Hillcrest Granite Co

Hillcrest Granite Co, a for-profit granite and stone products manufacturer headquartered in Elberton, Georgia, supplies blank granite and marble memorial products — headstones, niche covers, and wall markers — to the Department of Veterans Affairs National Cemetery Administration as a prime contractor exclusively under total small business set-asides. The company operates 100% as a prime across its federal footprint with no subcontract exposure.

Hillcrest Granite's customer concentration is absolute: the VA National Cemetery Administration accounts for 195 of 202 awards in the sourced portfolio (195 awards, $73.5 million combined potential value, roughly 93% of total dollars), with seven additional awards to the broader Department of Veterans Affairs totaling $392 thousand. No other federal agencies appear in the award record. The company competes predominantly under total small business set-asides; recent competitive activity (2024–2026) reflects a shift toward full-and-open delivery orders alongside continuing set-aside work, but the VA National Cemetery Administration remains the sole customer.

Hillcrest Granite holds five active single-award indefinite delivery contracts with the National Cemetery Administration, all set-aside for total small business and all closing out between now and September 2026. The largest ceiling is $6,047,114 (W1 granite blanks, awarded April 1, 2026, running through March 31, 2027); others carry ceilings of $5,678,225 (Vermont granite wall markers and niche covers, October 2, 2024–September 30, 2026), $3,539,475 (Vermont granite and Georgia granite niche covers and wall markers, October 1, 2024–September 30, 2026), $2,369,325 (Alabama marble niche covers and wall markers, October 3, 2024–September 30, 2026), and $1,765,000 (Level 1 blank granite markers, October 1, 2024–September 30, 2026). These five IDICs host the preponderance of recent task-order activity; the top five parent vehicles span 93 task orders across delivery orders issued between October 2024 and April 2026. Representative delivery orders include a $1,057,920 firm fixed-price order for W1 granite blanks (April 1, 2026, completion March 31, 2027), a $1,400,500 order for waller marker and niche cover blanks from Vermont granite quarries (October 14, 2025, completion September 30, 2026), and a $1,345,965 order (plus a $485,430 modification) for Alabama marble memorial markers and niche covers (October 1, 2025, completion September 30, 2026).

Activity has remained relatively flat year over year across the last five years — ranging from two awards in 2026 (through April) to nine in both 2022 and 2024. Notably, seven awards with combined potential value of $6.2 million carry ultimate completion dates within the next twenty-four months, presenting significant recompete exposure for the vendor and recompete opportunity for competitors. The company manufactures and ships memorial products nationwide from Elberton, Georgia, with distribution reaching remote locations including Hawaii and Saipan. The VA SAM.gov record reflects Hillcrest Granite's registration since October 2004 and its continuous role as the National Cemetery Administration's primary supplier of blank memorial products under firm fixed-price delivery orders.
