VForce

What VForce does

VForce, Inc. is a privately held Sacramento, California-based Certified Disabled Veteran Business Enterprise (DVBE, certification #1741671) and Micro Small Business that operates three integrated service lines: Security Services, VForce Consulting, and Staffing Services. The Security Services line provides professionally trained, primarily veteran, security officers for on-site protection, video monitoring, and security strategy/assessment work; the Consulting line delivers auditing, business process re-engineering, organizational assessments, performance audits, IT planning, project management, and procurement assistance to state and local agencies, with the consulting team citing over 30 years of relevant experience; and the Staffing Services line offers strategic staffing placement and workforce consultation, with leadership claiming over 60 years of combined staffing and employment experience. The company is led by Scott Judd (President & Chairman), Mark Nobili (Senior Vice President), and Tommy Schurkamp (Senior VP of Operations), and is staffed largely by military veterans transitioning to civilian life.

The business model is professional services revenue generated through direct enterprise sales to four named customer segments: California state and local government agencies, companies regulated by the California Public Utilities Commission (PUC), government contractors, and private sector clients. VForce monetizes its DVBE certification as a structural advantage — California agencies are mandated to meet 3% DVBE participation statewide, and PUC-regulated companies must allocate 1.5% of certain expenditures to DVBEs — making VForce an eligible partner for set-aside and mandated-participation contracts. Pricing is not publicly disclosed and is handled on a contract-by-contract basis. Distribution is direct (no resellers or intermediaries), with go-to-market executed through the vforceinc.com website and direct enterprise engagement.

The technology posture is minimal: the company discloses no proprietary technology stack, no APIs, no mobile applications, and no AI capabilities, positioning VForce as a labor-intensive services firm where the core "product" is the deployed personnel and consulting expertise. Customer evidence is concentrated in California public-sector audit and consulting work (Sacramento City USD, Alameda County Office of Education, Solano County Office of Education, Covered California, Blue Shield of California on CalPERS engagements, California Fiscal Crisis Management team), with at least one Southeastern U.S. engagement (State of Florida Department of Corrections). Headcount is reported at 251–500 employees, and the company holds PPO License #17457 in California.

Regional players

• American Guard Services: American Guard Services provides unarmed and armed security officers and event security across the western U.S. Comparable to VForce Security in service offerings and regional California focus, with similar mid-market positioning.
• Tri-City Security & Staffing: Tri-City Security is a Sacramento-area security and staffing provider offering licensed guard services and temporary staffing. Directly comparable to VForce as a regional California-based security and staffing competitor targeting Sacramento and Northern California clients.

Broad incumbents

• Robert Half International: Robert Half provides contract, temporary, and permanent placement staffing services, especially in finance, accounting, technology, and legal. Comparable to VForce Staffing in the staffing placement model, but focused on professional white-collar roles rather than veteran civilian transition.
• ManpowerGroup: ManpowerGroup is one of the largest global staffing firms, providing temporary, contract, and permanent placement across multiple verticals. Comparable to VForce Staffing in service lines, but at vastly greater scale and without a DVBE or veteran-focused positioning.
• Allied Universal: Allied Universal is the largest U.S. security services provider, offering on-site security officers, event security, and security technology. Comparable to VForce Security as a competitor in the same core service line, but at far greater scale and national footprint, and not DVBE-certified.
• Kelly Services: Kelly Services provides staffing, workforce solutions, and talent management across multiple industries, including government and professional services. Comparable to VForce Staffing, but operating at a national scale without a DVBE/veteran specialization.
• G4S / G4S Secure Solutions USA: G4S (now part of Allied Universal) provides manned security, security consulting, and risk management services globally, with U.S. government contracts. Comparable to VForce Security in core offerings, but at significantly larger scale.
• Securitas Security Services USA: Securitas provides on-site security guarding, mobile patrol, and security technology to a wide range of U.S. clients including government and commercial accounts. Direct competitor in VForce's security services line, but operates as a large multinational rather than a DVBE-focused provider.

Direct peers

• U.S. Security Associates: U.S. Security Associates (now part of Allied Universal) was a mid-sized U.S. security guard and uniformed officer provider serving commercial, industrial, and government clients. Most directly comparable to VForce Security in size and customer mix prior to acquisition.
• Maximus: Maximus provides government consulting and services, including health program administration, citizen engagement, and operational support. Comparable to VForce Consulting in the audit and consulting work for state agencies, though at vastly larger scale.
