673 FSS FSR

NAF Elmendorf AFB, doing business as 673 FSS / FSR, is a U.S. government entity based in Anchorage, Alaska that operates exclusively as a sub-recipient under federal child nutrition and food service programs. The organization holds no prime contracts or grants and receives all 137 recent awards as a sub-recipient flowing from the Alaska Department of Education & Early Development, which is the prime grantee of programs funded by the Department of Agriculture Food and Nutrition Service.

NAF Elmendorf AFB's federal footprint centers entirely on child and adult care food provision and administration at Elmendorf Air Force Base and subordinate military family service facilities. Sub-award activity encompasses three primary program components: Child and Adult Care Food Program meals, cash-in-lieu reimbursements, and sponsor administration funding; the organization also receives periodic sub-awards designated "Elmendorf AFB Non-Appropriated Funds" for program execution. Representative recent sub-awards include Child and Adult Care Food Program meal and sponsor administration funding sub-awards from Alaska DEP dated May 2026, June 2025, and March 2025, flowing federal nutrition dollars to support on-base child care operations. A single Summer Food Service Program sub-award for sponsor meals and administration appeared in October 2024.

Customer concentration is absolute: the Department of Agriculture Food and Nutrition Service accounts for all 137 awards across the portfolio, with 100% of funding flowing through Alaska DEP as the state-level prime recipient. This structure reflects NAF Elmendorf AFB's institutional role as a non-appropriated fund activity (NAF) operating family service facilities within the military installation, rather than as a commercial or competitive federal vendor. Award velocity has grown from 14 sub-awards in 2023 to a peak of 53 in 2024, declining to 43 in 2025 and 27 through May 2026, tracking seasonal and fiscal-year food service cycles. Combined dollars obligated across all 137 sub-awards total $971 thousand, indicating small per-award values typical of quarterly and semi-monthly child nutrition reimbursements and administrative allowances. The organization has no participation on federal contract vehicles, GWACs, or BPAs, and operates entirely within the federal child nutrition grant ecosystem as a service point for military families stationed at Elmendorf Air Force Base.
