In the past five fiscal years, the Department of Defense (DoD) has relied heavily on small businesses for Facilities Support Services, awarding substantial contracts to a handful of standout firms. The data shows a clear concentration among a few leading players, with others capturing consistent but smaller shares of obligations.

At the top, TIYA Services LLC dominates the field with more than $371 million in obligations, making it the largest small business contractor in this category. It is followed by Akima Facilities Operations LLC at $285 million and Akima Intra-Data LLC with $217 million. Close behind, Tsay Professional Services Inc. secured $216 million, while JLL-Midnight Sun IFMS LLC captured $181 million, rounding out the top five.

The next tier includes firms such as Akima Range Readiness Operations LLC ($147 million), Aleut O&M Services LLC ($145 million), and Tech Systems Inc. ($142 million).
