Hurtvet Subcontracting, Inc.

Hurtvet Subcontracting, Inc., doing business as Hurtvet Fire & Security, is a Service-Disabled Veteran-Owned Small Business (SDVOSB) prime contractor based in Heber City and Park City, Utah, providing fire protection systems inspection, testing, maintenance, and repair services to federal agencies. The vendor operates exclusively as a prime contractor (100% of recent awards); it competes predominantly under SDVOSB set-asides, with periodic full-and-open awards when facility requirements or customer preferences permit.

Hurtvet's capability portfolio is narrowly focused on fire safety infrastructure. The core offering spans fire alarm system installation, inspection, testing, maintenance, and repair; fire suppression and sprinkler system services; fire extinguisher maintenance and replacement; fire damper inspection and repair; backflow prevention device testing; and 24/7 fire alarm monitoring. Representative work includes a $3.2 million fire alarm and nurse call system services contract with VA VISN 16 in Biloxi, Mississippi (October 2024 through September 2029), a $4.25 million fire alarm and suppression systems contract with VA VISN 17 for the Central Texas VA Health Care System in Temple and Waco, Texas (April 2023 through March 2028), a $2.54 million fire alarm and sprinkler suppression contract with VA VISN 17 for the South Texas Veterans Health Care System (April 2022 through March 2027), and a $1.12 million fire alarm and sprinkler testing, maintenance, and repair purchase order with VA VISN 7 in Decatur, Georgia (June 2026 through June 2031). The vendor also delivers complementary facility services including security camera and access control system (PACS/CCTV) maintenance, nurse call system support, boiler maintenance, laundry equipment procurement and installation, and lockout/tagout program development—services that enable cross-selling within the VA ecosystem but remain secondary to fire protection.

Customer concentration is extreme and singular: the Department of Veterans Affairs accounts for the vast majority of awards and dollars. The top five VISN customers by award count—VISN 20 (42 awards, $13.8 million), VISN 16 (29 awards, $16.9 million), VISN 17 (21 awards, $15.4 million), VISN 7 (15 awards, $21.2 million), and VISN 19 (13 awards, $14.4 million)—represent 44% of all awards and cover 120 of the 272 total prime contracts in the portfolio. By potential value, the same five VISNs anchor $83.1 million of the $132.4 million combined ceiling, or 62% of total potential value. The vendor has worked with 60 distinct federal agencies across the source data window, but the VA represents roughly 80–85% of the award count and a similar or higher share of dollar value. Secondary customers include the Department of Defense (Air Force Space Command, Joint Munitions Command, Naval Special Warfare Command, Naval Sea Systems Command), the National Park Service, the Federal Aviation Administration, the Bureau of Reclamation, the National Oceanic and Atmospheric Administration, and the U.S. Forest Service—each representing single-digit award counts and sub-$2 million ceilings per vehicle. The concentration risk is acute: recompete cliff exposure in the next twenty-four months is $18 million across 21 awards, and the vendor's largest single customer (VISN 16, 29 awards) and largest single-contract ceiling ($3.2 million with VISN 16) are tightly coupled.

Parent vehicle holdings are sparse. The vendor holds a Naval Sea Systems Command Basic Ordering Agreement for fire alarm and protection services (FY2024–FY2029, no ceiling specified) and a single-award indefinite delivery contract with VA VISN 23 for fire damper inspection and repair services ($180 thousand, September 2025 through September 2030). A Defense agency Blanket Purchase Agreement for fire extinguisher services carries a $250 thousand ceiling through December 31, 2031. These vehicles underpin minimal task-order volume relative to the vendor's prime award count; most work flows through individual purchase orders rather than standing IDIQs or BPAs, indicating limited leverage of recurring vehicle positions.

Activity has grown from 23 awards in 2022 to 28–29 annually in 2024–2025, with a modest pullback to 10 awards through mid-2026 (reflecting a partial-year snapshot). The recompete cliff of $18 million in the next twenty-four months represents material exposure—roughly 14% of the combined ceiling—concentrated in VISN contracts awarded in 2023–2024 that are now entering renewal cycles.

SCI-reported invoicing on federal service contracts above the $150 thousand threshold totaled $18.9 million across FY2022–FY2024, with FY2024 at $7.3 million across 2.6 FTEs (a downward FTE trajectory from 3.7 FTEs in FY2022), signaling either efficiency gains or contract consolidation. Government-paid median hourly rates on SCI-reportable work cluster around $384/hr, with a 10th percentile floor of $175/hr and a 90th percentile ceiling near $1,325/hr (likely reflecting specialized technical labor on complex PACS or fire panel work). The vendor reported an average 41% sub-hours share across prime contracts in SCI, with 43 named subcontractors appearing in the dataset, indicating reliance on subcontractors for specialized skills (EST system programming, Honeywell Notifier certification, CCURE software expertise) while retaining inspection and field supervision in-house.

Teaming pattern: Hurtvet operates as a pure prime, carrying no subcontract footprint as either prime or sub in the source data. It sources specialized labor (fire alarm technicians, PACS programmers, boiler engineers) through named subcontractors on individual task orders rather than maintaining permanent sub relationships. No prime contractor relationship or GSA Schedule seat is documented; the vendor competes exclusively through direct federal solicitation.

Set-aside posture is heavily SDVOSB-skewed. Of awards with named set-asides, SDVOSB accounts for the majority; Total Small Business set-asides (at National Park Service and Department of Defense), Veteran-Owned Small Business (VOSB), and full-and-open compete rounds make up the remainder. The vendor's SDVOSB certification, which expires in January 2027 per one award summary, is the cornerstone of its competitive positioning—most VA VISN awards are explicitly SDVOSB set-asides, and the vendor's lack of sub-award history and narrow technical specialization leave it with minimal footing in full-and-open federal markets.
