Electronic Risks Consultants, Inc.

Electronic Risks Consultants, Inc., a for-profit small business based in Phillipsburg, New Jersey, provides preventative maintenance, repair, and technical support services for scientific laboratory equipment and office machines across 110 distinct federal agencies as a prime contractor (100% of awards). The vendor operates entirely through full-and-open competition without set-aside designation on most work, though roughly 40% of recent awards carry small-business set-asides; the company has been registered in SAM since 2006.

The vendor's capability footprint splits between two dominant service lines. Laboratory instrumentation maintenance accounts for 83 awards under PSC code for instruments and lab equipment maintenance, covering mass spectrometers (Thermo, Agilent, Bruker, Waters, PerkinElmer brands), liquid chromatography and chromatography-mass spectrometry systems, inductively coupled plasma optical emission spectrometers, genetic analyzers, flow cytometers, and analytical spectrophotometers. Office machine and copier maintenance accounts for 115 awards under PSC codes for office-machine repair, covering multifunction printers, copiers, and plotters. Representative lab work includes a $714,444 total small business set-aside definitive contract with the Department of Defense (Office of the Secretary) for x-ray security system maintenance, repair, and training at USMEPCOM through September 2029; a $312,720 total small business set-aside definitive contract with the Bureau of the Fiscal Service for physical security system maintenance (metal detectors and baggage scanners) through September 2028; and a $237,252 purchase order from the Food and Drug Administration for post-warranty preventive maintenance and repair on a Dionex UHPLC mass spectrometer system through July 2029. The USDA Agricultural Research Service represents recurring work: the vendor holds active service plans valued at $107,658 (total small business set-aside through September 2028 for Shimadzu LCMS equipment in Madison, Wisconsin), $40,980 (total small business set-aside through July 2025 for Thermo Orbitrap equipment in Peoria, Illinois), and multiple other instrument contracts across regional ARS facilities.

Customer concentration is fragmented across 110 agencies, with the top five customers accounting for only 25% of awards by count. The Food and Drug Administration leads by potential value with 22 awards ($2.4 million combined), followed by DOD Uniformed Services University of the Health Sciences (9 awards, $1.1 million), the Defense Logistics Agency Document Services (28 awards, $1 million), the National Institute of Allergy and Infectious Diseases (13 awards, $639 thousand), and the Navy Bureau of Medicine and Surgery (14 awards, $556 thousand). This broad agency footprint reflects the vendor's positioning as a routine equipment-maintenance provider rather than a platform prime on any strategic vehicle.

The vendor holds no parent IDIQs, GWACs, or agency-wide blanket purchase agreements; all work flows through individual purchase orders and definitive contracts issued directly by customer agencies. The largest noted indefinite delivery vehicle is a $9,950,000 Defense Logistics Agency IDIQ for multifunctional device maintenance services referenced in some award summaries, but recent task-order activity does not surface this as an active revenue driver in the current snapshot.

Activity has declined markedly over the past five years, from 12 awards in 2022 to only 3 awards in 2026 year-to-date (through mid-July), with 2023 and 2024 each producing single digits to low-double-digit award counts. Eleven awards with combined potential value of $1.1 million face ultimate completion dates within the next twenty-four months and therefore present recompete exposure. Combined potential value across all 369 awards stands at $29 million, with $11.6 million (40%) already obligated, indicating a relatively modest backlog and revenue scale. The vendor does not appear in any subcontractor role across the source material — all 369 awards are prime awards.

Electronic Risks Consultants operates as a niche maintenance service provider in two stable but commodity-like markets: lab-equipment servicing and office-machine upkeep. The broad agency footprint and low concentration signal fragmented demand and limited customer lock-in; the absence of parent vehicles or large teaming relationships indicates no platform-level integration. The sharp decline in award volume (2022 to 2026) suggests either market contraction in these service categories, competitive displacement, or reduced pursuit activity by the vendor.
