About the company
The Manufacturing Skill Standards Council (doing business as Mssc), a tax-exempt nonprofit headquartered in Alexandria, Virginia, provides workforce certification and credentialing services to federal agencies and correctional facilities as a prime contractor, competing under full-and-open procurement with no set-aside designations across its federal footprint. Mssc specializes in manufacturing, logistics, and supply chain certification programs, delivering Certified Logistics Associate (CLA), Certified Logistics Technician (CLT), and Certified Petroleum Professional credentials through study materials, examinations, instructor training, and credentialing vouchers.
Mssc's customer concentration is heavily weighted toward the Department of the Army Training and Doctrine Command, which accounts for six awards and $4.6 million of the $5.1 million combined potential value across all recent federal work (76% of award count, 97% of potential value). The Department of Justice Bureau of Prisons operates as a secondary customer across five distinct facilities — Federal Correctional Institution Oxford, Federal Correctional Institution Pekin, United States Penitentiary Leavenworth, Federal Correctional Complex Yazoo City, and Federal Correctional Complex Victorville — collectively holding thirteen awards with combined potential value of approximately $397,000. The remaining ten federal agencies in Mssc's portfolio account for less than one percent of potential value.
Mssc holds a multiple-award indefinite delivery contract with Army TRADOC (contract W91QF523D0006, ceiling $3.7 million, ultimate completion April 16, 2028) issued May 1, 2023, through the Unison Marketplace platform. Two task orders have been placed against this vehicle: a $365,070 delivery order awarded June 2, 2023, for CLA certification services (ultimate completion September 30, 2027) and a $136,166 delivery order awarded July 28, 2025, for CLA credentialing vouchers (ultimate completion July 27, 2026). Mssc operates as a 100% prime contractor with no subcontract footprint in its federal award history. Recent activity has been sparse — one award per year in 2024, 2025, and 2026 — with a single recompete exposure: the $365,070 Army TRADOC delivery order completes September 30, 2027, remaining outside the next twenty-four-month recompete window. MSSC's federal work is categorized primarily under "Other Management Consulting Services" (six awards) and "Exam Preparation and Tutoring" (five awards), with PSC coding concentrated in Books and Pamphlets (eight awards) and Training Aids (five awards).
