Corey Reynolds LLC

Corey Reynolds LLC, a self-certified small disadvantaged business and sole proprietorship based in Lakewood, Colorado, provides strategic communications, education, and outreach services for the ShakeAlert Earthquake Early Warning System as a prime contractor exclusively under total small business set-asides. The firm operates 100% as a prime, with zero subcontract footprint, and concentrates entirely on a single federal customer — the U.S. Geological Survey's Office of Acquisitions and Grants within the Department of the Interior.

Corey Reynolds LLC's award portfolio consists of seven firm fixed-price purchase orders issued since November 2023, totaling $1.9 million in combined potential value and carrying $1.7 million in obligated dollars (89% executed). Work spans ShakeAlert Messaging, ShakeAlert Outdoors, ShakeAlert Ready Implementation, ShakeAlert Earthquake Information Tools, and the ShakeAlert Education Framework Project. Deliverables include strategic communications plans, multimedia video content, K-12 lesson plans, fact sheets, interactive training modules for emergency managers, earthquake information toolkits, website updates, curriculum materials, and community engagement resources targeting outdoor venues, schools, Community Emergency Response Teams, and the general public across California, Oregon, and Washington. All work is performed in Denver, Colorado, with monthly focus-team coordination and written status reporting to USGS. Awards are categorized under NAICS codes for Management Consulting Services and Scientific and Technical Consulting Services, with six orders classified under PSC Special Studies/Analysis—Educational.

The vendor faces a significant recompete cliff: five of seven awards (combined potential value $1.7 million) carry ultimate completion dates within the next twenty-four months. USGS is the sole customer, creating both customer concentration risk and revenue dependency. The relationship has grown modestly from one award in 2023 to three in 2025, declining to one in 2026, suggesting either a pause in USGS solicitation activity or a narrowing scope. The most recent purchase order — awarded November 17, 2026, for $244,216 in support of the ShakeAlert Ready Initiative — completes November 16, 2027. The largest single award to date is a $665,562 November 2024 Messaging Toolkit Update Project running through November 2027, which remains available as a platform for task-order extension or renewal under USGS's established vendor relationship.
