Vanguard Pacific LLC

Vanguard Pacific LLC, operating as Sentry-Box Services, is a Service-Disabled Veteran-Owned Small Business and SBA 8(a) Program Participant that delivers facility maintenance, construction, protective coatings, and infrastructure repair services to the federal government exclusively as a prime contractor across military installations and civilian agencies. The company is an Economically Disadvantaged Women-Owned Small Business, Women-Owned Small Business, and self-certified Small Disadvantaged Business headquartered in Foley, Alabama, with 8(a) certification expiring September 5, 2026.

Vanguard Pacific's capability portfolio centers on exterior and interior painting, airfield maintenance including line striping and rubber removal, HVAC systems repair and replacement, drywall repair and finishing, protective coatings, roofing, electrical upgrades, facility renovations, and specialized infrastructure support across military and civilian federal installations. Representative work includes a $2.8 million 8(a) sole source definitive contract with Air Education and Training Command for HVAC repairs, fire alarm system upgrades, and mass notification system installation at Maxwell Air Force Base-Gunter Annex (awarded October 16, 2025; completion August 20, 2027); a $3.68 million 8(a) sole source definitive contract with NIH for exterior roof, facade, foundation, and site repairs on Building 5 at the NIH campus (awarded October 15, 2025; completion October 14, 2026); and a $7.4 million competitive 8(a) single-award IDIQ with Air Combat Command for base-wide painting and CRU flooring services at Davis-Monthan Air Force Base (awarded July 15, 2025; through May 13, 2032).

Customer concentration is spread across 39 distinct federal agencies, with the top five by award count accounting for 67% of recent awards. NASA Kennedy Space Center leads by potential value at $153.2 million across 20 awards, followed by the Department of the Army at $45.4 million across 2 awards, Air Education and Training Command at $38 million across 26 awards, Air Mobility Command at $37.5 million across 36 awards, and NIH Construction at $31.9 million across 36 awards. The Air Force represents the largest concentration of activity—Air Combat Command alone accounts for 60 awards valued at $10.6 million combined, with Air Mobility Command at 36 awards ($37.5 million), and Air Education and Training Command at 26 awards ($38 million). District Washington (Defense) places 40 awards valued at $24.7 million in exterior painting, signage, and pavement work at Joint Base Andrews.

Vanguard Pacific competes heavily through set-asides, with 8(a) sole source awards and competitive 8(a) set-asides anchoring most high-dollar definitive contracts at NIH Construction and select Air Force commands. Service-Disabled Veteran-Owned Small Business set-asides account for a secondary tranche of awards, particularly with Air Combat Command and Global Strike Command. Woman-Owned Small Business set-asides drive the Air Mobility Command line striping and rubber removal contract ($7.37 million through August 2028). Across the recent award footprint, 8(a) sole source awards cluster with NIH Construction, FEMA, EPA, Department of Army, and GSA for renovation, infrastructure repair, and facility modernization work, while competitive 8(a) and SDVOSB set-asides dominate Air Force painting and protective coatings task orders.

Vanguard Pacific holds seven significant indefinite delivery vehicles. The Kennedy Space Center Small Task Order Construction contract, a multiple-award IDIQ, has generated 19 task orders valued at $3.2 million combined for painting, equipment replacement, roof repairs, and facility upgrades. A $9.5 million single-award SDVOSB IDIQ with District Washington (Defense) covers airfield rubber removal, striping, protective coatings, and signage at Joint Base Andrews through June 2031 and has supported 47 delivery orders totaling $6.2 million. Air Combat Command's $3 million single-award SDVOSB IDIQ for protective coatings at Whiteman Air Force Base (through September 2029) has generated eight delivery orders. A $7.4 million competitive 8(a) single-award IDIQ with Air Combat Command for painting and CRU flooring at Davis-Monthan (through May 2032) was recently awarded. Air Mobility Command's $7.37 million woman-owned small business set-aside IDIQ for line striping and rubber removal across McGuire and Wrightstown air force bases (through August 2028) shows consistent seasonal ordering. Air Education and Training Command's $19.99 million total small business MATOC for design, construction, and repair services at Maxwell AFB and Gunter Annex (through September 2029) has generated four task orders to date. The Department of the Army's $45 million total small business MATOC for construction and maintenance services supporting the Florida National Guard (through June 2029) has generated one $2,000 delivery order.

Activity has remained steady in the 49–50 award range for FY2022 and FY2024, declined to 39 in FY2023, dropped to 35 in FY2025, and shows only 10 awards through July 2026 year-to-date. Eleven awards with ultimate completion dates in the next twenty-four months carry combined potential value of $14.9 million, representing moderate recompete exposure across Air Force commands and NIH Construction programs. SCI-reportable federal service contract invoicing totaled $15 million across FY2022 through FY2025, with FY2025 registering $8.4 million across 5.0 FTEs—the highest single-year total in the dataset. Median government-paid hourly rates on SCI-reportable contracts ran $127.27 per hour, with senior labor reaching the 90th percentile at $765.80 per hour. Across SCI-reportable prime contracts, subcontractors accounted for an average of 4% of total contractor hours, with four named subcontractors reported, indicating Vanguard Pacific self-performs the vast majority of its federal services delivery. The vendor operates entirely as a prime contractor with no subcontract activity in the recent award footprint.

The corporate structure includes two subsidiaries: Martin Miser Cody & Associates LLC (a women-owned small business joint venture with service-disabled veteran-owned and small disadvantaged business certifications) and VPB LLC (a tribally owned firm, minority-owned business, and self-certified HUBZone joint venture). NAICS concentration is heavy in painting and wall covering (134 awards) and commercial/institutional building construction (87 awards), with secondary activity in highway and street construction (28 awards) and HVAC contracting (12 awards). PSC framing reflects facility maintenance and repair: maintenance of office buildings (48 awards), construction of miscellaneous buildings (40 awards), and repair or alteration of office buildings (34 awards).
