About the company
Ardl Inc., doing business as Applied Research & Development Labs, is an SBA-certified HUBZone small disadvantaged and woman-owned business based in Mt. Vernon, Illinois, that provides environmental laboratory testing, analytical services, site remediation, and environmental consulting exclusively as a prime contractor to federal agencies. The company operates as a Subchapter S corporation and competes across both set-aside (Total Small Business, Woman-Owned Small Business) and unrestricted federal procurements.
Ardl's customer footprint concentrates overwhelmingly on the U.S. Army Corps of Engineers and the Environmental Protection Agency. The top three funding agencies account for 97 percent of combined potential value: the Department of the Army Corps of Engineers holds 202 awards worth $185.6 million combined potential value, the Corps of Engineers St. Louis District accounts for 213 awards worth $149.7 million, and EPA Region 7 carries 313 awards worth $19.1 million. The dollar concentration is inverse to award volume — the Corps' large single and multiple-award IDCs dominate potential value, while EPA Region 7's award count reflects numerous smaller delivery orders. Recent representative work spans organic and inorganic laboratory analysis, water and soil testing, mercury analysis, pre-dredge studies, Superfund site remediation, and hazardous waste management. Named recent delivery orders include a $3 million environmental consulting services order from DoD ENDIST St. Louis (April 2026), a $2.8 million laboratory testing task order at the Matthiessen and Hegeler Zinc Superfund Site from ENDIST St. Louis (April 2026), a $2.2 million SAJ FUDS Program Support order from the Army Corps (September 2025), and a $1.63 million analytical services delivery order from the Army Corps (January 2026).
Ardl holds five named parent Indefinite Delivery Contracts with the Army Corps of Engineers and EPA Region 7. The $88.125 million multiple-award Pre-placed Remedial Action Services IDC (awarded August 2022, expiring August 2027) carries 277 task orders totaling $1.6 million in combined potential value; the $49 million Environmental Consulting Services IDC (awarded April 2022) anchors 182 task orders for $1.4 million combined potential value; a $21.8 million single-award Environmental Laboratory Services IDC (awarded March 2024, expiring March 2029) covers organic and inorganic analysis, water and soil testing, and environmental consulting; and a $4.5 million single-award Environmental Laboratory Services IDC (awarded September 2022, expiring March 2026) funds water quality analysis, pre-dredge studies, and digestion services across Corps civil works projects in Illinois and Missouri. The vendor's award footprint spans 1,144 prime awards with $375.6 million combined potential value and $117.5 million in obligated dollars (31 percent obligation rate), reflecting a mature, heavily task-order-driven model.
Activity has remained flat to declining over the past five years — twelve awards in 2022 falling to five in 2026 (three months year-to-date). Seven awards (combined potential value $7.1 million) complete within the next twenty-four months, representing moderate recompete exposure. Ardl's capability concentration is sharp: 809 of 1,144 awards fall under Testing Laboratories and Services NAICS, with 119 awards in Environmental Consulting Services and 41 in Geophysical Surveying. The primary PSC footprint is Environmental Systems Protection (462 awards) and Special Studies/Analysis — Environmental Assessments (309 awards). Performance locations cluster around Illinois and Missouri, with facilities in Mt. Vernon, La Salle, East St. Louis, and St. Louis. Ardl competes as a prime contractor exclusively — the source identifies zero subcontract positions — and recurs across Total Small Business and Woman-Owned Small Business set-asides on newer awards while holding unrestricted delivery orders on mature IDCs.
