Advanced Environmental Laboratories, Inc.

Advanced Environmental Laboratories, Inc., a Jacksonville, Florida-based small business Subchapter S corporation, operates as a prime contractor (84% of recent awards) and subcontractor providing environmental laboratory testing, sample analysis, and remediation support services to federal agencies with a particular focus on PFAS (per- and polyfluoroalkyl substances) analysis. The vendor competes predominantly under small-business set-asides—Total Small Business and Partial Small Business designations dominate its prime work—and holds active blanket purchase agreements with the Army Corps of Engineers Savannah District, USACE Savannah District, and the U.S. Forest Service Region 6.

AEL's recent prime awards reflect specialization in PFAS and environmental sample analysis across military installations and civil infrastructure. Representative work includes a $1.54 million Total Small Business purchase order from the Defense Health Agency (awarded September 2024, completion through September 2029) for non-drinking-water PFAS analysis using EPA Methods 537.1 and 533 at Aberdeen Proving Ground, Maryland; a $24,041 Total Small Business order from the U.S. Forest Service Region 6 (September 2026) for PFAS analysis of drinking-water samples from 75 water systems across Oregon and Washington; and a $2.7 million multiple-award BPA with USACE Savannah District (June 2026, expiring June 2031) covering laboratory testing and sample kits for aqueous and soil samples across Florida, Georgia, North Carolina, and South Carolina. Under the GSA Multiple Award Schedule, AEL holds one $9.8 million delivery order from GSA Federal Acquisition Service, which anchors much of the vendor's potential-value footprint despite representing a single task order.

Customer concentration is heavily weighted toward Navy, Army, and Air Force facilities. The top five customers by award count—Navy Naval Facilities Engineering Command (84 awards), Navy Installations Command (18 awards), Air Force Air Mobility Command (10 awards), Navy Supply Systems Command (5 awards), and USACE Savannah District (4 awards)—account for 77% of recent awards, though their combined potential value is only $4.6 million. The dollar-value ranking diverges sharply: GSA's single $9.8 million delivery order comprises 86% of combined potential value across the top five customers by dollars, underscoring AEL's reliance on a few large government vehicles. The vendor works 29 distinct federal agencies, predominantly DoD and civilian infrastructure customers.

AEL places 96 task orders under the GSA Multiple Award Schedule, its largest vehicle by call count, alongside eight orders under the EPA Remedial Acquisition Framework (Design and Engineering Services), six orders under Indefinite Delivery Contract F0860203DK004, and three orders under Blanket Purchase Agreement FA481419AA001. The vendor's NAICS profile centers on Testing Laboratories and Services (129 awards), with supplementary work in Remediation Services (11 awards) and Engineering Services (10 awards).

The subcontractor footprint shows AEL performing analytical laboratory services as a sub to major environmental remediation and engineering primes including CDM Federal Programs Corporation, AECOM Technical Services Inc., Jacobs Government Services Company, Tetra Tech Inc., and EA Engineering Science and Technology Inc. Typical sub work involves PFAS and volatile organic compound sampling and analysis, remedial investigations, feasibility studies, and site characterization across Superfund sites, military installations, and Air National Guard bases—for example, PFAS remedial investigation work at Jacksonville Air National Guard Base under AECOM, soil vapor extraction and air sparging support at Eglin Air Force Base under Jacobs, and Superfund site remedial investigation and design services under CDM Federal Programs. Activity remains stable at roughly 9 awards per year in 2023–2025, with only 2 awards (combined $132 thousand) facing completion within the next twenty-four months, indicating minimal near-term recompete pressure. The Service Contract Inventory shows four SCI-reportable records (all as named subcontractors) across FY2022–FY2025, reflecting the vendor's sub-focused service-contract presence and the sub-$150,000 threshold of most prime purchase orders and BPA calls.
