About the company
IFE Group, operating through its IFE Marketing division as a for-profit Subchapter S Corporation, supplies commercial food service equipment—steam kettles, convection ovens, tilting skillets, combination ovens, dishwashers, refrigeration units, fryers, and related appliances—to federal agencies as a prime contractor exclusively through the GSA Multiple Award Schedule (MAS). The vendor holds no SBA set-aside certifications and competes full-and-open across its entire prime footprint, with substantial recent task order volume reflecting established federal agency demand for replacement and new installation equipment.
IFE Marketing operates as a wholly owned division of Johnson-Lancaster And Associates, Inc., a parent Subchapter S Corporation based in Clearwater, Florida. As a small business located in Encinitas, California, IFE Marketing anchors its federal business to a single parent contract vehicle: a $12 million GSA Federal Supply Schedule (MAS) contract awarded April 17, 2023, extending through April 16, 2028, covering six special item numbers spanning food service equipment, commercial refrigeration, flight-type and conveyor dishwashing systems, and related sanitation equipment. The vendor performs substantially all work directly from its Encinitas facility or at customer installation sites, with no named major subcontractors and typical 30-day delivery timelines.
Customer concentration is broad but concentrated among military and federal institutional buyers. The top five agencies by award count—Navy Installations Command (101 awards, $2.5 million), Defense Commissary Agency (97 awards, $7.9 million), Defense Logistics Agency Troop Support Subsistence (84 awards, $1.1 million), Air Force (78 awards, $2 million), and Army (77 awards, $1.8 million)—represent 18 percent of the total award footprint and anchor the defense and military institutional dining-facility segment. By potential value, GSA Federal Acquisition Service leads at 49 awards ($14.7 million), followed by Defense Commissary Agency, Army Sustainment Command (60 awards, $6.7 million), Air Education and Training Command (58 awards, $2.8 million), and Marine Corps (72 awards, $2.8 million), collectively representing 29 percent of combined potential value. The portfolio reveals deep penetration of federal Bureau of Prisons facilities, Veterans Affairs medical centers, and military installations nationwide.
IFE Marketing has issued 1,887 task orders under its GSA MAS contract, generating $74.3 million in combined potential value across the source data window. Recent representative prime work includes a $4.8 million Department of Interior delivery order (September 2026) for 245 commercial-grade ovens to 53 Bureau of Prisons institutions completing February 1, 2028; a $9 million Department of Veterans Affairs order (May 2026) for 73 commercial food service dishwashers to 47 facilities, set aside for total small business, extending through May 21, 2027; a $188.7 million Federal Correctional Institution Oxford flight-type dishwasher contract (July 2025, set-aside small business, completion December 8, 2025); a $183.6 million Federal Correctional Institution Herlong dish machine replacement (October 2024, small business set-aside, completion December 31, 2024); and a $540.7 million Army Sustainment Command equipment replacement order (September 2023, completion October 31, 2023). Additional task orders span the Navy (delivering ice water dispensers, galley equipment, warming equipment), Coast Guard (dishwashers, galley items, refrigeration units, fryers), Air Force (combination ovens, ranges, steamers, dishwashers, DFAC equipment), and civilian agencies including NOAA and the Bureau of Reclamation. Work is set-aside or full-and-open with no consistent pattern favoring small business set-asides in the prime portfolio; approximately 40 to 50 percent of recent orders carry total small business set-aside designation, with the remainder unrestricted competitive awards.
Activity has declined year over year—82 awards in 2022 to 15 awards through mid-2026—reflecting either a narrowing customer base, completion of major blanket orders, or shift in procurement timing. Three awards (combined potential value $13.8 million) face ultimate completion within the next twenty-four months, representing moderate recompete exposure concentrated in contract vehicle renewal risk on the underlying $12 million GSA MAS contract. The top NAICS codes in the source data reflect miscellaneous chemical product manufacturing (1,694 awards) and food product machinery manufacturing (298 awards), with PSC concentration in kitchen equipment and appliances (988 awards) and food cooking, baking, and serving equipment (689 awards), confirming the vendor's narrow, vertical specialization in food service equipment procurement and delivery.
