Smyrna Training Center

Smyrna Training Center, a division of the Tennessee Military Department, provides berthing and temporary lodging services to the Department of the Navy Reserve and Army as a non-profit prime contractor operating under full-and-open competition with no set-aside designations across its $2.5 million federal award footprint.

Smyrna Training Center is a tax-exempt corporate entity headquartered in Smyrna, Tennessee (504 Fitzhugh Blvd), classified under NAICS 721110 (Hotels except Casino Hotels and Motels) and PSC 7610 (Transportation/Travel/Relocation — Lodging). The organization competes exclusively in unrestricted procurements and holds no SBA certifications. All 31 recent awards are prime contracts or blanket purchase agreements; the vendor does not subcontract.

The facility delivers temporary accommodations for Navy and Army reservists during operational readiness training and annual training periods. Representative work includes a single-award BPA awarded by the Navy Reserve on October 1, 2025, with a $150,000 ceiling through September 30, 2026 for berthing services to reservists in drilling status; a multiple-award BPA from Navy Reserve on October 1, 2024, valued up to $250,000 through September 30, 2025; and a firm-fixed-price purchase order from the Army Sustainment Command in April 2023 for $13,398 covering 45 single bedrooms and 7 shared apartment beds for fourteen nights during the 184th lodging for annual training (April 6–20, 2023). Monthly BPA calls against Navy Reserve vehicles have ranged from $216 to $5,194, reflecting variable demand.

Customer concentration sits with the Department of the Navy Reserve and its operational support component. The Department of the Navy Reserve holds 100% of combined potential value across four awards ($2.4 million ceiling), while the Navy Operational Support Centers account for 19 awards totaling $50,000 in combined potential value. The Department of the Army Tennessee Army National Guard (6 awards, $40,000), Army Materiel Command Sustainment Command (1 award, $13,000), and Army Special Operations Command (1 award, $9,000) round out the customer set. The vendor operates under three primary BPA vehicles: Navy Reserve BPA N6835823A0012 (10 task orders, $22,000 combined potential), Navy Reserve BPA N6835824A0044 (7 task orders, $8,000), and Navy Reserve BPA N6835826A0038 (1 task order, $18,000).

Activity has been episodic — one award in 2012, four in 2022, peaking at ten in 2023, then declining to seven in 2024 and three year-to-date in 2025. One award ($18,000 ceiling) reaches completion within the next twenty-four months. The vendor obligated only $63,000 against $2.5 million in combined potential value across all awards (3% execution rate), reflecting the monthly, as-needed call structure inherent to berthing BPAs and the Navy's variable drilling schedule.
