About the company
Knox County Association For Remarkable Citizens, Inc., operating its Kcarc Plant I Division, is an AbilityOne nonprofit manufacturer competing as a prime contractor (96% of recent awards) in open, non-set-aside federal procurements for wood containers, pallets, apparel manufacturing, and ordnance-related industrial goods, with a $26.1 million single-award indefinite delivery contract anchoring its defense customer base. The organization, headquartered at 641 Niblack Blvd in Vincennes, Indiana, operates a manufacturing facility that provides employment and manufacturing services for individuals with disabilities under the federal AbilityOne program.
KCARC's recent award portfolio (69 total awards since 2003, with activity accelerating in 2024–2026) reflects two distinct capability streams. Cold-weather apparel manufacturing dominates current revenue: the Defense Logistics Agency Troop Support Clothing and Textiles division represents the highest potential-value customer at $33.4 million across 5 awards, anchored by the June 2025 IDV ($26.1 million ceiling through June 2029) and four delivery orders issued between August 2025 and March 2026 for cold-weather shirt production ($1.55 million, $1.66 million, $1.58 million, and $2.45 million respectively, all firm fixed price, all scheduled for completion through February 2027). Historically, KCARC's primary business centered on wood container and pallet manufacturing for the Naval Sea Systems Command (18 awards, $13 million combined potential value) and the U.S. Marine Corps (14 awards, $285 thousand), with smaller volumes flowing to the Army Joint Munitions Command and Naval Special Warfare Command. The top five customer agencies account for 78% of awards and 90% of combined potential value, with a clear concentration split: DLA Clothing and Textiles anchors dollars, while Naval Sea Systems Command and the Marine Corps anchor award count.
KCARC's IDV footprint includes four active indefinite delivery vehicles: the $26.1 million Defense Logistics Agency Clothing and Textiles IDV (established June 2025, 4 task orders), an $7.2 million Army vehicle (SPE1C125DN009, 4 task orders), a $1.1 million Army Ammunition Support Center IDV (1 task order), and a $625 thousand Army IDV (1 task order). The vendor operates as a subcontractor to General Dynamics OTS (Wilkes Barre) on defense production for M795 155mm artillery projectile components, with three sub-awards since November 2024 for pallet covers and pallet sets supporting Ukraine munitions production.
Activity has grown from one award in 2020 to four in 2025 and two in the first quarter of 2026, though the long-tail award history (first award October 2003) reflects a decades-long partnership with defense and VA customers. Only two awards reach ultimate completion within the next twenty-four months (combined potential value $4 million), limiting near-term recompete exposure. NAICS concentration reflects the dual capability portfolio: Wood Container and Pallet Manufacturing (31 awards), Apparel Accessories and Other Apparel Manufacturing (5 awards), and Metal Heat Treating (6 awards) dominate the historical mix. The vendor holds no current position on government-wide acquisition contracts or GSA Schedules.
