About the company
Virginia Polytechnic Institute & State University, a public land-grant research university doing business as Virginia Polytechnic Institute through its Accounts Receivable Division, is a federal prime contractor providing tuition and educational services to the Department of the Navy. The university operates on a full-and-open basis with no SBA set-aside designations across its federal work, holding 98 percent of its recent award footprint as prime contracts rather than subcontract work.
The institution's federal capability portfolio centers entirely on military education funding through firm fixed-price delivery orders and purchase orders for Naval Reserve Officers Training Corps (NROTC) midshipmen tuition, allowable fees, and related educational expenses. Representative prime contract work includes a $3.364 million delivery order from the Bureau of Naval Personnel in November 2025 for ratification of government-at-fault retroactive tuition for NROTC midshipmen; a $3.045 million Spring 2025 NROTC midshipmen tuition delivery order from the Bureau of Naval Personnel awarded in March 2025; a $2.606 million Spring 2024 tuition order for 176 students from the Bureau of Naval Personnel in March 2024; and a $2.69 million Fall 2023 NROTC midshipmen tuition delivery order from the Chief of Naval Personnel in October 2023. The university also performs ancillary technical and research work: a $17,555 purchase order from the Office of Naval Research in February 2024 for delivery of an Advanced DSP and Filter Design course; a $402 purchase order from the Office of Naval Research in May 2025 for single-crystal X-ray diffraction data collection; and sub-recipient grant work under Wake Forest University Health Sciences (R01 veterinary research on canine gliomas), Electric Power Research Institute (secure private communications network research), and Indiana University (electrokinetics and computational catalyst research).
Customer concentration is extreme and Navy-focused. The top five Navy components account for 55 percent of all awards by count and 99 percent of combined potential value. The Bureau of Naval Personnel's Chief of Naval Personnel office leads by dollars at $32.8 million across 26 awards, followed by Naval Education and Training Command at $18 million across 40 awards. The Bureau of Naval Personnel (non-Chief) contributes $13.8 million across nine awards, and the Bureau of Medicine and Surgery adds $287 thousand across 15 awards. All other federal agencies combined represent less than one percent of potential value. The university holds two core vehicle positions: a Basic Ordering Agreement (N0018919GZ050) with 24 task orders and $36 million combined potential value running through July 2029, and an Indefinite Delivery Contract (N0014006G0075) with 31 task orders and $27.5 million combined potential value. These two vehicles anchor 96 percent of the institution's recent federal contract pipeline. Awards per year have been flat to modest — five in 2022, eight in 2023, seven in 2024, ten in 2025 — with only one award recorded year-to-date in 2026. Recompete exposure in the next twenty-four months is minimal: one award valued at $68 thousand faces ultimate completion. The university's federal services work is captured minimally in the Service Contract Inventory dataset; SCI reports only 0.2 FTEs in FY2024 (one sub-record), reflecting the fact that its tuition-based prime delivery orders and micro-purchases fall below or outside SCI reporting thresholds.
