Job Options, Incorporated

Job Options, Incorporated, doing business as Job Options Inc., is a San Diego-based non-profit AbilityOne organization that provides laundry, custodial, janitorial, grounds maintenance, and healthcare environmental cleaning services to federal agencies as a prime contractor, competing predominantly in the open (non-set-aside) federal market.

Job Options operates as a mission-driven non-profit dedicated to creating employment opportunities for individuals with disabilities, veterans, and others facing employment barriers. The organization holds 907 prime federal contract awards spanning 29 customer agencies, with no subcontract footprint. Its portfolio is heavily concentrated in housekeeping and facility support services: the top five NAICS categories account for 785 of 908 total awards, with Industrial Launderers (368 awards) and Janitorial Services (236 awards) dominating the distribution. By PSC code, Housekeeping–Laundry/Drycleaning alone represents 538 awards, followed by Housekeeping–Custodial Janitorial (198 awards).

Customer concentration is pronounced and split between transaction volume and dollar magnitude. The Marine Corps leads by award count (275 awards, $109.1 million), followed by the Department of the Navy (129 awards, $219 million). However, by combined potential value, the Defense Health Agency dominates with 37 awards valued at $4.36 billion—more than 76% of Job Options' total $5.69 billion portfolio. The Department of the Navy Naval Facilities Engineering Command accounts for $561 million across 23 awards; the Defense Commissary Agency, $198.4 million across 38 awards; and the Department of the Army Medical Command, $165 million across 46 awards. These five customers represent 95% of all combined potential value.

Job Options holds eight named Indefinite Delivery Contracts. The largest by ceiling is a $4.1 billion single-award IDC with the Defense Health Agency for AbilityOne healthcare environmental cleaning services through May 31, 2031, with place of performance including Naval Medical Center San Diego and Fort Moore, Georgia. A $9.268 million single-award IDC with the U.S. Marine Corps (effective through September 30, 2026) covers regional laundry and dry-cleaning services at Camp Pendleton North, Marine Corps Recruit Depot San Diego, and Twentynine Palms. A $28.96 million contract with GSA Region 9 covers janitorial, custodial, grounds, and trash services at the San Ysidro Land Port of Entry through June 30, 2027. Additional IDCs with the Defense Health Agency support healthcare environmental cleaning at Fort Eustis, Virginia ($5.09 million through August 31, 2029) and Fort Irwin, Georgia ($7.1 million through August 30, 2026). The Army Sustainment Command holds a $779 thousand IDC for laundry services at Fort Irwin through May 5, 2028, and Naval Facilities Engineering Command maintains a $3.93 million contract for custodial services at Naval Weapons Station Seal Beach through June 30, 2027.

Recent activity shows declining award frequency: the vendor received 32 awards in 2022, 40 in 2023, 35 in 2024, but only 20 in 2025 and 13 through mid-2026. A recompete cliff is material: 33 awards carrying combined potential value of $90.8 million reach ultimate completion within the next twenty-four months.

On Service Contract Inventory records covering FY2022 through FY2024, Job Options reported $12.1 million in invoiced federal service revenue across 11 prime contracts (0 subcontractor engagement). The workforce remained stable: 43.8 FTEs in FY2022, 41.3 in FY2023, and 43.1 in FY2024. Government-paid hourly rates ranged from $39.81 per hour at the tenth percentile to $60.06 per hour at the ninetieth, with a median of $53.26 per hour. SCI invoicing represents less than 1% of the vendor's total combined potential value, indicating that the largest contracts—particularly the multi-billion-dollar DHA vehicle and major Defense Commissary Agency and Naval Facilities Engineering Command IDCs—either exceed the SCI reporting threshold or carry fixed-price rather than cost-reimbursable or T&M structures.

Job Options self-performs all reported labor without subcontractor engagement across SCI records. The organization competes in full-and-open federal procurements without reliance on socioeconomic set-asides, though its AbilityOne status underlies its mission positioning and several contract awards explicitly reference AbilityOne program authority. Geographic concentration centers on California military installations—Camp Pendleton, San Diego naval and Marine Corps facilities, Twentynine Palms, and Fort Irwin—with secondary presence in Georgia (Fort Moore) and Virginia (Fort Eustis) tied to major medical facility cleaning contracts.
