About the company

J.F. Ahern Co., a for-profit Subchapter S corporation based in Fond du Lac, Wisconsin, delivers emergency mechanical repair, fire protection, HVAC, and facilities maintenance services to federal agencies as a prime contractor operating in full-and-open competitions with no set-asides. The vendor competes exclusively on small-dollar purchase orders and definitive contracts, with a combined potential value of $1.5 million across forty-five prime awards since 2002.

The vendor's customer base is diffuse across twelve distinct federal agencies, with the top five accounting for 47% of recent award count but 94% of combined potential value. The Department of the Air Force Air National Guard leads by award count with nine awards totaling $229 thousand, while the General Services Administration's Federal Acquisition Service anchors the potential-value ranking with a single $1 million award—a significant outlier relative to Ahern's typical sub-$50 thousand purchase-order footprint. The Department of Veterans Affairs Veterans Health Administration Veterans Integrated Service Network 23 holds five awards worth $88 thousand combined, primarily for emergency fire sprinkler and fire pump repairs at VA facilities in Iowa and Michigan. The Department of Homeland Security US Coast Guard, the Department of Agriculture Forest Service Forest Products Laboratory, and the Department of Veterans Affairs Veterans Integrated Service Network 12 round out the active set with smaller volumes. Recent representative work includes a $42,397 definitive contract from VISN 23 in March 2024 for emergency ambulance bay garage door repair in Des Moines, a $16,800 purchase order from the Department of Agriculture's Agricultural Research Service in July 2026 for commercial pump replacement at the Cereal Crops Research Unit in Madison, Wisconsin, and a $15,890 purchase order from the VA in January 2025 for emergency fire pump repair at the Iron Mountain, Michigan facility.

Ahern's award portfolio clusters heavily into fire protection and HVAC work: the top five PSC categories account for fire control equipment maintenance and repair (fourteen awards), fire fighting and rescue equipment maintenance (seven awards), miscellaneous fire control equipment (four awards), plumbing and heating equipment maintenance (three awards), and fire fighting equipment (two awards). Primary NAICS coding reflects this specialization—Plumbing, Heating, and Air-Conditioning Contractors (twelve awards) and Facilities Support Services (six awards) dominate the category concentration. Activity has remained sparse and episodic—one award per year or fewer over the past five years, with minimal obligated dollars relative to potential value ($595 thousand obligated against $1.5 million potential). One award (the $17 thousand Agriculture Research Service contract) reaches completion inside the next twenty-four months. The Service Contract Inventory dataset carries one record for Ahern as a named subcontractor in FY2025, indicating minimal SCI-reportable service-contract activity above the $150,000 reporting threshold. The vendor operates solely as a prime on its federal footprint with no sub-award activity in the source data.
