Charter Bus Pros Inc.

Charter Bus Pros Inc., doing business as Charter Linkz, supplies charter bus, shuttle, mini-coach, and sprinter van transportation services to federal agencies exclusively as a prime contractor. The vendor is a self-certified small disadvantaged business headquartered in Staten Island, New York, competing across a mixed posture of total small business set-asides and full-and-open procurements, with roughly 61% of recent prime awards designated as total small business set-asides.

Charter Linkz's customer concentration reflects significant Coast Guard engagement and diversified civilian agency exposure. The top customer by award count is the Department of Transportation Maritime Administration (13 awards, $154 thousand combined potential value), followed by the Department of Homeland Security Coast Guard (11 awards, $2.5 million combined potential value) and the Defense Security Cooperation Agency (6 awards, $109 thousand combined potential value), together representing 63% of all awards. However, potential-value rankings diverge sharply: the Department of the Interior National Park Service anchors the portfolio at $3.1 million (one award), the National Institute of Standards and Technology carries $2.7 million (one award), and the Coast Guard ranks third at $2.5 million despite higher award count. The Department of Veterans Affairs holds two mid-seven-figure awards: a $2.3 million contract with Veterans Integrated Service Network 4 and a $1.6 million shuttle services contract with Veterans Integrated Service Network 17 running through September 2027.

Capability work is consistently granular—individual transportation events and recurring shuttle routes rather than large enterprise contracts. Representative examples include a $2.7 million NIST Gaithersburg campus shuttle services definitive contract (April 2026, full-and-open, base through March 2031 with four one-year options and a six-month extension option), a $1.6 million Department of Veterans Affairs Lufkin roundtrip shuttle services contract (February 2023, total small business set-aside, through September 2027), a $1.5 million Coast Guard recruit transportation delivery order at Cape May, New Jersey (February 2026, total small business set-aside, through January 2031 under GSA Multiple Award Schedule), and a $944 thousand Army School System motor coach contract at Fort Hunter Liggett, California (April 2024, total small business set-aside, base plus four one-year options through April 2029).

Charter Linkz holds two federal indefinite delivery vehicles. The GSA Multiple Award Schedule contract ($500 thousand ceiling, issued November 2022, running through November 2027) funds 19 task orders generating $2.5 million in combined potential value across Transportation Security Administration, Coast Guard, Naval Sea Systems Command, Maritime Administration, Army, and U.S. Fish and Wildlife Service. The U.S. Marshals Service Management Support Division Blanket Purchase Agreement (issued April 2023, $1.3 thousand ceiling, through September 2027 with four one-year option periods) has issued two small task orders totaling $1.3 thousand. Charter Linkz operates these vehicles as the sole contractor and issues no material subcontracts—the vendor functions as a direct service provider, not a prime managing subs.

Activity peaked in 2023 at 22 awards, then declined to 9 awards in 2024 and 6 in 2025, with only 4 awards recorded in 2026 year-to-date. Four awards carrying combined potential value of $5 million face completion deadlines within the next twenty-four months and represent recompete exposure. Combined potential value across the 59-award footprint is $17.3 million with $9.2 million obligated (53% funding rate). The vendor serves 24 distinct federal customer agencies, indicating broad exposure but shallow penetration at each account.
