The Expo Group, LLC

The Expo Group, LLC, doing business as Expo Group The, is a for-profit limited liability company headquartered in Irving, Texas, that provides exhibition and event support services to federal agencies as a prime contractor competing in the open market with no set-aside designation across its entire 97-award portfolio. The vendor operates across NAICS 5391 (Convention and Trade Show Organizers) and delivers concrete capabilities in booth rentals, drayage, carpet and padding installation, material handling, structure setup and dismantling, electrical service, labor support, and ancillary convention services for high-profile federal agency conferences and exhibitions.

The Expo Group's customer concentration spans defense and civilian agencies, with the top five customer organizations by award count accounting for 71% of recent awards. The Department of the Army Headquarters Office of the Secretary leads by volume with 38 awards valued at $240 thousand combined potential value; the United States Marine Corps follows with 11 awards at $124 thousand; and the Department of the Navy Chief of Naval Operations and Naval Air Warfare Center together account for 15 awards. By dollar magnitude, the Naval Air Warfare Center anchors the portfolio with 5 awards totaling $489 thousand, followed by Army Headquarters with 38 awards at $240 thousand. The National Science Foundation (4 awards, $120 thousand) and the National Institute of Neurological Disorders and Stroke under HHS (3 awards, $170 thousand) round out the top five. The vendor competes exclusively in full-and-open procurements; no set-aside categories appear across the portfolio.

Representative prime work includes a $145.7 thousand purchase order from the Naval Air Warfare Center for drayage and structure-booth services in support of I/ITSEC 2024; a $112.5 thousand Naval Air Warfare Center order for 2023 I/ITSEC drayage and structures; a $70.2 thousand Naval Air Warfare Center award for I/ITSEC 2025 event organization and management services; a $39.6 thousand National Science Foundation sole-source purchase order for booth rental and materials at the Society for Neuroscience conference in November 2023; a $33.9 thousand National Science Foundation award for Society for Neuroscience booth rental and setup in October 2024; and a $9.4 thousand Department of Defense Office of the Secretary purchase order for MEGACON 2026 carpet rental, padding, installation, and material handling at the Orange County Convention Center in Orlando, Florida in March 2026.

Activity has remained steady at approximately nine awards per year from 2022 through 2024, with a decline to five awards in 2025 and one award in 2026 year-to-date. Combined potential value across all 97 prime awards totals $1.6 million, with $1.4 million obligated, reflecting 90% execution of budgeted ceilings. The vendor operates entirely as a prime contractor—zero subcontract engagements appear in the source data—and carries no parent contract vehicles, GWACs, BPAs, or agency-wide IDIQs. Each award is a standalone firm fixed-price purchase order, typically with completion dates two to six weeks after award date, indicating short-duration project-based event support delivery. The vendor has maintained federal contractor registration in SAM.gov since July 2009 and has sustained continuous activity across defense and civilian agencies for over fifteen years, establishing a track record as a specialized exhibitions and events partner for federal agency outreach and conference participation.
