The Association Of The United States Army

The Association of the United States Army (AUSA), a non-profit organization headquartered in Arlington, Virginia, operates as a prime contractor providing event management, convention space rental, and exhibit logistics services to the Department of Defense and allied federal agencies on a full-and-open basis with no socioeconomic set-aside utilization. AUSA holds a single-award Blanket Purchase Agreement with the Department of the Army Training and Doctrine Command valued at $220,000 through October 2028, which anchors its federal contracting footprint and enables streamlined procurement of event services across multiple Army entities and defense agencies.

AUSA's customer base concentrates heavily within the Army and defense establishment. The top five customer agencies by award count account for 50% of all awards and represent $2.8 million of the $4.4 million combined potential value across the entire portfolio. The Department of the Army Headquarters Office of the Secretary leads both rankings (23 awards, $1.2 million potential value), followed by the Defense Security Cooperation Agency (22 awards, $819 thousand potential value) and the Army Training and Doctrine Command (14 awards, $162 thousand potential value). The Army Installation Management Command Northeast Region, despite ranking third in potential value ($500 thousand across 10 awards), places fewer orders than DSCA, reflecting a split between high-volume/lower-value and lower-volume/higher-value customer relationships.

AUSA's capability portfolio centers on convention and trade show exhibit space rental and logistics. Recent representative work includes a $70,964.55 purchase order from the Office of the Secretary of Defense for 5,000 square feet of booth and senior leader office space at the AUSA Global Force Symposium and Exposition in Huntsville, Alabama (March 2026); a $113,987.50 firm fixed-price purchase order from the Defense Security Cooperation Agency for exhibit space at Eurosatory 2026 (September 2025); a $72,800 purchase order from the Office of the Secretary of the Army for multiple booth and demonstration areas totaling 10,400 square feet in Washington, DC (October 2025); and recurring decorative and logistical support services valued at $112,314 (March 2025). The organization also provides consolidated general-purchasing-card transaction reporting services to the Army War College and other Army entities. Award classification data reflects this specialization: 71 awards fall under Convention and Trade Show Organizers (NAICS), with 58 awards categorized under the PSC for Lease/Rental of Conference Space and Facilities.

Activity has remained sparse but consistent over the past five years, averaging five awards annually (2022–2025) with a slight uptick to six awards in 2025 after a decline to three in 2024. The organization has conducted business with the federal government since at least 1996, with 160 total awards in the source data. Obligated dollars represent 97% of combined potential value, indicating contract performance against awarded amounts. All awards are structured as purchase orders or the single-award BPA; no subcontract activity appears in the portfolio, and AUSA operates exclusively as a prime contractor. No set-aside designations apply to any identified awards.
