About Independent Suppliers Group Inc.

Independent Suppliers Group Inc., doing business as Is.group, operates as a for-profit member-owned cooperative headquartered in Rosemont, Illinois that supplies office products, furniture, cleaning supplies, and administrative materials to federal agencies exclusively as a prime contractor through the GSA Multiple Award Schedule. The vendor holds no SBA set-aside designations and competes full-and-open; it maintains a subsidiary, Epic Business Essentials, LLC, which is self-certified as a small disadvantaged business and HUBZone joint venture.

Is.group's footprint is characterized by high transaction volume and low order value. The vendor holds a GSA Federal Supply Schedule contract (awarded July 22, 2022, $30 million ceiling through July 21, 2027) under Special Item Number 339940 that authorizes office supplies, office furniture, cleaning supplies and sanitizers, and miscellaneous administrative materials, with individual delivery orders capped at $150,000 and standard delivery within approximately four days to the contiguous United States. The 2,951 prime awards in the source span 246 distinct customer agencies and carry a combined potential value of $106.1 million, with $25 million obligated (24% of potential value). Ordering activity is concentrated in sub-$15,000 delivery orders: recent named examples include a $13,999.38 Defense Counterintelligence and Security Agency delivery order for DoD Public Affairs Visual Information equipment at Quantico, Virginia (February 2026), a $3,128.83 award for pantry appliances at DCSA's Stafford, Virginia location (February 2026), a $12,206.85 Air Combat Command delivery order for office furniture at Abilene, Texas (July 2022), and a $10,260 U.S. Attorney's Office award for office supplies (February 2025).

Customer concentration is diffuse across the federal footprint. The top five customer agencies by award count account for only 12% of all awards: Department of Homeland Security US Citizen and Immigration Services (120 awards, $4.8 million), DHS Chief Procurement Officer (69 awards, $1.9 million), Department of the Army (68 awards, $157 thousand), Department of the Navy Bureau of Medicine and Surgery (48 awards, $91 thousand), and Department of Veterans Affairs Veterans Health Administration Veterans Integrated Service Network 2 (35 awards, $527 thousand). The top five by potential value show similar spread at 8% combined coverage, with DHS USCIS and DHS CPO anchoring the list at $4.8 million and $1.9 million respectively. The vendor works across the Department of Justice, Department of the Interior National Park Service, Missile Defense Agency, Defense Information Systems Agency, and Defense Commissary Agency.

Is.group places work almost exclusively through the GSA Multiple Award Schedule vehicle, which carries 2,731 task orders valued at $31.7 million combined potential value. A secondary vehicle, Office Products, Supplies Services and Technology, accounts for 234 task orders at $6 million. The vendor's award portfolio skews heavily toward commoditized administrative supplies: the top NAICS category by far is Vitreous China Plumbing Fixture and China and Earthenware Bathroom Accessories Manufacturing (2,700 awards), followed by Office Furniture except Wood Manufacturing (154 awards) and Office Supplies and Stationery Stores (27 awards). The top PSC categories reflect this commodity posture: Office Supplies (1,166 awards), Information Technology Supplies (297 awards), Toiletry Paper Products (215 awards), Office Furniture (207 awards), and Stationery and Record Forms (202 awards).

Activity has declined sharply. The vendor placed 48 awards in 2021, 25 in 2022, then dropped to 1 award in 2023 before recovering modestly to 3 awards in 2025 and 3 in 2026 year-to-date. Is.group subcontracts neither as a sub nor as a prime with notable subs; all awards are direct supplies with no subcontractor involvement noted in the source. The vendor's federal contracting relationship spans since September 2002, positioning it as an established GSA schedule commodity supplier rather than a growth-trajectory or complex-service vendor.
