Eco-Friendly Cleaning Specialist, LLC

Eco-Friendly Cleaning Specialist, LLC, a minority-owned, Black American-owned small disadvantaged business based in Gonzales, Louisiana, provides janitorial and grounds maintenance services to 44 distinct federal agencies as a prime contractor across 113 awards valued at $19.8 million combined potential. The company operates exclusively under small-business set-asides (predominantly Total Small Business designations, with a small subset of full-and-open competitive awards), reflecting its foundational positioning in the federal market.

The vendor's capability portfolio centers on concrete facility maintenance: daily, weekly, and periodic janitorial services including floor care, restroom sanitation, waste removal, window washing, and disinfection protocols, supplemented by landscaping and grounds maintenance work. Representative awards include a $708,792 definitive contract from the Federal Aviation Administration (FAA) for janitorial services at five air traffic control towers across Illinois and Iowa, a $1.299 million FAA definitive contract for eight ATCTs in Illinois and Wisconsin with enhanced service protocols during the Oshkosh Air Show, a $861,963 USDA Forest Service definitive contract for the Wildland Fire and Training Center at McClellan, California, a $569,437 USDA Animal and Plant Health Inspection Service contract for the Plant Protection and Quarantine division in Gonzales, Louisiana, and a $535,292 FAA definitive contract for the Pittsburgh ATCT. The company demonstrates capability scaling from small single-facility orders around $20,000 to multi-location contracts exceeding $1.2 million.

Customer concentration leans heavily toward civilian transportation and commerce agencies. The National Oceanic and Atmospheric Administration (NOAA) dominates by award count (31 awards, $2.2 million potential value), reflecting a sustained relationship across weather forecast offices nationwide. The FAA Headquarters and regions trail by count but lead by dollar value: FAA Headquarters holds 14 awards worth $5.3 million and FAA Southwestern Region carries 8 awards for $1.6 million. The top five customers account for 54% of awards by count and 59% of potential value. Other significant customers include the Department of the Interior (Bureau of Land Management, Fish and Wildlife Service, Bureau of Reclamation), Department of Agriculture Forest Service (multiple regions), U.S. Army Corps of Engineers, and Department of Veterans Affairs. The vendor serves no prime defense contractors as a subcontractor; 100% of awards are prime contracts.

Activity has grown year over year from 10 awards in 2022 to 22 in 2025, followed by 10 awards through September 2026 (partial year). Twenty-eight awards carrying combined potential value of $4.8 million face ultimate completion within the next twenty-four months, presenting significant recompete exposure. The vendor's contract base is increasingly multi-year: typical awards run base periods of one year plus four one-year option periods (five-year potential span), with many reflecting exercise of options already underway. Obligated dollars stand at $12.4 million (63% of combined potential), indicating active performance across the portfolio.

The company operates under NAICS 561720 (Janitorial Services) for the vast majority of work (106 awards) and NAICS 561730 (Landscaping Services) for five awards. All work is performed on a firm fixed-price basis. The vendor supplies all labor, materials, equipment, and supervision per typical statement-of-work language, with environmental compliance recurring across awards (Green Seal-certified products, bio-preferred materials requirements per Forest Service contracts). Service Contract Act wage determinations apply across most awards; personnel must pass background investigations where required. The company maintains active SAM registration since March 2017 and self-certifies as a small disadvantaged business and minority-owned enterprise.
