About the company
Carlson Software Inc., a for-profit manufacturer of geospatial surveying, CAD design, and field data collection software headquartered in Maysville, Kentucky, operates as a prime contractor (98% of recent awards) on full-and-open federal purchase orders, with no set-aside designations across its footprint. The company competes without SBA certifications and delivers software licenses, maintenance renewals, and surveying equipment to civilian agencies focused on natural resource management, mining oversight, and land surveying operations.
Carlson Software's customer base concentrates heavily within the Department of the Interior. The top five customer organizations account for 37% of award count and 67% of combined potential value, anchored by the Office of Surface Mining Reclamation and Enforcement (9 awards, $922 thousand combined potential value), followed by the Bureau of Land Management Alaska Region ($107 thousand), the Department of Agriculture Forest Service Washington Office ($54 thousand), the BLM Colorado Region ($49 thousand), and the Army Corps of Engineers Savannah District ($42 thousand). Interior dominates both volume and dollars; recent representative prime awards include a $198.9 thousand OSMRE maintenance and upgrade contract for Carlson Survey, civil engineering, and hydrology software (June 2024), a $106.7 thousand BLM Alaska cadastral survey software and equipment order (September 2024), and a $30.1 thousand BLM Colorado mining software maintenance purchase order (June 2026). The Department of Agriculture Forest Service and Naval Sea Systems Command represent secondary customers with smaller, recurring renewal orders in the range of $1.4 thousand to $23.2 thousand.
Carlson Software's recent activity is sparse and cyclical. Awards per year peaked at six in 2024, fell to four in 2025, and two in the first half of 2026; the combined potential value across all 51 awards (prime and sub) totals $1.7 million, with $1.5 million obligated. Four awards carrying $246 thousand in combined potential value reach ultimate completion within the next twenty-four months and face recompete exposure. The vendor's primary NAICS categories are Custom Computer Programming Services (19 awards) and Software Publishers (18 awards combined across two related codes), with PSC codes skewing toward Information Technology Software (17 awards) and annual software maintenance service plans (6 awards). The company operates as a subcontractor on one recorded award — a Department of Energy Waste Isolation Pilot Plant software maintenance renewal sub-award (November 2024) — representing less than 2% of its federal footprint. Carlson Software's award history extends to 2004 (SAM.gov registration date), positioning it as an established supplier to Interior and USDA for specialized surveying and engineering software in full-and-open competition without vehicle placement on GWACs, IDIQs, or agency-wide BPAs.
