About The Lighthouse For The Blind, Incorporated

The Lighthouse For The Blind, Incorporated, an AbilityOne nonprofit agency and manufacturer of goods headquartered in Seattle, Washington, operates as a federal prime contractor supplying commercial goods and supplies across GSA's Fourth Party Logistics program and other federal vehicles. The organization competes in the full-and-open marketplace without set-aside designation, delivering tactical equipment, protective apparel, electronics, office supplies, and military clothing and textiles to the Department of Defense, GSA, and allied federal agencies.

The vendor's footprint is dominated by high-volume, low-unit-value transactional work. Recent activity spans 38,447 prime awards totaling $2.35 billion in combined potential value, with $452.8 million obligated across all work. Annual volume has declined from 8,364 awards in 2023 to 1,256 in 2026 through mid-July, reflecting the contract landscape's shift toward consolidation and fewer, larger orders. The vendor holds a single subcontract award (an Information Analysis Center sub involving flip-top squirt dispenser caps, July 2025) with no meaningful sub footprint.

GSA Federal Acquisition Service accounts for 35,600 awards (93% of the count) under two dominant BPA vehicles: Blanket Purchase Agreement GS23FGA014 (19,004 task orders, $82.7 million combined potential value) and Blanket Purchase Agreement 47QSCC20T0005 (16,965 task orders, $3 million combined potential value). These vehicles carry the vendor through the entire range of office supplies, material handling equipment, and miscellaneous items. However, by dollar value, the vendor's true customer concentration sits with Defense Logistics Agency (DLA) Troop Support divisions: Clothing and Textiles (268 awards, $548.2 million) and Construction and Equipment (80 awards, $514.9 million) represent 52% of combined potential value across the portfolio. The vendor holds a single-award Indefinite Delivery Contract with DLA Troop Support Clothing and Textiles valued at $1.9 million through August 2028, complementing task-order activity. Recent work includes a Naval Education and Training Command single-award IDC (awarded December 2, 2025, $2 million ceiling through November 2026) for third-party logistics and hazardous materials supply management at Naval installations across Southwest California, Nevada, and Arizona — a Total Small Business set-aside designated for contractors employing severely disabled individuals at a rate of at least 33% of their workforce. Department of the Navy Naval Special Warfare Command (170 awards, $2.5 million), Army Acquisition Support Center PEO Soldier (14 awards, $57.6 million), and Naval Sea Systems Command (100 awards, $3.8 million) round out the customer base.

Category concentration by NAICS and PSC reflects the vendor's supply-fulfillment role: Office Supplies and Stationery Stores (19,039 awards), Industrial Machinery and Equipment Merchant Wholesalers (16,966 awards), and Carbon Paper/Inked Ribbon Manufacturing (669 awards) dominate award counts. PSC concentration echoes this — Office Supplies (19,965 awards), Material Handling Equipment, Nonself-Propelled (16,966 awards), and Individual Equipment (377 awards) capture the portfolio. The vendor manufactures goods in-house and acts as a logistics hub for federal supply orders, with most awards reflecting BPA call orders issued and completed within one to two weeks. Recompete exposure in the next twenty-four months is modest: 22 awards with combined potential value of $11.5 million reaching ultimate completion.

The organization's federal contracting mission aligns with its nonprofit charter: employment and advancement opportunities for individuals who are blind, DeafBlind, and blind with other disabilities. The vendor has held federal contractor status since 2002 and remains registered with SAM.gov, maintaining continuous eligibility across the GSA and DLA vehicle portfolios that anchor its revenue footprint.
