Jake Inc.

Jake Inc., a Subchapter S corporation based in Excelsior Springs, Missouri, performs precision equipment repair and refurbishment services for the National Oceanic and Atmospheric Administration as a 100% small-business set-aside prime contractor. The vendor specializes in repair and reconditioning of meteorological instruments, primarily NWS C450-2 thermometers with shelter assemblies, under NAICS 811210 (Electronic and Precision Equipment Repair and Maintenance).

Jake Inc.'s federal footprint is entirely concentrated with a single customer: NOAA's National Weather Service accounts for all 33 awards and the full $441 thousand in combined potential value across the vendor's tracked award history. The vendor competes exclusively under total small business set-asides; no full-and-open or other set-aside category appears in the source. Recent work includes a $58,000 purchase order awarded July 29, 2026, to recondition 232 thermometers with shelter assemblies (ASN C450-2) to like-new condition with a one-year warranty and ultimate completion of July 30, 2027; a $50,000 firm-fixed-price purchase order from September 23, 2025, for reconditioning 250 similar thermometer units in support of the National Weather Service's Weather Forecast Offices and Cooperative Observer Program; and a $40,000 purchase order from July 29, 2024, covering repair and reconditioning of 200 thermometers for the same program. Each contract requires disassembly, inspection, parts replacement, cleaning and repainting with specified Krylon products, thermistor testing and replacement, and temperature calibration to within 0.5 degrees Fahrenheit. The vendor furnishes all labor and materials, with the government providing thermistors and selected shelter components upon request.

Activity has declined sharply: the vendor averaged three awards annually in 2022 but has held roughly one award per year since 2023. Only one award (the July 2026 purchase order valued at $58,000) reaches ultimate completion within the next twenty-four months, creating minimal near-term recompete exposure. All work is performed at Jake Inc.'s facility in Excelsior Springs, Missouri, under simplified acquisition procedures (FAR Parts 12 and 13). The vendor holds no parent contract vehicles, IDVs, GWACs, or BPAs; each award is an independent purchase order. Jake Inc. operates exclusively as a prime contractor with no subcontract engagement in the source data.
