About the company

K J Cain Co Inc., doing business as General Contractor, is a Santa Maria, California-based service-disabled veteran-owned small business (SDVOSB) that delivers specialized facility maintenance and construction services to federal agencies exclusively as a prime contractor. The vendor holds SBA 8(a) Program Participant certification, is minority-owned and self-certified as a Small Disadvantaged Business, and qualifies for DOT Certified DBE designation; its SDVOSB and VOSB certifications expire August 26, 2026. K J Cain competes predominantly under set-asides, particularly SDVOSB sole-source and competitive designations across the Department of Veterans Affairs and other federal agencies.

The vendor's service portfolio centers on specialized HVAC maintenance, ventilation system testing and balancing, chiller plant preventive maintenance, and facility infrastructure support. Recent representative prime awards include a $838.4 thousand SDVOSB definitive contract from the Department of Veterans Affairs, Veterans Integrated Service Network 21, for ventilation verification testing and balancing at the San Francisco VA Health Care System (awarded February 1, 2026, through January 31, 2031); a $756.7 thousand purchase order from Veterans Integrated Service Network 7 for chiller plant preventive maintenance at the Charleston VA Medical Center running through March 31, 2030; and an $86.7 thousand firm fixed-price purchase order from the USDA Agricultural Research Service for York chiller repair at the Western Regional Research Center in Albany, California (awarded April 5, 2024). K J Cain operates across primary NAICS codes including Plumbing, Heating, and Air-Conditioning Contractors (238220) and secondary categories in flooring, painting, concrete, and stone product work.

Customer concentration is pronounced within the VA system. The top five customer agencies account for 78% of recent award volume: the Department of Veterans Affairs Veterans Health Administration Veterans Integrated Service Network 21 anchors both rankings with 8 awards and $12.9 million combined potential value; the National Park Service Pacific West Region holds 28 awards (often small-dollar delivery orders) worth $5 million combined; the VA National Cemetery Administration has 8 awards worth $3.1 million; the Army Installation Management Command Southwest Region holds 11 awards worth $1.6 million; and VA Veterans Integrated Service Network 7 has 2 awards worth $1.5 million. The VA's Veterans Health Administration and National Cemetery Administration together represent the largest dollar concentration among federal customers.

K J Cain operates entirely as a prime contractor across 77 total awards with no subcontractor engagement. The vendor places task orders under five indefinite delivery contracts, the largest being Indefinite Delivery Contract INP11PC81371 with 12 task orders and $46 thousand combined potential value. Activity in recent years has been modest — one award in 2022, two in 2024, three in 2025, and one in the first two months of 2026 — reflecting a steady but low-volume federal contracting footprint. SCI-reported invoicing across prime service contracts exceeded $2.2 million from FY2022 through FY2024, with FY2023 representing peak activity at $1.9 million across 3.0 FTEs. Government-paid hourly rates on SCI-reportable contracts ranged from roughly $107/hr (10th percentile) to $210/hr (median) to $465/hr (90th percentile). Only one award worth $76 thousand reaches ultimate completion within the next twenty-four months, presenting minimal recompete exposure in the near term.
