Ea-Baker Partners JV

Ea-Baker Partners JV, a for-profit joint venture based in Hunt Valley, Maryland, provides specialized architect-engineering services, facility testing and certification, and technical training to defense and infrastructure agencies as a prime contractor operating entirely under full-and-open competition with no set-aside designations. The JV is a subsidiary of EA Engineering, Science, and Technology, Inc., PBC, and competes exclusively as a prime — zero subcontract work in the award footprint.

The vendor's customer base is heavily concentrated in two defense agencies. The U.S. Army Corps of Engineers Engineering District Omaha and the Defense Logistics Agency Energy account for 100% of recent awards (4 and 2 awards respectively), with USACE Omaha carrying $283.5 million in combined potential value and DLA Energy contributing $36.9 million. This concentration is anchored by a single $249 million indefinite delivery contract with USACE Omaha District for architect-engineering services running through July 2031, which serves as the parent vehicle for the majority of delivery orders.

Under the USACE Omaha IDC, Ea-Baker Partners JV has delivered multiple task orders: a $31.9 million CY26 leak detection testing order (completion February 2027), a $2.54 million CY26 leak detection operator training order (completion February 2027), and an initial $2,500 A-E services task order (completion July 2029). For the Defense Logistics Agency, the vendor holds a separate stream of work for annual testing, certification, and training at DLA's capitalized fuel facilities throughout CONUS and OCONUS; recent delivery orders include a $31.2 million DLA annual testing, certification, and training requirement (completion February 2026) and a $5.7 million prior fiscal-year order (completion February 2025).

The vendor's footprint shows early-stage activity with four awards in 2024 and two in 2025, yielding $71.4 million in obligated dollars against $320.4 million in combined potential value (22% obligation rate). Two awards totaling $34.5 million face ultimate completion within the next twenty-four months, creating a meaningful recompete window. All work falls under primary NAICS 541512 (Architect and Engineering Services) and PSC Architect-and-Engineering General, positioning the vendor as a specialized infrastructure and technical services provider to federal defense infrastructure missions rather than a generalist engineering firm.
