Applied Intellect - Trihydro 8A JV II LLC

Applied Intellect - Trihydro 8A JV II LLC, a Subcontinent Asian American-owned, 8(a)-certified small disadvantaged business joint venture based in South Riding, Virginia, operates as a prime contractor specializing in environmental consulting, environmental remediation, hazardous materials response, and orphaned well program support services for the Department of the Interior's Bureau of Land Management and the Department of Agriculture's Forest Service. The vendor competes predominantly under 8(a) set-aside vehicles and holds two single-award IDIQs with the BLM valued at $50 million and $49 million, both awarded in March 2023 with five-year performance periods through 2028.

Applied Intellect - Trihydro 8A JV II LLC operates as a 100% prime contractor with no subcontractor footprint in the award record; across SCI-reportable prime contracts, subcontractors account for 21% of average hours, with six named subs performing parts of deliverables rather than major contract roles. The vendor's customer base is concentrated in the Interior BLM's National Office (7 awards, $99.1 million combined potential value, representing 95% of the portfolio's dollar value), with secondary work through the BLM's regional offices in California (3 awards, $2.4 million), Wyoming (3 awards, $563 thousand), and Idaho (2 awards, $54 thousand), plus Forest Service orphaned-well inventory contracts with Region 9 (Eastern) and Region 8 (Southern). The top two parent vehicles—IDIQs 140L0623D0012 (Federal Orphaned Well Program support, $50 million) and 140L0623D0003 (environmental response and hazardous materials services across 14 western states, $49 million)—account for nearly all task-order activity, with 10 and 8 task orders respectively generating $3.2 million and $2.2 million in combined potential value.

Recent representative work includes a $1.26 million CERCLA removal action at Clyde Mine in Sacramento, California (awarded October 2023), a $1.06 million CERCLA non-time-critical removal action at Lower Clear Creek Shooting Area in Cranberry Township, Pennsylvania (awarded September 2023), a $920,984.20 orphaned well inventory for Allegheny National Forest (awarded February 2024), a $649,253.31 orphaned well inventory for Wayne National Forest (awarded June 2024), a $436,221.50 abandoned mine land features inventory in Albany and Carbon Counties, Wyoming (awarded June 2026), and multiple methane emission monitoring and sampling-analysis tasks valued between $9,979.07 and $172,167.16. All work is firm fixed-price delivery orders against the two IDIQs, with performance across the 14-state western region plus Pennsylvania and Ohio.

Award activity peaked at nine awards in 2024, declined to four in 2025, and shows one award in 2026; the portfolio carries only $490 thousand in potential value facing ultimate completion within the next twenty-four months, indicating limited near-term recompete exposure but heavy concentration in the two core IDIQ vehicles approaching mid-term option exercises. SCI-reportable invoicing stood at $2 million across 3.7 FTEs in FY2024 and $2.3 million across 5.1 FTEs in FY2025, with government-paid hourly rates ranging from $94.28/hr at the 10th percentile to a median of $1,149.79/hr and $2,915.64/hr at the 90th percentile, reflecting a mix of field survey labor and senior environmental engineering and project management roles. The parent company is Applied Intellect LLC, an SBA 8(a)-certified, minority-owned (Asian-Pacific American), Subchapter S corporation that also carries a 2023 8(a) expiration marker in the source, creating potential certification-continuity questions for the joint-venture child.
