About The Scale People, Inc.

The Scale People, Inc., a veteran-owned small disadvantaged business headquartered in Newport News, Virginia, supplies precision weighing equipment, pipette calibration services, and laboratory measurement instruments to the Defense Logistics Agency and the Department of Veterans Affairs as a prime contractor on full-and-open and small business set-aside task orders. The company operates as a child entity under a parent vendor with the same name based in Columbia, Maryland, and competes predominantly on DLA delivery orders without set-aside restrictions, though it holds two single-award small business set-aside Indefinite Delivery Contracts with DLA Aviation valued at $250,000 each.

The Scale People's federal footprint reflects extreme customer concentration anchored on the Defense Logistics Agency Troop Support Medical division. Of 2,693 prime awards spanning 1994 to April 2026, the DLA Troop Support Medical accounts for 1,933 awards (72% by count) and $1.02 billion in combined potential value (96% of the total portfolio). DLA Aviation represents the second customer with 497 awards and $7.8 million combined potential value. The Department of Veterans Affairs Veterans Integrated Service Network 19 follows with 60 awards and $2.7 million. The remaining 94% of awards by count—and 97% of combined potential value—flow through these three customers. The company's NAICS footprint is similarly concentrated: Medical, Dental, and Hospital Equipment and Supplies Merchant Wholesalers accounts for 1,919 awards, with Scale and Balance Manufacturing contributing 322 and Other Measuring and Controlling Device Manufacturing 237.

Work performed under the vendor's portfolio centers on multi-level pipette calibration (Levels 2–5), ISO 17025-certified balance calibration, and supply of industrial and analytical weighing scales including electronic column scales, digital floor scales, and bench scales. Representative recent delivery orders include a $10.9 million Level 4 pipette calibration order from DLA Medical Supply Chain (July 2025), a $24.7 million precision weighing scales order from DLA Aviation (July 2025), a $17.9 million total small business set-aside weighing scales order from DLA Aviation (February 2026), and a $12.5 million patient wheelchair scales order from the Department of Veterans Affairs under the Medical Equipment and Supplies GSA Schedule (September 2025). All awards are priced on a firm fixed-price basis with performance in Newport News, Virginia.

The Scale People places the vast majority of its delivery orders against two parent Indefinite Delivery Contracts with DLA: IDC SPE2DH18D0001 (1,247 task orders, $1.5 million combined potential value) and IDC SPE2DH23D0004 (662 task orders, $807 thousand combined potential value). The company also holds a Federal Supply Schedule position under GS26F1022B (92 task orders, $755 thousand) and operates under the Medical Equipment and Supplies GSA Schedule (74 task orders, $2.8 million combined potential value). All parent vehicles carry either total small business or no set-aside designations.

Activity has remained stable in recent years—269 awards in 2022, declining to 233 in both 2024 and 2025—with only 57 awards recorded through April 2026. Combined dollars obligated across the portfolio total $10.8 million against a combined potential value of $1.06 billion, indicating the majority of the portfolio reflects ceiling values rather than invoiced revenue to date. Only one award carries an ultimate completion date within the next twenty-four months (combined potential value $13 thousand), presenting minimal recompete exposure in the near term but also signaling that most of the vendor's IDV vehicles have expired or are approaching expiration. The company operates as a 100% prime contractor with no subcontract footprint reflected in the source data.
