Through prime contract awards, Vishal Inc. has provided hotel rooms and temporary lodging services in Jackson to support Air National Guard personnel and programs operating in the local area. The firm fixed price call contracts against the Air Force's blanket purchase agreement vehicle have carried total small business set aside designations, completion dates ranging from May 2020 through January 2023, and potential values between $10,075 and $24,960 per award. In all, Vishal Inc. has been awarded over $100,000 in small business set aside contracts to furnish accommodations for transient Air National Guard personnel requiring short-term housing while conducting operations, training, or other military duties and responsibilities in and around Jackson on an intermittent basis.

Additionally, Vishal Inc. holds a $250,000 blanket purchase agreement awarded in January 2020 by the Air National Guard to supply temporary lodging support through January 2023 for military personnel in an inactive duty status. Multiple firm fixed price calls have been issued under this agreement to secure blocks of hotel rooms specifically tailored for Air National Guard members engaging in part-time responsibilities that necessitate regional accommodations. By streamlining procurement through a blanket purchase agreement and leveraging a local small business, the Air National Guard can efficiently fulfill short-term housing requirements over an extended multi-year period for personnel operating in the Jackson vicinity.
