The Craddock Group, LLC

The Craddock Group, LLC, an Arlington, Virginia-headquartered Service-Disabled Veteran-Owned Small Business (SDVOSB), provides strategic capital investment planning, economic analysis, feasibility studies, real estate transaction support, and facilities management consulting to the Department of Veterans Affairs as a 100% prime contractor. The vendor competes predominantly under SDVOSB set-asides across its contract portfolio, though a meaningful share of task orders carry no set-aside designation.

The Craddock Group's federal customer base is entirely concentrated within VA. The top three customers by award count account for 94% of all awards: the VA Technology Acquisition Center (35 awards, $74.5 million combined potential value), the VA Office of Construction and Facilities Management (27 awards, $166.7 million combined potential value), and VA Headquarters (24 awards, $35.2 million combined potential value). The potential-value rankings align closely with volume, though the VA Office of Construction and Facilities Management carries the largest dollar exposure at $166.7 million across 27 awards. A single GSA Federal Acquisition Service award adds $57 million potential value, and an Office of the Secretary of Defense award carries $10 million, but VA dominates the vendor's footprint.

Representative work spans capital planning, feasibility analysis, and lease program management. On the capital investment side, a $2.185 million SDVOSB delivery order from the VA Technology Acquisition Center (awarded June 26, 2026, under the FY26 CIO IDIQ) covers FY28/29 capital budget documents. A $6.048 million delivery order from the same office (awarded September 16, 2025) procures Strategic Capital Investment Planning (SCIP) program support for fiscal years 2028 and 2029. On the feasibility front, a $2.384 million delivery order from VISN 22 (awarded March 27, 2025, under GSA Multiple Award Schedule) funds a feasibility study to determine replacement options for the VA Medical Center in Atlanta, Georgia. For enhanced-use lease work, a $1.997 million SDVOSB delivery order (awarded August 1, 2023) provides EUL program management support and technical reporting deliverables under the expanded EUL authority. The vendor also holds significant standing vehicle positions: a $7.5 million single-award SDVOSB IDIQ for capital investment options analysis (awarded June 26, 2026, extending through June 26, 2029), a $7.5 million single-award SDVOSB IDIQ for SCIP program support (awarded June 27, 2024, through June 9, 2026), a $7 million single-award SDVOSB IDIQ for capital investment options support services (awarded May 23, 2024, through June 9, 2026), a $6.332 million single-award SDVOSB IDIQ for enhanced-use lease program management (awarded February 2, 2022, through May 14, 2026), and a $130 million multiple-award SDVOSB BPA for real estate transaction support (awarded August 31, 2023, through August 30, 2028).

The vendor's primary parent vehicle is the Multiple Award Schedule, which carries 9 task orders valued at $153.6 million combined potential value. The five standing single-award IDIQs and BPA noted above collectively account for the bulk of the vendor's task-order pipeline and future work authorization. A secondary VA Real Property Strategic Utilization 2017-2022 IDIQ carried 14 task orders before expiration.

Activity has moderated in recent years. The vendor placed 11 awards in 2022 and 2024, 9 awards in 2023, 6 awards in 2025, and 4 awards in 2026 (as of June 26, 2026). Six awards with ultimate completion dates in the next twenty-four months carry combined potential value of $9.2 million—modest recompete exposure by the vendor's scale, reflecting the long-tail performance periods embedded in its standing IDIQs and the 2026–2029 timeframe of recent vehicle awards.

On federal service contracts captured in the Service Contract Inventory, The Craddock Group reported $26.4 million in invoiced revenue across FY2022–FY2024, with FTE delivery scaling from 8.4 FTEs in FY2022 to 17.7 FTEs in FY2024 and invoiced revenue rising from $6.1 million to $11.3 million across the same period. SCI is a partial view of federal services work above the $150,000 threshold, excluding goods, classified work, and non-federal revenue. Government-paid hourly rates on prime contracts median around $298/hr, with the spectrum running from $112.71/hr at the tenth percentile through $655.33/hr at the ninety-first percentile. The vendor operates predominantly as its own delivery team: across SCI-reportable prime contracts, subcontractors account for approximately 3% of total contractor hours, with five named subs reported. On GSA Schedule labor, the vendor offers four categories spanning consultant and manager roles from $147.68/hr to $336.30/hr, with education requirements ranging from bachelor's to master's degrees and no security-clearance prerequisites.
