Ground Level Services LLC

Ground Level Services LLC, a Minden, Louisiana-based small business providing HVAC installation, replacement, and maintenance services, operates as a prime contractor across a 100% federal prime footprint with no SBA certifications beyond its small business designation. The vendor competes predominantly under total small business set-asides, which account for the majority of recent awards. Ground Level Services is an undesignated limited liability company structured as a for-profit organization.

The vendor's capability portfolio centers on heating, ventilation, and air-conditioning systems and emergency power generator replacement at federal facilities. Recent representative work includes fourteen purchase orders awarded by the National Oceanic and Atmospheric Administration on September 23, 2026, for Kohler 277/480-volt 3-phase generator installations and automatic transfer switch replacements across National Weather Service Southern Region Weather Forecast Offices in Georgia, Puerto Rico, Texas, Florida, Louisiana, and Alabama, with individual ceiling values ranging from $328,179 to $463,735 under total small business set-asides; a $2.9 million delivery order from NOAA on September 14, 2026, for HVAC installation work at Norman, Oklahoma under a newly awarded single-award indefinite delivery contract ceiling of $16.7 million (TPS battery installation IDIQ running through September 13, 2031); and a $421,299 firm fixed-price definitive contract from the Federal Aviation Administration's Southern Region on September 15, 2026, for HVAC replacement (two 15-ton York Johnson Controls units with R-454b refrigerant, ductwork, controls, LED lighting, and arc flash study) at the Salt Lake City ARSR facility in Morgan, Utah.

Customer concentration is extreme and creates single-agency dependency. The National Oceanic and Atmospheric Administration accounts for 36 of 46 awards (78% of the portfolio by count) and $37.2 million of the $38.8 million combined potential value (96% of dollars), driven largely by a September 2026 procurement wave of 14 site-specific generator replacement purchase orders across the Southern Region and a newly awarded five-year IDIQ. The Federal Aviation Administration (Franchise Acquisition Services, Headquarters, and Southern Region offices) places ten additional awards totaling $1.1 million. The U.S. Forest Service and other civilian agencies account for residual volume. This concentration creates acute recompete and revenue-cliff risk: nineteen awards with ultimate completion dates in the next twenty-four months carry combined potential value of $10.5 million, representing 27% of the total portfolio. The September 2026 generator-replacement awards alone (14 purchase orders, $5.6 million combined ceiling) all complete by March 18, 2028.

Ground Level Services operates across three named NOAA indefinite delivery vehicles. The largest is a single-award IDIQ awarded September 14, 2026 (TPS Battery Installation), ceiling $16.7 million, running through September 13, 2031, with one task order issued to date ($2.9 million). A second single-award NOAA HVAC IDIQ, awarded September 17, 2025, carries a $4.9 million ceiling through September 16, 2030, with task orders issued for HVAC replacement at National Weather Service Central Region facilities. A third vehicle, awarded December 22, 2021, completed October 15, 2022, supported Liebert replacement work. Together, these IDIQs represent the framework for task-order flow; the September 2026 generator purchase orders, by contrast, are direct awards not nested under an IDV.

Activity has accelerated sharply in 2026. Awards per year: 3 (2022), 10 (2023), 2 (2024), 2 (2025), 22 (2026). The 2026 spike reflects the fourteen generator purchase orders awarded in September 2026 plus the TPS battery installation IDIQ. Prior to 2026, the vendor's footprint was dominated by HVAC delivery orders valued between $19,500 and $134,927, mostly from NOAA's National Weather Service, and scattered FAA and Forest Service HVAC and facility maintenance work. Combined dollars obligated across the portfolio total $12.2 million (31% of the $38.8 million combined potential value), indicating that the bulk of the September 2026 awards remain in performance or execution phases.

The vendor operates without subcontractors; all federal work is performed in-house. Ground Level Services does not sit on government-wide acquisition contracts, BPAs, or multi-agency IDIQs. Its contract footprint is confined to direct awards and task orders issued under single-award indefinite delivery vehicles held with NOAA and individual contracts with the FAA and Forest Service.

Categorically, Ground Level Services' work splits between NAICS 238220 (Plumbing, Heating, and Air-Conditioning Contractors; 23 awards) and NAICS 335999 (All Other Miscellaneous Electrical Equipment and Component Manufacturing; 16 awards, concentrated in the September 2026 generator installations). PSC coding reflects the same split: fourteen awards carry PSC code for Generators and Generator Sets (Electrical), nine for HVAC maintenance and repair, six for plumbing and heating equipment maintenance, and four for HVAC installation. Prevailing wage and Davis-Bacon compliance apply to most FAA and Forest Service work; performance and payment bonds are standard across all contracts above approximately $380,000.
