About Kipper Tool Company

Written by GovTribe AI ·

Kipper Tool Company, doing business as Kipper Management Inc., is a Women-Owned Small Business (WOSB) manufacturer and supplier of hand tools and equipment operating as a prime contractor to federal agencies, with 100% of its award footprint concentrated in prime work and a strategic focus on small business set-aside contracts. The company is headquartered in Gainesville, Georgia, and operates Klsi Corporation as a named subsidiary. Kipper competes predominantly under Total Small Business set-asides, with set-aside designations appearing across the vast majority of its General Services Administration purchase orders; full-and-open procurements represent a smaller share, primarily defense and specialized equipment orders.

Kipper's capability portfolio centers on manufacturing and supplying hand tools and equipment in multiple categories: edged and nonedged hand tools (wrenches, sockets, screwdrivers, saws, chisels, and crimping tools), power-driven hand tools, tool kits and assemblies (including specialized portable tool boxes and inserts conforming to Army specifications), bar and chain oil, mining tools, trash pumps, and consumable supplies ranging from marking chalk and rubber bands to gummed tape and office equipment. Representative prime contracts include a $504,261 five-year Indefinite Delivery Contract with the Defense Logistics Agency Aviation (awarded June 4, 2025, through June 3, 2030) for general utility tool kits under a Total Small Business set-aside; a $229,294 delivery order from TACOM Life Cycle Management Command (March 11, 2026) for tool load procurement; a $114,456 delivery order from the National Interagency Fire Center (May 29, 2026) for bar and chain oil delivered to eight locations under the GSA Multiple Award Schedule; and a $67,214 delivery order from the National Park Service Pacific West Region (April 16, 2026) for power tools, batteries, and accessories for Yosemite National Park under the GSA MAS. Kipper has also supplied screw thread insert kits, jetters with carts, miners axes, specialized electrical contact removers, and niche items such as gymnastic benches and Dyson cordless vacuums.

Customer concentration is dominated by two spending tiers. The GSA Federal Acquisition Service leads by award count at 133,994 awards ($1.28 billion potential value), reflecting Kipper's position as a high-volume supplier to civilian federal agencies through GSA's contracting vehicles. By dollar value, the Defense Logistics Agency Troop Support Construction and Equipment function anchors the portfolio at $2.64 billion in combined potential value across 707 awards—a concentration signal indicating that DLA Troop Support is the largest single customer by spend despite far fewer individual awards than GSA. The Department of the Army Materiel Command TACOM Life Cycle Management Command follows with 27,452 awards ($959.5 million), and the broader Department of the Army contributes 19,410 awards ($523.5 million). Together, these top five customers account for 81% of award count and 82% of potential value, underscoring concentration in defense and civilian supply-chain customers. The United States Marine Corps rounds out the top tier at 10,201 awards ($29.8 million).

Kipper places task orders across multiple parent vehicles anchored in GSA and DLA frameworks. The Hardware Superstore vehicle dominates with 192,102 task orders ($524.3 million), followed by the Multiple Award Schedule with 9,196 task orders ($74.5 million combined potential value). Three blanket purchase agreements registered under GSA schedule numbers (GS06FB2826, GS06FB8242, GS06F4KIPP) account for 6,491, 3,317, and 3,205 task orders respectively, indicating that Kipper maintains multiple standing BPA relationships with regional GSA offices and using agencies. The category concentration data reflects the vendor's core business: Hardware Stores (120,353 awards), Hand and Edge Tool Manufacturing (51,572 awards), and Saw Blade and Handtool Manufacturing (44,762 awards) dominate by NAICS count, while the primary PSC codes are Hand Tools, Nonedged, Nonpowered (197,394 awards), Hand Tools, Power Driven (17,111 awards), and Hand Tools, Edged, Nonpowered (10,033 awards).

Activity has remained robust: 8,981 awards in 2022, climbing to 18,623 in 2023 and moderating to 16,978 in 2024, with 4,133 awards in 2025 and 280 in the first seven months of 2026 (consistent with a sample-date snapshot mid-year). The combined potential value across all awards in the source dataset stands at $6.61 billion, with $1.8 billion obligated (27%). The recompete cliff shows 41 awards with ultimate completion dates in the next twenty-four months, carrying $3.2 million in combined potential value—a manageable recompete exposure relative to the vendor's overall footprint. Kipper maintains a single named sub-award relationship with The Boeing Company on a UH-1N Replacement Helicopter System non-production effort (November 26, 2025), representing minimal subcontract exposure and confirming the vendor's prime-focused operating model. The source documentation notes a five-year DLA Aviation IDC ceiling of $504,261, reflecting Kipper's established credibility as an exclusive supplier of general utility tool kits for defense logistics operations, positioning the company as a strategic small-business vendor in federal tool and equipment procurement ecosystems.
