Merani Holdings, LLC

Merani Holdings, LLC, a small business based in Niagara Falls, New York, operates as a prime contractor providing temporary lodging services to the Department of Defense under Total Small Business set-asides. The vendor holds a narrow, specialized federal footprint: five awards spanning seven years, all in hotel and motel accommodations, with combined potential value of $1 million and only $145 thousand in obligated dollars as of the source snapshot.

Merani's customer base divides between two Air Force entities and the Army Reserve Command. The Air Force Reserve Command accounts for three awards and $559 thousand in combined potential value; the Department of the Air Force holds one award valued at $400 thousand; the Army Reserve Command holds one award at $89 thousand. All five awards are prime contracts — no subcontract work. The vendor's service delivery concentrates entirely on NAICS 721110 (Hotels except Casino Hotels and Motels) and PSC 7410 (Transportation/Travel/Relocation–Travel/Lodging/Recruitment: Lodging, Hotel/Motel).

Merani's primary vehicle is a single-award Blanket Purchase Agreement with the Department of the Air Force (BPA FA667023A0001, awarded May 10, 2023, expiring May 9, 2028, ceiling $400 thousand) for overflow lodging at a Holiday Inn near Air Force installations. Against this BPA, two task orders have been placed totaling $410 thousand in combined potential value. The vendor also holds two BPA calls with the Army Reserve Command: one covering October 1, 2024 through September 30, 2025 (eight calls, $400 thousand ceiling), and a subsequent call effective October 1, 2025 through September 30, 2026 (ceiling $10,230). Activity is intermittent — one award per year across 2018, 2020, 2023, 2024, and 2025 — with only one award ($10,230) facing completion within twenty-four months. Obligated dollars lag potential value substantially (14% realization), indicating that available ceiling authority on the BPA and BPA calls exceeds actual lodging consumption to date.
