Ground Level Services LLC

Ground Level Services LLC, a small business HVAC contractor based in Minden, Louisiana, operates exclusively as a prime contractor delivering heating, ventilation, and air-conditioning replacement, installation, and maintenance services to federal civilian agencies under total small business set-asides and full-and-open competition. The vendor competes as an undesignated small business across its federal footprint — no 8(a), HUBZone, SDVOSB, or other SBA certifications appear in recent awards — and specializes in HVAC equipment replacement and facility maintenance work classified primarily under NAICS 238220 (Plumbing, Heating, and Air-Conditioning Contractors).

Customer concentration is pronounced and narrowly civilian. NOAA accounts for 18 of 25 recent awards (96% coverage of award count) and $10.7 million of the $11.4 million combined potential value — substantially all program dollars flow through the National Weather Service for HVAC replacement at Regional Data Archive shelters, Weather Forecast Offices, and related data centers across the Central Region. The Federal Aviation Administration (split across Headquarters, Southwestern Region, and Franchise Acquisition Services offices) places 5 awards worth $505 thousand, and the U.S. Forest Service adds 1 award for $43 thousand. No other agencies appear. NOAA's dominance tracks identically across both award-count and dollar rankings.

Ground Level Services holds a single-award indefinite delivery contract with NOAA (awarded September 17, 2025, ceiling $4.88 million, completion September 16, 2030) that frames the HVAC work supporting the National Weather Service Central Region. Under this IDV, the vendor has placed 10 task orders worth $648 thousand in combined potential value; a second NOAA IDV carries 1 task order for $72 thousand. Representative recent work includes a $71.8 thousand delivery order from NOAA for replacement of wall-hung air conditioning units on RDA shelters and Weather Forecast Offices in Weatherby Lake, Missouri (September 2025, currently closing out), a $166.5 thousand definitive contract from the FAA Southwestern Region to replace two 20-ton air conditioning units at the Asheville ASR facility in Fletcher, North Carolina (awarded September 2024), and a $240 thousand FAA Headquarters contract for HVAC system replacement at the Erie, Pennsylvania Airport Surveillance Radar facility (awarded January 2024).

Activity contracted sharply after 2023 — ten awards in 2023 fell to two in 2024, two in 2025, and one award in early 2026 (a $10 thousand facility maintenance purchase order from the FAA Franchise Acquisition Services for resealing services on a router shelter in Creole, Louisiana). Only one award reaches ultimate completion within the next twenty-four months, presenting minimal recompete exposure in the near term. The vendor operates without subcontractors; all 25 awards are prime contracts. PSC concentration tracks the NAICS: nine awards fall under maintenance and repair of refrigeration and air-conditioning equipment, five under maintenance of plumbing and heating equipment, and three under installation of air-conditioning equipment.
