About the company
ELY Inc., a woman-owned small business headquartered in Upper Marlboro, Maryland, provides fine arts services to federal agencies as a prime contractor, specializing in art handling, conservation, installation, crating, mounting and de-mounting, transportation, and cyclical maintenance of government art collections. The vendor operates across multiple contract vehicles including GSA's Multiple Award Schedule, the Fine Arts Services 2019 Indefinite Delivery Contract, and a newly awarded $2.3 million single-award IDIQ under total small business set-aside running through May 2031. ELY Inc. competes predominantly through full-and-open procurements with no consistent set-aside posture across its prime footprint, though the current GSA IDIQ is reserved for small business.
The vendor's customer concentration is heavily weighted to cultural and administrative agencies. The Smithsonian Institution leads by award count (37 awards, $1.7 million combined potential value), followed by GSA Public Buildings Service divisions (29 awards combined across two organizational lines, $4.7 million), with the Department of Justice Drug Enforcement Administration, the Department of the Interior National Park Service, and the National Archives and Records Administration comprising the remainder of the top five. The top five customers account for 49% of recent awards and 70% of combined potential value—a concentration signal that reflects ELY Inc.'s specialization in the federal cultural-asset preservation niche rather than broad-market federal IT or defense exposure.
ELY Inc. holds active positions on five named parent vehicles: GSA's Multiple Award Schedule (15 task orders, $921 thousand combined potential value), the Fine Arts Services 2019 IDIQ (5 task orders, $562 thousand), and three Basic Ordering Agreements and related BOA vehicles generating the bulk of transactional volume. Representative recent work includes a $646 thousand Smithsonian definitive contract for deinstallation services for the "Girl Trouble" and "Girl Hood" exhibitions (July 2022), a $204 thousand GSA delivery order for cyclic maintenance of 37 sculptures and architectural artworks in the National Capital Region (September 2022), a $147 thousand Coast Guard purchase order for art handling services under the Coast Guard Art Program (May 2024), and a $78 thousand delivery order for transportation and installation at the Ronald Reagan Federal Building (January 2025). The newly awarded single-award IDIQ (May 2026, $2.3 million ceiling) consolidates ELY Inc.'s GSA fine arts capacity under total small business set-aside terms, with three delivery orders already issued totaling $58 thousand for exhibit preparation, sculpture conservation, and artwork relocation across Washington, DC and the Southeast.
Activity has remained modest and episodic—seven awards in 2026, one in 2025, four in 2024, reflecting the project-based, low-dollar nature of federal art services procurement. Seven awards (combined potential value $419 thousand) face ultimate completion inside the next twenty-four months, creating recompete exposure concentrated in GSA and Smithsonian work. ELY Inc. operates exclusively as a prime contractor with no subcontract footprint in the source data. The vendor's NAICS and PSC concentration reflects its niche positioning: Lessors of Nonresidential Buildings (36 awards), Specialized Freight Trucking Local (31 awards), Museums (29 awards), and Packing and Crating (16 awards) dominate the category distribution, with PSC codes weighted toward warehousing, storage, and professional support services. The vendor's $12.3 million combined potential value across 159 awards since 2001, with $5.9 million obligated (48%), positions ELY Inc. as a long-standing but small-scale provider to the federal cultural sector with limited growth trajectory and no visible defense or civilian IT footprint.
