Campbell Scientific Inc.

Campbell Scientific Inc., a for-profit manufacturer of advanced environmental monitoring equipment headquartered in Logan, Utah, operates as a prime contractor delivering data loggers, sensors, sonic anemometers, eddy covariance systems, gas analyzers, weather stations, and soil moisture probes to civilian federal agencies engaged in earth science research and environmental monitoring. The company competes predominantly in full-and-open procurements and holds no SBA set-aside certifications; however, multiple delivery orders carry total small business set-aside designations, indicating government preference for small business participation on individual orders rather than company-wide certification.

Campbell Scientific's federal footprint concentrates heavily on civilian environmental and earth science customers. The National Oceanic and Atmospheric Administration dominates by dollar value—169 awards worth $138.1 million combined potential value (44% of the company's total federal award ceiling)—anchored by a $9.8 million ASOS Software Baseline Management single-award indefinite delivery contract awarded September 2026 and a $3.4 million small-business-set-aside indefinite delivery contract for temperature and relative humidity power supply enclosures and mounting hardware supporting NOAA's Automated Surface Observing System network. The U.S. Geological Survey ranks second by award count (178 awards, $15.4 million combined potential value) under a $4.9 million five-year equipment repair and maintenance indefinite delivery contract (ultimate completion June 2029). The USDA Natural Resources Conservation Service Western Region (136 awards, $9.8 million), Department of the Army Test and Evaluation Command (152 awards, $5.7 million), and USDA Agricultural Research Service (120–105 awards across regions, roughly $2–2.6 million) round out the active set. Top three agencies account for 31% of recent award volume; by dollar value, NOAA and USGS together represent 32% of combined potential value, with NOAA alone standing at 44%.

Campbell Scientific's primary vehicle is the GSA Multiple Award Schedule (MAS)—a $70 million ceiling governmentwide contract awarded November 25, 2025, extending through November 24, 2030—which anchors 788 task orders valued at $30.6 million combined potential value. The company also holds two single-award indefinite delivery contracts: the $5.5 million NOAA ASOS Software Baseline Management IDC (September 2026–September 2031) and the $4.9 million USGS equipment, repair, and maintenance IDC (June 2024–June 2029). Representative MAS task orders reflect the breadth of civilian environmental work: a $1.77 million five-year small-business-set-aside delivery order from USDA's Office of the Chief Financial Officer for annual inspection, maintenance, and repair of CR1000X dataloggers and Vaisala humidity sensors across 213 soil climate monitoring stations in 12 western states (through June 2031); a $1.07 million NRCS delivery order for SNOTEL network equipment (completed September 2026); a $409,400 West Region delivery order for mission-critical calibrations and repair of SNOTEL and SCAN weather stations (through December 2026); and numerous smaller orders for eddy covariance systems, gas analyzers, and specialized sensors to support NOAA, NRCS, USDA Agricultural Research Service, and Army Test and Evaluation Command facilities.

Activity has declined year over year—63 awards in 2022 to 34 in 2026 (reflecting the source cutoff of September 28, 2026). Only 17 awards worth $2.9 million combined potential value complete within the next twenty-four months, indicating limited near-term recompete exposure. Recent subsidiary structure includes Meter Group Inc. and Juniper Systems Inc. (a self-certified small disadvantaged business), though awards identified in the source list Campbell Scientific Inc. as the prime throughout.

Campbell Scientific's subcontractor footprint is minimal—seven sub-awards over the source period—with one sub-award to Atlantic Diving Supply Inc. for Phase II technical data package work (May 2024) and contributions to collaborative research with the University System of New Hampshire on EC155 CO2/H2O cross-talk correction methods for gas analyzer sensor refinement (sub-grant award December 2023). The vast majority of federal work flows through Campbell Scientific as prime.

NAICS concentration aligns tightly with the product portfolio: Instruments and Related Products Manufacturing for Measuring, Displaying, and Controlling Industrial Process Variables (334513, 1,939 awards) dominates, followed by Other Measuring and Controlling Device Manufacturing, Analytical Laboratory Instrument Manufacturing, and Pressure/Temperature/Humidity Measuring and Controlling Instruments. Top PSC codes reflect the same: Laboratory Equipment and Supplies (572 awards), Meteorological Instruments and Apparatus (378 awards), and Combination and Miscellaneous Instruments (205 awards).

Campbell Scientific's federal customer base spans 141 distinct agencies, but civilian environmental research and operational weather/climate programs—particularly NOAA, USGS, and USDA—drive 55% of combined potential value. The company has no documented defense prime footprint; Department of the Army Test and Evaluation Command work centers on meteorological equipment calibration and repair at facilities such as Dugway, Utah and Panama, not acquisition system development or defense R&D. This posture reflects a business model optimized for selling ruggedized environmental instrumentation to federal research networks and operational monitoring programs rather than competing for defense modernization or combat-support contracts.
