D-Co, Leaders And Training LLC

D-Co, Leaders And Training LLC, doing business as D-Co, is a service-disabled veteran-owned small business providing tactical and professional leadership training to the Department of Defense as a prime contractor (100% of recent awards). Based in Rockwood, Maine, D-Co operates as a for-profit limited liability company with no subcontract footprint — all 29 recent awards carry prime contractor status.

D-Co's capability portfolio centers on specialized military instruction: tactical leadership development, advanced marksmanship evaluation and training, leader development course (DLC) instruction, professional leadership training, and specialized skills training for military personnel and special operations forces. Representative awards include a $949,431 delivery order from U.S. Special Operations Command for FY21 training courses at Hurlburt Field, Florida (issued September 2021); a $77,472 definitive contract from Air Forces Europe and Africa for Leader Development Course Phase 1 and 2 instruction to 24 military personnel in Germany (May 2025); and a $72,416 purchase order from Air Forces Europe and Africa for advanced instruction covering maneuver tactics, subterranean operations, and specialty skills training (November 2023). Work spans NAICS 811930 (All Other Miscellaneous Schools and Instruction) and 611410 (Professional and Management Development Training), reflecting a focused portfolio in military education and tactical proficiency enhancement.

Customer concentration centers on U.S. Special Operations Command and Air Force components. Four agencies account for 76% of recent awards: U.S. Special Operations Command (4 awards, $11 million combined potential value), Department of the Air Force Air Combat Command (5 awards, $4.4 million), Department of the Air Force Special Operations Command (6 awards, $3.1 million), and Department of the Air Force United States Air Forces in Europe — Air Forces Africa (4 awards, $277 thousand). The two rankings diverge meaningfully — USSOCOM ranks second in award count but anchors $11 million of the combined potential value (47% of the portfolio), while Air Combat Command's five awards carry $4.4 million. D-Co sits on two named parent vehicles: an Indefinite Delivery Contract (FA441717D0006) with 6 task orders worth $5 million combined potential value, and a Blanket Purchase Agreement (FA483015A0022) with 2 task orders worth $212 thousand.

Activity has been sparse and episodic — one award in 2021, none in 2022, one in 2023, one in 2024, then three in 2025 and one in 2026 — suggesting a volatile pursuit pattern rather than sustained pipeline momentum. Combined potential value stands at $23.3 million across the 29 awards, with $11.7 million obligated (50% of potential). Two awards reach completion within the next twenty-four months, representing recompete exposure of roughly $109 thousand in combined potential value. D-Co does not compete under set-aside designations on most of its work — only one award in the visible portfolio carries a Total Small Business set-aside (the $46,137 Air Mobility Command leadership training course awarded September 2025); the remainder are full-and-open or no-set-aside awards. The vendor's contract vehicles and customer base align with direct Department of Defense training procurement, with limited exposure to civilian agency work.
