About the company
Vinson & Elkins LLP, a Houston-based law partnership, provides specialized legal advisory services to federal agencies as a prime contractor on a full-and-open basis, with no subcontract footprint in recent federal work. The firm holds a single-award indefinite-delivery contract with the Department of Energy's Office of General Counsel and two purchase orders with the International Development Finance Corporation.
The firm's federal customer base is concentrated across two agencies. The Department of Energy accounts for $5 million (96% of combined potential value) under a single-award legal support services IDIQ with a $5 million ceiling awarded February 15, 2026, and running through February 14, 2027. The contract covers energy law, litigation support, financial transactions, intellectual property, non-profit law, and bankruptcy law, with services delivered primarily virtually. The International Development Finance Corporation accounts for two purchase orders totaling $205 thousand, both related to loan portfolio management: a $105 thousand engagement (awarded March 16, 2026, completing March 15, 2027) for legal advisory on the sale of DFC's Apollo Towers loan position, and a $100 thousand follow-on purchase order (awarded June 25, 2026, completing June 25, 2029).
All three awards are recent, clustered between February and June 2026. One award—the $105 thousand DFC purchase order—reaches ultimate completion within the next twenty-four months and faces recompete exposure. The firm's total obligated spend across all federal awards stands at $206 thousand (4% of the $5.2 million combined potential value), indicating early-stage contract execution. Vinson & Elkins operates in the legal services category (NAICS 8111, PSC R703) with no set-aside designations or small-business certifications applied to recent federal awards.
