Veteran Elevated Solutions, LLC

Veteran Elevated Solutions, LLC, a Service-Disabled Veteran-Owned Small Business based in Tacoma, Washington, provides elevator maintenance, repair, replacement, and vertical transportation equipment services exclusively as a prime contractor to federal agencies under SDVOSB and Total Small Business set-asides. The company is a child entity of parent Veteran Elevator LLC, a self-certified small disadvantaged business and veteran-owned operation.

Veteran Elevated Solutions competes predominantly under set-asides. Across its recent prime portfolio of 95 awards spanning fiscal 2024 through September 2026, the vendor has won 100 percent of its work as a prime contractor with no subcontract activity. Set-aside posture breaks heavily toward SDVOSB (the majority of awards and dollars) and Total Small Business (secondary concentration, particularly at DoD installations). A small number of orders carry no set-aside designation, typically small discrete repair tasks at naval facilities. The vendor operates exclusively in elevator and vertical transportation maintenance under NAICS 238290 (Other Building Equipment Contractors), with combined potential value across all awards of $110.4 million and obligated dollars of $73.6 million as of the source date.

Customer concentration is split between the Department of Veterans Affairs and the Department of the Navy. The top five customers by award count — Navy Installations Command (17 awards, $3.2 million), Army Installation Management Command Southeast Region (15 awards, $787 thousand), Naval Facilities Engineering Command (11 awards, $16.1 million), VA VISN 10 (7 awards, $6.5 million), and VA VISN 7 (4 awards, $8.5 million) — account for 57 percent of awards. By potential value, the distribution shifts toward VA VISN 17 ($16.9 million across 3 awards), Naval Facilities Engineering Command ($16.1 million across 11 awards), VA VISN 21 ($9.9 million), VA VISN 7, and VA VISN 6, which together represent 54 percent of combined potential value. The concentration reveals two distinct revenue streams: multiple small task orders at Navy installations (particularly Norfolk, Portsmouth, and Virginia Beach) bundled through recurring IDIQ vehicles, and large-dollar definitive elevator replacement and modernization contracts at VA medical centers nationwide.

Veteran Elevated Solutions holds nine parent vehicles anchoring its federal footprint. The Navy Facilities Engineering Command indefinite-delivery contract (N4008525D4005) generates the highest task-order volume with 31 orders valued at $4.7 million, covering recurring vertical transportation maintenance at Virginia naval installations. The Army Southeast Region IDIQ (W911S825DA010) supports 16 task orders at Joint Base Lewis-McChord in Washington for elevator and vertical transportation equipment maintenance ($788 thousand). The company also sits on six task orders under the GSA Multiple Award Schedule ($1.5 million combined), a second Navy IDIQ (N4008526D0022, 2 orders, $477 thousand), and single-award blanket purchase agreements with VA VISN 4, VA VISN 5, VA VISN 15, the Navy (covering Naval Station Great Lakes and Lovell Federal Health Care Center), GSA Region 9 (Philip Burton Federal Building, San Francisco), and the Army Corps of Engineers Pittsburgh District. The GSA Schedule contract (awarded March 27, 2026) lists five active labor categories spanning project manager, elevator apprentice, mechanic, adjustor, and qualified elevator inspector, with hourly rates ranging from $253.65 to $383.83 and requiring three to eight years of experience plus technical certification or bachelor's degrees; no security-cleared positions are offered.

Activity has grown sharply. Awards counted four in fiscal 2024, jumped to 43 in fiscal 2025, and reached 48 in fiscal 2026 through September 30. Twenty-seven awards with ultimate completion dates in the next twenty-four months carry combined potential value of $46.2 million, representing significant recompete exposure for the vendor and corresponding opportunity for competitors. Service Contract Inventory data covering fiscal 2024 and fiscal 2025 shows invoiced labor of $857 thousand total ($72 thousand in FY2024, $785 thousand in FY2025) across roughly 0.1 to 1.0 FTEs per year. Government-paid rates on SCI-reported contracts ran a median of $375.39 per hour, with the 10th percentile at $251.35 per hour and the 90th percentile at $499.43 per hour, reflecting a mix of routine maintenance labor at lower rates and senior inspector or project-management roles at higher rates. SCI data indicate the vendor subcontracts 25 percent of hours on average across prime contracts, with two named subcontractors reported, though the broader award portfolio shows zero recorded sub-awards, suggesting subcontracting is limited to below-threshold service-labor engagements on maintenance contracts.

Representative named work includes a $12.6 million definitive contract with VA VISN 17 for elevator replacement and modernization at Garland VA Medical Center (awarded August 6, 2026), a $7.488 million SDVOSB definitive contract with VA VISN 6 for elevator upgrades at Charles George VA Medical Center in Asheville (June 30, 2025), a $7.15 million contract with VA VISN 12 for elevator upgrades at Captain James A. Lovell Federal Health Care Center in North Chicago (May 26, 2026), a $6.888 million contract with VA VISN 7 for elevator upgrades at Tuscaloosa VA Medical Center (June 1, 2026), and a $4.987 million contract with VA VISN 20 for elevator refurbishment at VA Puget Sound Health Care System Building 61 in Tacoma (August 11, 2026). At the Navy, the vendor delivers under the $15.1 million indefinite-delivery contract with Naval Facilities Engineering Command for regional vertical transportation maintenance across Virginia naval installations (Norfolk, Portsmouth, Virginia Beach, Yorktown, Dam Neck Annex) and under the $2.31 million IDIQ with Army Southeast Region for vertical transportation equipment at Joint Base Lewis-McChord.
