly in set-aside categories, with its federal footprint anchored by a single customer—the Department of the Army Materiel Command Contracting Command Redstone Arsenal—accounting for 981 of 985 recent awards and 87% of combined potential value.

Celf Services' capability portfolio centers on metal finishing and protective coating services for defense manufacturing and maintenance. Work spans electroplating, anodizing, polishing, and chemical treatment processes applied to missile defense components, with primary focus on the Patriot Advanced Capability-3 Missile Segment Enhancement (PAC-3 MSE) program at Letterkenny Army Depot. Representative contract work includes a $18,385.64 delivery order issued January 20, 2026, for metal plating purchases supporting PAC-3 MSE components; a $4,572.80 delivery order placed April 8, 2025, for metal plating and treatment services; and a $3,682.91 delivery order from September 25, 2024, for metal plating and treatment services at Letterkenny Army Depot. The vendor also holds a minor contract for cable and harness parts ($2,639.48 BPA call) supporting fabrication and repair work for PAC-3 MSE. Beyond missile defense, a single $5,000 award appears in Homeland Security Coast Guard work and another $5,000 award in United States Marine Corps work, though both remain marginal to the overall footprint.

Celf Services sits on multiple parent vehicles through ACC Redstone. The top vehicle, Indefinite Delivery Contract W911N219D0006, carries 363 task orders with $375 thousand combined potential value. Indefinite Delivery Contract W911N217D0027 accounts for 168 task orders worth $254 thousand. Three blanket purchase agreements follow: W911N218A0019 (129 task orders, $114 thousand), W911N213A0011 (94 task orders, $85 thousand), and W911N223A0034 (88 task orders, $76 thousand). The vendor holds a single-award indefinite-delivery contract valued at $811,603.52, awarded October 15, 2024, running through October 14, 2027, for metal plating and treatment services at Letterkenny Army Depot under total small business set-aside.

Award volume has remained steady but compressed—103 awards in 2022, 115 in 2023, declining to 96 in 2024 and 91 in 2025, with 4 awards issued year-to-date in 2026. The vendor's footprint reflects highly concentrated, transactional procurement: approximately 926 awards (94% of the recent portfolio) are categorized under NAICS 332813 (Electroplating, Plating, Polishing, Anodizing, and Coloring), with 921 awards coded under PSC J010 (Maintenance and Repair of Equipment—Weapons). Individual delivery orders under the parent IDIQs and BPAs range from $10 to $18,385.64, with the majority falling in the low hundreds to low thousands, indicating high-frequency, small-dollar transactional demand rather than consolidated program presence. Combined potential value across all 985 awards reaches approximately $40 million, but only $2.2 million (6% of potential value) has been obligated, underscoring the difference between ceiling value and actual spend in small-order environments.

Celf Services operates as a 100% prime contractor with no subcontract footprint in the source data. The business structure is described as a for-profit limited liability partnership and manufacturer of goods. The vendor's market position is narrow and specialized: a veteran-owned, small-disadvantaged business competing exclusively or predominantly under total small business set-asides, with near-total customer concentration at a single Army contracting command. The PAC-3 MSE program anchors revenue and pipeline visibility; recompete exposure centers on renewal or competition for the underlying IDIQs and BPAs that govern task order flow through Letterkenny Army Depot.
