About the company

Peopleready Inc., doing business as Peopleready, Inc., a subsidiary of Trueblue Inc., provides temporary skilled trade labor—primarily HVAC mechanics, general maintenance workers, and augmentee staff—to the Smithsonian Institution and other federal civilian agencies as a prime contractor. The company operates in full-and-open competition with no SBA set-asides across its federal portfolio.

Peopleready's federal customer base is highly concentrated around a single agency. The Smithsonian Institution accounts for 32 of 38 total awards (84% of awards) and $7.6 million of the $7.7 million combined potential value (99% of dollars). The remaining four awards distributed across the Federal Emergency Management Agency Region 4, the Department of the Treasury's United States Mint, and FEMA carry negligible dollar volume. This concentration reflects Peopleready's role as the Smithsonian's primary on-call staffing vendor for facilities maintenance across the Washington D.C. metropolitan area and the National Museum of the American Indian facility in New York.

Peopleready operates exclusively as a prime contractor—100% of recent awards are primes; no sub-award activity appears in the source. The company holds two principal blanket purchase agreements with the Smithsonian Institution: a $1.5 million single-award BPA for HVAC mechanics (awarded February 1, 2022, extending through January 2024) and a $2.5 million single-award BPA for temporary skilled trade labor support (awarded February 1, 2022, extending through September 30, 2027). Against these vehicles, the Smithsonian has issued 19 task orders valued at $2.1 million under the first BPA and 6 task orders valued at $1.3 million under the second. Representative work includes a $249.7 thousand call for two HVAC mechanics supporting Smithsonian facilities (February 1, 2024), a $192.7 thousand call for two augmentee staff (USRO positions) at the Suitland facility (March 26, 2025), a $165.9 thousand call for two augmentee staff at the Suitland facility (September 22, 2025), and a $103.7 thousand call for unscheduled repairs and routine operational maintenance at the National Museum of African American History and Culture (February 24, 2025).

Activity has declined markedly since 2022. The vendor received 15 awards in 2022, declining to 3 in 2023, 6 in 2024, and 6 in 2025, with only 1 award year-to-date in 2026 (as of March 5, 2026). Only two awards totaling $96 thousand face ultimate completion within the next twenty-four months, creating limited near-term recompete exposure. The category profile shows 21 awards classified under NAICS 561320 (Temporary Help Services) and NAICS 238220 (Plumbing, Heating, and Air-Conditioning Contractors), with the primary PSC driver being maintenance and repair of HVAC equipment.

Service Contract Inventory reporting captures minimal scope: six total SCI records (three as prime, three as named subcontractor) across fiscal years 2022–2024, with zero invoiced revenue reported across all fiscal years covered and 11.6 FTEs appearing only in FY2024. This reflects the sub-$150,000 threshold nature of most individual task-order calls against the Smithsonian BPAs, placing most Peopleready volume outside SCI's reporting band. The vendor performs work at multiple locations: Smithsonian facilities in Washington D.C. (including the National Zoo, National Museum of African American History and Culture, Museum Support Center in Suitland, Maryland, and the Smithsonian Castle), the National Museum of the American Indian in New York, and Smithsonian administrative sites.
