Council For Logistics Research Inc.

Council For Logistics Research Inc., a for-profit Subchapter S corporation based in McLean, Virginia, operates as a prime contractor on federal professional services and research-and-development work, with exposure across defense, homeland security, and civilian agencies. CLRI competes predominantly in full-and-open settings and holds positions on multiple government-wide and agency-specific vehicles rather than relying on set-aside categories, though it qualifies as a small business and sits on the OASIS+ Total Small Business (OASIS+SB) IDIQ awarded in December 2024.

CLRI's customer concentration is highly skewed toward the Air Force. The top five funding agencies account for 96% of combined potential value, anchored by the Federal Aviation Administration's $1 billion eFAST Blanket Purchase Agreement (awarded February 2022, extended through September 2029) and the Air Force Defense Finance and Accounting Service (17 awards, $292.3 million combined potential value). The Air Force Headquarters Secretary of the Air Force follows with 8 awards worth $159.2 million, and GSA Federal Acquisition Service contributes 6 awards worth $133.8 million. Department of Homeland Security Customs and Border Protection rounds the active set with 4 awards worth $45.9 million. CLRI's largest single vehicle is The Professional Services Schedule, which carries 17 task orders with $436.8 million in combined potential value, primarily supporting Air Force logistics and administrative management work. CLRI also holds 9 task orders under OASIS SB worth $67.3 million, with remaining exposure on Federal Supply Schedules GS10F0147M and GS10F0410M and the Veterans Technology Services vehicle.

Work is concentrated in administrative and management consulting (27 awards by NAICS code) and engineering services (10 awards), with secondary activity in computer systems design and facilities support. Representative prime work includes a $28.3 million Chief Medical Officer support services task order with Customs and Border Protection under OASIS SB (awarded September 2024, exercising Option Year 1 through September 2029), a $5.4 million training specialist delivery order with Defense Health Agency supporting Naval Medical Center San Diego's bioskills and simulation center (awarded September 2023, completing September 2028), a $6 million advisory and assistance services task order with Air Mobility Command for Concept of Future Operating Environment analysis (awarded October 2021, completing October 2025), and a $685 thousand executive assessment and analysis task order with Space and Missile Systems Center on commercial space industry capability (awarded July 2023, completing January 2026). CLRI also holds a newly awarded multiple-award IDIQ under the Missile Defense Agency's Scalable Homeland Innovative Enterprise Layered Defense (SHIELD) program with a $151 billion ceiling and ten-year performance period through December 2035.

Award volume has been modest and uneven over the past five years (three awards in 2021, one in 2022, three in 2023, three in 2024, two in 2025), with only one award (worth $7.7 million) facing ultimate completion inside the next twenty-four months — indicating low near-term recompete risk but also limited pipeline visibility from historical activity. SCI-reported invoicing shows $13 million across FY2022–FY2024 (roughly $3.5 million in FY2022, $5.1 million in FY2023, $4.5 million in FY2024), with an FTE trajectory of 8.5 FTEs in FY2022 rising to 17.6 FTEs by FY2024 across reported federal service contracts. Government-paid rates on SCI-reportable work ran a median of $127.76/hr, with senior labor reaching $151.46/hr at the 90th percentile and lower-tier labor at $48.72/hr. Across OASIS SB prime contracts, subcontractors performed an average 21% of total contractor hours, with 9 named subcontractors appearing in the SCI dataset. CLRI operates primarily as a prime (98% of recent awards) with minimal sub exposure, demonstrating a full-and-open competitive posture anchored to government-wide vehicles rather than set-aside vehicles.
