KC Elevator Co.,Ltd

KC Elevator Co.,Ltd, a South Korean for-profit corporation headquartered in Seoul, supplies elevator and escalator maintenance, repair, inspection, and parts supply services exclusively to U.S. military installations throughout South Korea as a prime contractor operating entirely full-and-open (no set-asides across 283 awards). The company holds a geographically focused, single-region federal footprint anchored to four U.S. military customer agencies with combined potential value of $20.8 million and invoiced obligation of $7.4 million since 2009.

Customer concentration is extreme and geographically driven by U.S. force posture in South Korea. The Department of the Air Force Pacific Air Forces leads by potential value ($9 million across 84 awards), followed closely by the Department of the Army Installation Management Command Pacific Region ($7 million across 98 awards). The Department of the Navy Installations Command (28 awards, $3.3 million), the Department of the Army Pacific Command (42 awards, $604 thousand), and the Department of the Army Installation Management Command Korean Region (18 awards, $525 thousand) account for the remaining five customer agencies tracked. These five agencies represent 95% of award count and 98% of combined potential value. Unlike typical federal contractor concentration metrics, both rankings are driven by the same geographic and operational reality — all work occurs in South Korea at Camp Casey, Camp Yongsan, Kunsan Air Base, Camp Carroll, Camp Henry, and Chinhae Naval Base, with no domestic U.S. operations or non-Korea-focused customer base.

KC Elevator operates under five parent indefinite delivery contracts with the Army, Air Force, and Navy. The largest is IDC W91QVN16D0003 (96 task orders, $1.8 million combined potential value), followed by W91QVN14D0056 (46 task orders, $850 thousand), W91QVN09D0032 (23 task orders, $1.3 million), BPA W91QVN12A0046 (23 task orders, $263 thousand), and IDC W91QVN21D0041 (18 task orders, $233 thousand). The most recent IDV on record is the Army Pacific Region's single-award indefinite delivery contract awarded November 29, 2022, with a ceiling of $1,145,181.66 and ultimate completion date of November 30, 2026, against which the company has issued twelve delivery orders to date totaling approximately $467 thousand.

Representative prime work includes monthly inspection and preventative maintenance orders from Pacific Air Forces ($177,140.90 ceiling through December 2025), safety inspection and deobligation at Camp Carroll for the DoD Pacific Region ($180,215.92 through November 2025), preventive maintenance and repair of elevators at U.S. Army Garrison Yongsan-Casey ($30,965.44 for the 4th option period through July 2026), elevator Portfolio Management Service Contract work for the State Department's Bureau of Overseas Building Operations ($16,435.87 through September 2026), and discrete repair task orders for programmable logic controller boards, inverter systems, and escalator components averaging in the low thousands per delivery order across all customer agencies.

Activity has remained flat, ranging from 11 to 13 awards per year across 2022–2025, with 3 awards recorded through March 2026 (insufficient data to characterize 2026 trajectory). The recompete cliff is minimal — only one award ($16 thousand potential value) faces ultimate completion in the next twenty-four months, indicating mature, long-duration IDVs with limited near-term recompete exposure. KC Elevator operates with no identified major subcontractors and holds no federal contract vehicles itself; all work is delivered as a prime under government-held IDVs and BPAs. The company has maintained continuous federal registration since October 2014 and specializes entirely in vertical transportation infrastructure support — monthly safety inspections, preventative maintenance, on-call repair services, parts replacement, and technical support for elevator systems at forward-deployed facilities. The work is performed exclusively in South Korea with no identified OCONUS, CONUS domestic, or worldwide scope.
