Department Of Rehabilitation Services

Department of Rehabilitation Services Business Enterprises Program Oklahoma - Visual Services Division, a U.S. state government entity headquartered in Oklahoma City, operates as a prime contractor and grant recipient delivering food service operations and vocational rehabilitation services to federal agencies. The division functions as an employment-integration vehicle for individuals with disabilities, particularly those with visual impairments, while fulfilling federal food service and dining facility management contracts with the Department of Defense and grant-funded rehabilitation and independent living services through the Department of Education and the Department of Health and Human Services.

The division's customer concentration centers on Army commands. The Department of the Army Materiel Command Sustainment Command anchors the portfolio, accounting for 22 awards worth $735.3 million in combined potential value—roughly 76% of the division's total federal funding footprint of $972.4 million. The Department of the Army Materiel Command Mission and Installation Contracting Command Fort Sill adds 23 awards valued at $91.1 million, and the Department of the Army Installation Management Command Southwest Region contributes 10 awards worth $54.1 million. Together, these three Army entities account for 91% of combined potential value. The Navy Recruiting Command represents the highest award count (48 awards) but carries only $48 thousand in combined potential value, reflecting recruitment meal-support work at minimal scale. The Department of Education Office of Special Education and Rehabilitative Services and the Department of Education Office of Elementary and Secondary Education collectively issue 31 formula grants supporting vocational rehabilitation, supported employment, and independent living services.

The division holds a single-award indefinite delivery contract with the Army Sustainment Command for Fort Sill food services, ceiling value $136.2 million, running through July 19, 2029. Delivery orders against this IDC total $89.8 million across the two most recent awards: a $39.5 million delivery order issued July 20, 2024 (performance period July 20, 2024 through July 19, 2025), and a $10.9 million delivery order issued July 20, 2026 (performance period July 20, 2026 through July 19, 2027). The division also holds multiple Army BPAs and IDCs for food service operations at subordinate installations, including indefinite delivery contracts W9124J09D0003 ($160.1 million combined potential value, 23 task orders), W9124L16D0001 ($52.3 million, 6 task orders), and DABT3901D0003 ($57.1 million, 31 task orders). Work is performed primarily at Fort Sill, Lawton, Oklahoma, with additional dining and food service support at other Army installations across the Southwest Region and Navy recruiting centers. The division also provides a $362,678 boxed-meal supply contract to the Office of the Secretary of Defense for the 11th Oklahoma City Military Entrance Processing Station (MEPS), awarded April 1, 2024, through March 31, 2027.

Grant work focuses on vocational rehabilitation and independent living services in Oklahoma. The Department of Education Office of Special Education and Rehabilitative Services awards formula grants under the Rehabilitation Services Vocational Rehabilitation Grants to States program (CFDA 84.126), which provided $50.752 million in the most recent cycle (October 1, 2025 through September 30, 2026). The division also receives recurring awards under the Supported Employment Services for Individuals with the Most Significant Disabilities program (CFDA 84.187, $150 thousand annually), the Rehabilitation Services Independent Living Services for Older Individuals Who are Blind program (CFDA 84.177, $340,066 in FY2026), and the ACL Independent Living State Grants program through the Department of Health and Human Services Administration for Community Living (CFDA 93.369, $464,382 in FY2026). The Department of Education Office of Elementary and Secondary Education funds Indian Education Formula Grants to Local Educational Agencies annually. As a state government entity, the division operates as a grant recipient rather than a competitive awardee; grant awards are formula-based allocations to Oklahoma's designated state vocational rehabilitation entity.

The division's capability portfolio concentrates on full-service food operations (food receiving, meal preparation, serving, remote site feeding, dining facility sanitation, and attendant support) and employment-integration vocational services. Category concentration shows Food Service Contractors (73 awards), Caterers (49 awards), and Facilities Support Services (30 awards) as the dominant NAICS drivers, with PSC codes anchored on Housekeeping-Food (59 awards) and Composite Food Packages (49 awards). Award activity has remained relatively flat over the past five years—six awards in 2022, six in 2023, nine in 2024, eight in 2025, and three through mid-2026—with combined dollars obligated at $666.6 million (69% of combined potential value). Within the next twenty-four months, three awards carrying $363 thousand in combined potential value face ultimate completion; the Fort Sill IDC and its delivery order pipeline extend through July 2029 and do not enter recompete exposure until 2028–2029. The division holds two sub-grant positions under the State Department of Education for child nutrition reimbursement (awards dated June 24, 2026 and October 13, 2025), reflecting minimal sub-recipient activity relative to its prime role.
