Vohne Liche Kennels Inc.

Vohne Liche Kennels Inc., a service-disabled veteran-owned small business based in Denver, Indiana, breeds, trains, and delivers specialized working dogs—including narcotic detection, explosive detection, and patrol canines—to federal law enforcement, military, and security agencies as a prime contractor, competing predominantly in full-and-open procurements without set-aside designations.

Vohne Liche Kennels operates as a for-profit Subchapter S corporation and veteran-owned business registered federally since 2002. The company's work centers on four concrete capabilities: single and dual-purpose detection canines (narcotic and explosive detection at stationary, patrol, and advanced levels), handler training courses, patrol and tactical dogs, and specialized canines for military working dog missions. Representative recent work includes a $165,000 delivery order from the U.S. Secret Service in February 2026 for detection and tactical canines under the GSA Federal Supply Schedule (completion February 8, 2027, performance in Beltsville, Maryland); a $112,500 Secret Service delivery order in July 2025 for detection canines under the same GSA vehicle (completion November 10, 2025, performance in Washington, DC); and a $54,000 BPA call from the Department of Homeland Security Transportation Security Administration in February 2023 for ten basic explosive detection canines (completion February 1, 2024). Vohne Liche Kennels also delivers handler training and lodging packages to U.S. Special Operations Command, with a $69,506 delivery order in August 2021 and a $34,461 delivery order in August 2021 for MPC handler training packages.

Customer concentration is heavily skewed toward Special Operations Command and tactical law enforcement. The top five funding agencies account for 65% of awards by count, but dollar concentration is more diffuse: Special Operations Command leads both metrics with 96 awards and $30.3 million in combined potential value, but the Department of Homeland Security Transportation Security Administration anchors $14.9 million across nine awards, and the Department of the Navy Naval Supply Systems Command carries $5.7 million. The U.S. Secret Service has placed 16 awards valued at $2 million combined.

Vohne Liche Kennels holds two significant federal indefinite delivery vehicles. A GSA Federal Supply Schedule contract (awarded August 1, 2023, ceiling $603,584, effective through July 31, 2028) provides canines priced from $5,000 to $18,000 each and handler training at $5,037 to $6,045, with 50 task orders placed totaling $8.2 million in combined potential value. A Department of Defense Air Force Security Forces Center Blanket Purchase Agreement (awarded August 5, 2022, ceiling $10 million, effective through March 30, 2027) supports the Military Working Dog program with trained patrol, detection, and specialized-mission canines across the Department of Defense and other agencies. Vohne Liche Kennels also holds positions on multiple DoD IDIQs carrying 32 to 20 task orders each.

The vendor's recent activity is sparse—two awards in 2026, three in 2025, one in 2024—after a peak of seven awards in 2022. Only one award ($165,000) reaches ultimate completion inside the next twenty-four months, indicating minimal near-term recompete exposure. Across 252 prime awards in the source data spanning 2002 to March 2026, combined potential value stands at $79.2 million with $27 million (34%) obligated, reflecting the vendor's reliance on indefinite delivery vehicles and task-order cadence rather than continuous full-funding. The company competes full-and-open across all federal agencies and maintains no exclusive set-aside posture.
