About the company
Whelan Automotive Inc., headquartered in Newport News, Virginia, operates as a small business prime contractor delivering auto body repairs, collision repair, and vehicle maintenance services to the General Services Administration and the Department of the Air Force. The vendor competes predominantly under Total Small Business set-asides; 29 of 30 recent awards carry the Total Small Business designation, with one Air Force purchase order awarded full-and-open.
Whelan Automotive's federal footprint is tightly concentrated in GSA's Federal Acquisition Service, which accounts for 29 awards (100% coverage of the vendor's dollar base, $198 thousand combined potential value) as the primary customer. The Air Force placed one purchase order for vehicle repairs on a JTFCS Chevrolet Suburban valued at $8,466.96. Concrete recent work includes a $18,660.62 auto body repair purchase order from GSA FAS (July 2026), a $10,941.55 collision repair contract from GSA FAS (November 2024), and a $16,702.15 auto body repair order from GSA FAS (November 2022). The vendor operates under the doing-business-as name Bay Custom Auto on some GSA contracts.
All thirty awards are purchase orders for discrete repair jobs ranging from approximately $2,700 to $18,660, with combined potential value of $206 thousand and $195 thousand in obligated dollars (95% execution rate). Activity shows a concentrated burst in 2020 (eight awards) followed by sporadic single and double awards in subsequent years, with the most recent award arriving July 9, 2026. The vendor holds no parent vehicle seats, no IDIQs, and no standing BPAs — work is transactional, award-by-award micro-purchases and small-dollar purchase orders. Whelan Automotive operates 100% as a prime contractor with no recorded subcontract engagements. The vendor's service delivery is location-bound to Newport News, Virginia, and the core capability is confined to NAICS 441320 (Automotive Body, Paint, and Interior Repair and Maintenance) and PSC code MR04 (Maint/Repair/Rebuild of Ground Effect Vehicles, Motor Vehicles, Trailers, and Cycles).
