About Homestead Independence, Inc.

Homestead Independence, Inc., doing business as Access Elevator Inc., is a self-certified small disadvantaged business that manufactures and installs vertical mobility equipment—vertical platform lifts, stairlifts, stairglides, ramps, and ceiling lifts—for the Department of Veterans Affairs as a prime contractor on direct purchase orders. The vendor operates exclusively as a prime on firm fixed-price purchase orders ranging from approximately $10,570 to $45,791, with no subcontract footprint, and competes full-and-open (no set-asides) despite small disadvantaged business certification.

Homestead Independence is based in Cudahy, Wisconsin, and operates under NAICS 339113 (Surgical Appliance and Supplies Manufacturing) with secondary activity in medical equipment distribution and building equipment installation. Over the past five years—four awards in 2022, eleven in 2023, one hundred in 2024, sixty-eight in 2025, and three in 2026 through mid-April—the vendor has received 273 federal awards with combined potential value of $5.2 million, all obligated. The company serves four federal agencies but operates almost entirely within a single customer: the Department of Veterans Affairs' Veterans Integrated Service Network 12 (VISN 12) accounts for 269 awards ($5.1 million combined potential value), representing 98% of the award count and 98% of all dollars. The Department of the Army Installation Management Command Southwest Region, VISN 22, and VISN 6 represent one award each, together totaling less than 1% of activity.

Work has concentrated on Veterans Integrated Service Network 12 in Wisconsin, where Homestead Independence supplies accessibility equipment directly to veterans' homes and VA facilities to support disabled and elderly veterans. Recent representative prime awards include a $45,791 vertical platform lift installation contract (Nov 15, 2024), a $390,516 FY24 prosthetics and mobility equipment purchase order (Oct 1, 2023), a $32,664 vertical platform lift (Oct 29, 2025), a $28,998 platform lift for a veterans home (Nov 13, 2025), and a $25,309 vertical platform lift (Mar 23, 2026). The 2024 fiscal year saw a sharp acceleration in awards—from eleven in 2023 to one hundred in 2024—reflecting either a contracting model change at VISN 12 or a shift from bundled to individual equipment purchase orders. Activity has moderated in 2025 and 2026.

All awards are direct firm fixed-price purchase orders with no parent contract vehicles, GWACs, or BPAs identified in the source. Performance takes place exclusively in Cudahy, Wisconsin, with ultimate completion dates typically thirty to ninety days from award. The vendor carries no subcontractor relationships; all work is performed directly as prime. Customer concentration risk is extreme: loss of VISN 12 as a customer would eliminate 98% of the vendor's federal footprint. The award portfolio reflects a specialized, single-mission capability aligned narrowly with VA home accessibility initiatives in a single regional network, with no diversification across agencies, contract vehicles, or geographic markets.
