Advanced Engineering Consultants PLLC

Advanced Engineering Consultants PLLC, doing business as Advanced Engineering Consultants LLC, a self-certified small disadvantaged and Asian-Pacific American owned engineering consulting firm based in Columbus, Ohio, delivers architectural and engineering design services to the federal government as a prime contractor on 128 awards (91% of its portfolio) and as a subcontractor on 12 awards, with recent activity concentrated in facility modernization, infrastructure assessment, and multi-discipline MEP (mechanical, electrical, plumbing) and structural design for defense installations and civilian federal buildings.

The vendor holds a self-certified small disadvantaged business designation and is Asian-Pacific American owned; it competes under Total Small Business set-asides on a subset of its work (visible in recent GSA Region 5 awards) and full-and-open on the majority of its prime awards. Primary NAICS coding reflects engineering services (77 awards) and architectural services (63 awards), with PSC work concentrated in architect-and-engineering-general disciplines spanning landscaping, interior layout, design, and inspection.

Advanced Engineering Consultants' customer concentration is driven by Army Corps of Engineers entities and Air Force material commands, though the two rankings diverge meaningfully. By award count, the Department of the Air Force Materiel Command leads with 23 awards and $28.3 million combined potential value, followed by the Army Corps of Engineers Kansas City District (19 awards, $13.2 million). By potential value, however, the Army Corps of Engineers Support Center Huntsville dominates with 7 awards carrying $51.3 million combined potential value—a single large-contract concentration that outweighs numerous smaller awards. The Navy Naval Facilities Engineering Command and Naval Sea Systems Command collectively account for recurring smaller task orders tied to Naval Support Activity Crane and regional installations. Together, the top five customer entities by potential value represent 84% of combined award value across 24 distinct federal agencies.

The vendor maintains five primary indefinite delivery contract vehicles: Air Force Materiel Command IDC FA860113D0003 (23 task orders, $4.8 million combined potential value), Navy Naval Sea Systems Command IDC N4008521D0089 (22 task orders, $6.5 million), Army Corps of Engineers IDC W912DQ12D4007 (22 task orders, $5.2 million), Air Force IDC FA860107D0006 (15 task orders, $1.9 million), and GSA Region 5 architectural-engineering services IDC 47PF0023D0048 (10 task orders, $1.5 million). The vendor also holds a $3.75 million multiple-award architectural and engineering design IDIQ with GSA Region 5 running through September 6, 2027, with eight delivery orders issued since March 2024 for federal building infrastructure projects across Ohio, Indiana, and Illinois—dock and garage barrier replacement at Carl B. Stokes U.S. Courthouse in Cleveland ($123.8 thousand), fire alarm replacement management and inspection at Thomas D. Lambros Federal Building in Youngstown ($148.1 thousand), and fire water supply piping replacement design at Anthony J. Celebrezze Federal Building in Cleveland ($146.8 thousand).

Recent representative prime work includes a $1.34 million firm fixed-price delivery order from Navy Installations Command for a Water and Electrical Study at Naval Support Activity Crane (awarded September 2022, completion extended to December 2023); a $710.6 thousand Naval Sea Systems Command delivery order for electrical reconductoring work across NSA Crane locations (awarded August 2023); a $653.7 thousand GSA Region 5 Total Small Business delivery order for testing and balance and ventilation verification across multiple Ohio federal buildings (awarded June 2024, completion May 2026); a $504.7 thousand Navy Installations Command delivery order for Greenwood Dam concept design to increase capacity to 100% of probable maximum flood standard at NSA Crane (awarded August 2025); and a $421.4 thousand Navy Installations Command delivery order for replacement of heating, sanitation, and plumbing systems, VFD installation, and SCADA modernization at Naval Support Activity Crane (awarded April 2026, WOSB set-aside, completion December 2026).

Activity has remained relatively flat over the past five years, with 7 awards in 2022 rising to a peak of 13 in 2024, then declining to 11 in 2025 and 2 awards (to date) in 2026. The recompete cliff presents minimal near-term risk: only three awards with combined potential value of $595 thousand face ultimate completion within the next twenty-four months, indicating a distributed completion schedule across the portfolio. Obligated dollars total $27.8 million (19% of combined potential value), reflecting a backlog of unexercised task-order ceiling across the IDV vehicles.

The vendor operates predominantly as a prime (91% of awards); in its subcontractor role, Advanced Engineering Consultants performs architectural and engineering design services under Barge Emersion Joint Venture on Department of Defense and Army Corps of Engineers facility modernization work, including design-refresh services for humidity repair and AHU fan relocation at Fort Moore, Georgia, design services for building repair and renovation across multiple Air Force bases, and structural design work including breakwater pier extension at Naval Station Norfolk. Service Contract Inventory reporting captures SCI-reported invoiced revenue of $205 thousand in FY2025 across 0.3 contractor FTEs on prime contracts; the median government-paid hourly rate on SCI-reportable work runs approximately $74.82 per hour, with senior labor pricing through $134.68 per hour. Across SCI-reportable prime contracts, subcontractors account for approximately 24% of total contractor hours, with two named subcontractors engaged. The SCI dataset represents a narrow slice of the vendor's federal services activity above the $150,000 reporting threshold and excludes goods, products, and smaller task orders.
