The Salvation Army

The Salvation Army, registered with a UEI of ZSMJTMCMXG93 and headquartered in Shreveport, Louisiana, is a tax-exempt corporate entity and non-profit organization that has maintained federal vendor registration since July 2004. The organization specializes in providing residential housing and community-based healthcare services to vulnerable populations, particularly homeless veterans, through its federal contract portfolio with the Department of Veterans Affairs.

The Salvation Army's federal contract work has focused exclusively on delivering Health Care for Homeless Veterans (HCHV) residential housing services in Shreveport, Louisiana, under awards from the Department of Veterans Affairs' Veterans Integrated Service Network 16. Since November 2021, the organization has received five delivery orders with ceiling values ranging from $170,290 to $372,060, totaling approximately $1.4 million across the contract period. These delivery orders, all structured as firm fixed price contracts with no set-aside designations, provided temporary and transitional residential housing accommodating 10 to 25 beds, along with community-based healthcare and associated support services for homeless veterans. The delivery orders span annual periods from November through October, with the most recent award effective November 1, 2025 through October 31, 2026 valued at $324,850. As a prime contractor on all awards, The Salvation Army has executed its responsibilities without subcontractor involvement, delivering services directly to veteran populations requiring stabilization support and access to medical and social services.

The Salvation Army holds a single-award indefinite delivery contract (IDC) valued at $3,104,200 awarded on November 1, 2021 by the Department of Veterans Affairs' Veterans Integrated Service Network 16, with a five-year performance period extending through October 31, 2026. This competitively awarded IDC, which carries no set-aside designations, establishes the contractual framework under which all subsequent delivery orders are issued to provide HCHV residential housing services in Shreveport. The contract vehicle was established following a pre-solicitation notice posted in August 2021 under NAICS code 623220 for residential mental health and substance abuse facilities. As of the most recent reporting, three delivery orders totaling $1,412,990 have been issued against this indefinite delivery contract, demonstrating sustained federal utilization of The Salvation Army's residential housing and integrated healthcare delivery model to support the VA's homeless veterans support infrastructure.
