Office of the Inspector General

Department of Energy Office of the Inspector General is a civilian agency sub-office within the Department of Energy that procures investigative, audit, and oversight services supporting the Inspector General's statutory mission to conduct independent audits, investigations, and inspections of Department programs and operations. The Office of the Inspector General awarded 101 federal contracts totaling $127.8 million in combined potential value since its first contract award in 2006, with 4 awards in 2022, 2 in 2023, 5 in 2024, 3 in 2025, and 6 so far in 2026.

Contract activity is highly fragmented across 59 distinct prime contractors. Cohnreznick LLP dominates recent competition, holding 6 of the top-five awards by count over the last five years with $19.6 million in combined potential value. No other prime contractor approaches this volume; the remaining top-five entries by count each account for a single award in the $20 thousand to $495 thousand range. By potential value, Cohnreznick again leads with $19.6 million, followed by a long tail of single-award contractors including Lindholm & Associates, Inc. ($4 million), Rabalais & Associates, P.L.L.C. ($1.2 million), Magnet Forensics, LLC ($829 thousand), and K10 Vision, Inc. ($663 thousand). The top five primes by count represent 43% of recent awards, while the top five by potential value represent 21% of recent combined potential value.

Set-asides are minimal — 90% of awards carry no set-aside designation, with 4% awarded under Total Small Business set-asides. Combined dollars obligated stand at $96.9 million, representing 76% of combined potential value across the portfolio.

The Office of the Inspector General has issued no recent publicly recorded contract opportunities in the digest's most-recent-opportunities block, and no grant activity is recorded against this office.
