SDS Joint Venture

SDS Joint Venture, a service-disabled veteran-owned small business (SDVOSB) based in Knoxville, Tennessee, operates as a prime contractor delivering facilities maintenance, repair, and infrastructure support services to the General Services Administration and other federal agencies, competing predominantly under SDVOSB set-asides and full-and-open delivery orders. The firm is structured as a limited liability partnership and for-profit organization.

SDS Joint Venture's capability footprint centers on HVAC systems, plumbing, electrical work, roofing, and building system integration. The vendor's award portfolio is almost entirely concentrated in facilities support services (162 of 165 awards under primary NAICS 4961 — Facilities Support Services), with 145 awards coded to HVAC maintenance, repair, and rebuild of refrigeration and air-conditioning equipment. Representative work includes a $428,453.08 delivery order from GSA Region 6 for sealant joint removal and replacement and chiller repair at the Robert Denney Federal Building in Lincoln, Nebraska (April 2026); a $249,084.10 firm fixed-price delivery order for TPO roof system replacement at the same facility (September 2024); and a $144,654.50 order for bus duct, variable frequency drive, and steel beam repairs at the Denney building (August 2025). Recent activity also includes a $105,606.20 delivery order for Nasatka barrier system repair and upgrade based on inspection findings (July 2026), and smaller orders for chilled coil replacement, electrical deficiency correction, boiler repairs, and condensate line work.

Customer concentration is extreme and geographically narrow. GSA Public Buildings Service Region 7 and Region 6 together account for 98% of awards (156 of 165 total) and $29 million of the $35.2 million combined potential value. Region 7 dominates with 82 awards valued at $20.5 million; Region 6 follows with 74 awards valued at $8.5 million. The remaining customer base — Department of Agriculture, Department of Justice FBI, Department of Veterans Affairs, and Department of the Treasury — collectively account for only 7 awards and represents less than 2% of the portfolio. Within the GSA concentration, the vast majority of orders target a single facility: the Robert Denney Federal Building and U.S. Courthouse in Lincoln, Nebraska, which anchors SDS Joint Venture's work footprint since at least 2015.

SDS Joint Venture holds two parent indefinite delivery contracts. The primary vehicle is GSA Region 7 Indefinite Delivery Contract GS07P14JUD0039, which carries 84 task orders and $1.9 million in combined potential value. The secondary vehicle is GSA Region 6 Indefinite Delivery Contract 47PG0118D0021, which supports 65 task orders valued at $2.4 million. Both vehicles are regional GSA Public Buildings Service contracts used for recurring facility maintenance and repair work. A third smaller vehicle, GSA Region 6 Indefinite Delivery Contract GS06P15GXD7036, carries 9 task orders.

Activity trajectory shows contraction over the past five years. SDS Joint Venture received 16 awards per year in 2022 and 2023, declining to 10 in 2024, 6 in 2025, and 7 in 2026 year-to-date. The combined potential value of $35.2 million and combined obligated dollars of $30.2 million (86% realization rate) reflects a mature, stable but shrinking account. The award portfolio carries no subcontract work; SDS Joint Venture operates exclusively as a prime contractor. Set-aside posture is mixed: the vendor competes under SDVOSB set-asides on approximately 60% of recent awards and full-and-open on the remainder, indicating comfort in both competitive lanes but a recurrent reliance on SDVOSB designation for higher-value work.
