VSS Logistics LLC

VSS Logistics LLC, a Service-Disabled Veteran-Owned Small Business and HUBZone-certified firm based in Hardeeville, South Carolina, operates as a prime contractor supplying specialized tools, materials, warehouse and logistics support, and facility maintenance services to federal agencies across defense and civilian portfolios. The vendor competes predominantly under small-business set-asides (SDVOSB and HUBZone), with 99% of recent awards issued as prime contracts; recent activity spans 2,320 total awards with nearly $4.2 billion in combined potential value, though only $90.1 million obligated to date.

VSS Logistics' capability footprint centers on three concrete service lines: procurement and supply of hand tools (Snap-On brand toolboxes, torque wrenches, and related equipment), construction and industrial materials (plastic sheet, nonmetallic rod, transformers, electrical supplies), and logistics operations including warehouse support, equipment storage, and facility maintenance. Representative recent awards include a $5.8 million consolidated warehouse-services contract with VA Caribbean Healthcare System at the Port of Jacksonville, Florida (VISN 8, awarded June 2023, through June 2028); a $1.5 million duct-cleaning services contract across North Texas VA facilities (VISN 17, awarded February 2025, through September 2030); an $86 thousand ambulance-equipment installation at a VA facility (VISN 17, awarded July 2022); and a $1.28 million torque-system procurement for Army Aviation and Missile Command (awarded December 2025).

Customer concentration is extreme and heavily anchored by defense platforms. The Navy's Naval Sea Systems Command dominates on dollars—102 awards carrying $4 billion combined potential value—driven almost entirely by VSS Logistics' position on the $4 billion Seaport Next Generation (Seaport-NXG) Indefinite Delivery Contract awarded January 2025. GSA Federal Acquisition Service ranks second on dollars ($46.5 million across 176 awards), primarily through VSS Logistics' seat on the General Services Administration Multiple Award Schedule. By volume, the Marine Corps leads with 454 awards ($7 million), followed by the Army with 222 awards ($5.2 million). The Department of Veterans Affairs Veterans Integrated Service Network 17 (North Texas) places third by volume with 179 awards ($8.9 million combined potential value). The two rankings diverge sharply—NAVSEA and GSA dominate on dollars while Marine Corps and Army lead on count—signaling that NAVSEA work is driven by one large vehicle while Marine Corps and Army awards consist of smaller, repeated purchase orders and task orders.

VSS Logistics holds four named parent vehicles anchoring its competitive posture: the $4 billion Seaport-NXG Indefinite Delivery Contract with Naval Sea Systems Command (awarded January 2025, performance through January 2029); the $4,999,999 Blanket Purchase Agreement with Naval Air Warfare Center (single-award, no set-aside, awarded December 2024, through December 2029); the $5 million Blanket Purchase Agreement with Army Corps of Engineers (multiple-award, awarded May 2023, through May 2028); and the $7,308,760 Indefinite Delivery Contract with VA Veterans Integrated Service Network 8 for warehouse support services at Bay Pines, Florida (single-award, Total Small Business set-aside, awarded March 2022, through March 2027). Additionally, VSS Logistics holds a newly awarded $2,620,722 Indefinite Delivery Contract with VA Veterans Integrated Service Network 9 for warehouse-as-a-service in Louisville, Kentucky (awarded August 2026, through August 2030). The vendor places 763 task orders under GSA Multiple Award Schedule (the largest volume vehicle), 408 calls under a blanket purchase agreement (GS02FVETYZ), and 232 orders under an indefinite delivery contract (M0026309A0009).

Activity trajectory shows volatility but general growth: 32 awards in 2022 climbing to 55 in 2025, with 21 awards recorded year-to-date in 2026 (through September 22). The recompete cliff over the next twenty-four months carries eight awards with combined potential value of $10.4 million—manageable but worth monitoring, particularly if any major VA warehouse contracts roll over. The vendor faces recompete risk on the VA VISN 8 Bay Pines warehouse IDC (ceiling $7.3 million, originally expires March 2027, but no recent modification visible in the source extending beyond that date).

On Service Contract Inventory reporting, VSS Logistics invoiced $8.8 million across FY2023–FY2025 in reportable service contracts above the $150,000 threshold, delivered by a workforce trajectory that peaked at 85.3 FTEs in FY2024 before contracting to 5.2 FTEs in FY2025, signaling either reduced SCI-reportable work or shift toward lower-headcount task orders and materials supply. On prime contracts captured in SCI, median government-paid rates ran around $287.79 per hour, with 10th-percentile labor pricing at $46.34/hr and 90th-percentile rates reaching $826.37/hr—suggesting a mix of low-skill warehouse labor and specialized technician-level work. The vendor self-performs all reported labor; SCI-recordable subcontractor engagement is zero, consistent with a asset-light model built around direct procurement and material supply rather than labor subcontracting.

VSS Logistics subcontracts to Lockheed Martin Corporation on platform-maintenance and logistics-support work, including C-130J sustainment, facility management, and technical collection services. Named Lockheed Martin sub awards spanning 2022–2026 indicate VSS Logistics functions as a materials and kitting supplier into large defense primes. A secondary teaming relationship appears with Srctec, LLC on defense-article support for Ukraine, where VSS Logistics provided facilities maintenance and kitting services on radar-system (Q-50) contingency prepositions (awards dated February and December 2023). The vendor's sub-engagement is opportunistic and episodic, not strategic—the firm is fundamentally a prime-focused, materials-and-services vendor rather than a feeder into large primes.

NAICS concentration reflects the hand-tool and hardware-supply focus: Hardware Manufacturing dominates with 1,034 awards, followed by Saw Blade and Handsaw Manufacturing (413 awards) and other miscellaneous electrical and component categories. PSC concentration mirrors this—Hand Tools, Edged, Nonpowered rank first with 564 awards, Hardware, Commercial second with 280, and Tool and Hardware Boxes fifth with 85. The vendor's portfolio is heavily commoditized, repetitive ordering: small dollar values per award, high frequency, and low technical complexity—consistent with GSA Schedule and small-business set-aside practice.
