However, those management operations install all sorts of services, and those services' start() methods are called asynchronously with no guaranteed order and no guarantee that everything for deployment A is done before deployment B starts. So I doubt a solution based on the initial order would be robust.

Vica-versa? Let a @Singleton fire off an OSGi service. You can inject the EJB into the singleton and pass it onwards.
