Alexander Richard

Alexander Richard is a veteran-owned small business registered as a sole proprietorship to receive federal contract awards. Established in 2007, the company specializes in providing field investigative services to U.S. government agencies, particularly the Bureau of Alcohol, Tobacco, Firearms and Explosives (ATF). Alexander Richard's expertise lies in conducting background checks, surveillance operations, and evidence collection to support law enforcement and regulatory activities related to firearms, explosives, arson, and controlled substances.

The company has been awarded several federal contracts, primarily from the ATF, for various investigative services. In April 2024, Alexander Richard received a $4,448.21 firm-fixed-price delivery order contract for field investigative services, which was set aside for small businesses. This award was part of a larger $5 million single-award basic ordering agreement (BOA) with the ATF. Previously, in July 2020, the company was awarded a $17,770.59 delivery order to provide background field investigator services from May 2020 to March 2021. This order was an amendment to an existing blanket purchase agreement (BPA) and was not set aside for any specific business category. In October 2019, Alexander Richard received another delivery order worth $7,912.56 for additional background field investigator support services in Washington, D.C., which was set aside for small businesses.

Alexander Richard holds a significant federal contract IDV in the form of a basic ordering agreement (BOA) with the ATF. This single-award BOA, established in April 2024, has a potential value of $5 million and runs through March 2029. The agreement enables the ATF to acquire field investigative services on an as-needed basis, covering a wide range of activities such as background checks, surveillance, undercover operations, and evidence gathering. An initial task order of $5,000 was issued under this BOA, set aside for small businesses, to support personnel security screening in the South Bend, Indiana area. This BOA structure allows the ATF to flexibly access Alexander Richard's investigative capabilities to support its mission across various jurisdictions and operational needs through March 2029.
