F-Concepts, Inc.

F-Concepts, Inc., doing business as F-Concepts Inc., is an Economically Disadvantaged Women-Owned Small Business (EDWOSB) and Women-Owned Small Business (WOSB) certified prime contractor based in Vienna, Virginia, that delivers landscaping and grounds maintenance, foreign language instruction and training, facilities management and custodial support, IT infrastructure and cabling services, and transcription and translation services to federal agencies across 53 customer organizations. The vendor is 8(a) Program Participant certified and competes predominantly under 8(a) set-aside and WOSB set-aside vehicles, though a material portion of its prime award footprint also comes from full-and-open and total-small-business competitions. As a Subchapter S corporation and minority-owned (Asian-Pacific American) business, F-Concepts operates exclusively as a prime contractor—100% of its 192 federal awards in the source data are prime awards with zero sub-award exposure.

Customer concentration is moderate but skewed toward specialized audiences. The top five funding agencies by award count (National Archives and Records Administration, Naval Network Warfare Command, Army Headquarters, Army Installation Management Command Northeast Region, and the Bureau of Alcohol Tobacco Firearms and Explosives) account for 55% of recent award volume, yet the top-five customers by potential value (Naval Network Warfare Command, Army Headquarters, Treasury Bureau of the Fiscal Service, Smithsonian Institution, and HUD) represent only approximately 5% of F-Concepts' combined potential value of $1.12 billion. This divergence reflects a broad portfolio of smaller-dollar orders spread across civilian and defense agencies rather than deep anchor relationships with high-value primes. The vendor's most concentrated customer relationships are NARA (44 awards, $1.2 million potential value) and Naval Network Warfare Command (23 awards, $14.6 million), signaling sustained demand for cabling and IT infrastructure work and foreign language instruction respectively.

F-Concepts holds four primary indefinite-delivery vehicles: a $7.99 million competitive 8(a) single-award landscaping, gardening, and equipment IDIQ with Army Headquarters (June 14, 2022–June 22, 2027, generating 20 task orders totaling $6.3 million in potential value); a $3.51 million single-award Blanket Purchase Agreement with Naval Network Warfare Command for foreign language instruction and training in support of the Center for Information Warfare Training (May 15, 2025–May 14, 2030); a $1.5 million single-award BPA with the Bureau of Administration for newspapers, periodicals, and magazines (January 1, 2022–December 31, 2026, generating five task orders totaling approximately $1.3 million); and a $140.8 thousand 8(a) sole-source IDIQ with NARA for cabling services (September 10, 2022–September 15, 2026). The vendor also executes task orders against the GSA Multiple Award Schedule (11 task orders, $640 thousand potential value) and holds positions on Army IDIQ W91QV122D0001 and other Army and Navy IDIQs, with 25 task orders totaling $141 thousand against NARA IDIQ 88310319D00003 for IT infrastructure work at Archives I and II facilities.

Capability footprint spans four discrete domains. Landscaping and grounds maintenance—the largest NAICS concentration (22 awards)—includes seasonal spring and fall plant procurement, grounds beautification, and special events materials delivery at Fort Myer, Arlington National Cemetery, and Army installations, typically firm fixed-price delivery orders under the $1.4–$12 million IDIQ. Foreign language instruction and training (22 awards, second-largest NAICS concentration) delivers Japanese, Chinese, Tagalog, and Korean language training to the Navy's Center for Information Warfare Training in Pensacola, Florida, and overseas locations; representative delivery orders valued $64 thousand to $704 thousand. Facilities management and custodial support includes a $3.84 million competitive 8(a) award from the Smithsonian Institution for full-operation custodial services at the Udvar-Hazy Center (June 22, 2022–June 30, 2026), laundry and dry cleaning ($310 thousand over five years at Fort Myer), mess attendant services ($334 thousand with Coast Guard), and a $3.59 million 8(a) sole-source facilities and warehouse logistics contract with Treasury Bureau of the Fiscal Service (March 8, 2023–September 7, 2026, which invoiced $558 thousand in FY2023 and $1 million in FY2024 under SCI reporting). IT infrastructure and cabling—the third-largest NAICS concentration (36 awards under Electrical Contractors)—comprises network cabling installations, NARANET fiber drops, cabling drops at Archives I and II, and intrusion detection systems (ICIDS and ICIDS-V) maintenance. Language services extend to transcription and translation: a $2.72 million 8(a) sole-source definitive contract with U.S. Citizenship and Immigration Services for audio and video transcription of investigative interviews (March 12, 2025–March 11, 2030) and a $4.42 million 8(a) sole-source contract with HUD for Limited English Proficiency (LEP) translation services (August 30, 2024–August 31, 2029).

Activity trajectory shows moderation after a peak: 22 awards in FY2022, 23 in FY2023, 20 in FY2024, 14 in FY2025, and 4 through mid-2026 year-to-date, indicating a decline or seasonal timing shift in award volume over the past two years. The recompete cliff in the next twenty-four months totals 13 awards with combined potential value of $7.6 million—representing material but manageable exposure to task order expirations. Notable recompete risks include the NARA IDIQ (expires September 15, 2026) and the Army Headquarters landscaping IDIQ (expires June 22, 2027, though option years extend the base contract).

Service Contract Inventory data, covering federal service contracts above $150,000, shows SCI-reportable invoiced revenue of $8.1 million across FY2022–FY2024 (FY2022: $2.5 million across 5.5 FTEs; FY2023: $2.7 million across 6.3 FTEs; FY2024: $2.9 million across 7.7 FTEs). Median government-paid rates on SCI-reportable contracts ran $88.71 per hour, with the 10th percentile at $49.24/hr and the 90th percentile at $243.20/hr, reflecting a mix of grounds maintenance and custodial labor at the lower end and project management and senior technical roles at the upper end. Across SCI-reportable prime contracts, subcontractors performed approximately 9% of total contractor hours, with three named subcontractors identified, indicating F-Concepts builds most delivery teams with internal staff. GSA Schedule labor rates span 15 categories ranging from $80.44/hr for Help Desk Specialists to $172.37/hr for Project Managers; no security-cleared positions are offered. The workforce in the SCI dataset remained relatively stable at 5.5 to 7.7 FTEs annually, consistent with a small-business operating model that scales delivery teams task-by-task rather than maintaining a large standing workforce.
