Daniel R. Chisholm

Daniel R. Chisholm, doing business as State-Side Auto Supply, is a sole proprietorship based in Northfield, New Hampshire, that supplies automotive parts, tires, tools, and vehicle maintenance equipment to the Department of State as a prime contractor across 488 purchase orders with no subcontract activity. The vendor operates exclusively in the full-and-open market with no SBA set-aside certifications.

State-Side Auto Supply's capability portfolio centers on automotive aftermarket parts and fleet maintenance supplies for diplomatic vehicle operations. Representative work includes a $31,386 purchase order from the Bureau of African Affairs for tires (September 2026), a $15,225 order from the Bureau of European and Eurasian Affairs for armored-fleet tires (September 2026), and a $17,203 order from the Bureau of Diplomatic Security for automotive parts and vehicle maintenance equipment (September 2026). The vendor also supplies specialized items including welding machines, LED fixtures for chancery buildings, hand-held radios, inspection equipment, and workshop tools. Work is performed in Northfield, New Hampshire, with place-of-performance flexibility for diplomatic posts overseas, including U.S. Embassy Manila and posts across Africa and the Middle East.

Customer concentration is extreme and singular. The Department of State accounts for substantially all awards—77% of recent awards concentrate within five State Department bureaus: the Bureau of African Affairs (105 awards, $988 thousand), the Bureau of Near Eastern Affairs (89 awards, $1.3 million), a consolidated "Department of State" line (99 awards, $687 thousand), the Bureau of Western Hemisphere Affairs (45 awards, $351 thousand), and the Bureau of European and Eurasian Affairs (36 awards, $225 thousand). By dollar value, the same five customer segments account for 81% of combined potential value, with the Bureau of Near Eastern Affairs anchoring the largest commitment at $1.3 million across 89 awards. This concentration reflects State-Side Auto Supply's decades-long relationship with State Department vehicle fleet logistics—the source notes 485 prior awards to the vendor since 2001, concentrated primarily within the Bureaus of African Affairs, Near Eastern Affairs, and Western Hemisphere Affairs.

The vendor places task orders under three blanket purchase agreements within the State Department: SEG30013A0033 (8 task orders, $54 thousand combined potential value), SEG30014A0010 (7 task orders, $40 thousand combined potential value), and SEG30015A0031 (1 task order, $6 thousand combined potential value). These are agency-level BPAs rather than government-wide vehicles; the vendor holds no GWAC or multi-agency contract positions.

Activity has declined year over year. The vendor received 9 awards in 2022, 21 in 2023, 17 in 2024, 4 in 2025, and 4 in 2026 (through mid-September), reflecting a downward trajectory. Only 3 awards with combined potential value of $64 thousand reach ultimate completion in the next twenty-four months, presenting minimal recompete exposure in the near term but also signaling reduced procurement momentum. The vendor's combined potential value across all 488 awards totals $4.3 million, with $4.4 million obligated—effectively all available value has been invoiced.

The vendor's primary NAICS coding aligns with Motor Vehicle Supplies and New Parts Merchant Wholesalers (133 awards), Automotive Parts and Accessories Stores (52 awards), and Tire Dealers (16 awards). PSC codes reflect the same scope: Motor Vehicle Maintenance and Repair Shop Specialized Equipment (180 awards), Miscellaneous Vehicular Components (65 awards), and Tires (13–28 awards across pneumatic and specialized categories). State-Side Auto Supply operates as a transactional vendor executing small, recurring purchase orders for spare parts and consumables rather than as a systems integrator or large-scale program contractor.
