Elite Forensic Services, LLC

Elite Forensic Services, LLC, a self-certified small disadvantaged business based in Vadnais Heights, Minnesota, provides fingerprint analysis and expert witness services to the Department of Justice as a prime contractor under full-and-open competition, with no subcontract footprint. The company is a limited liability company structured as a sole proprietorship and competes exclusively without set-aside protection across its federal work.

Elite Forensic Services operates in a tightly concentrated customer and service portfolio. The Department of Justice accounts for 100% of recent awards—32 purchase orders to the U.S. Attorney's Offices (combined potential value $433 thousand) and three orders from the FBI Headquarters Division ($28 thousand)—for a total of 35 prime contracts valued at $461 thousand in combined potential value. All work falls under NAICS All Other Legal Services (81 percent of awards) or Scientific and Technical Consulting Services (nine percent), with PSC coding split between Expert Witness support and training-related services. The relationship with the U.S. Attorney's Offices extends back to at least 2019, with cumulative contract value exceeding $250,000 across the portfolio.

Recent work consists entirely of time-and-materials purchase orders ranging from $1,800 to $27,550 in individual ceiling value. Representative awards include a $22,780 expert witness services order from the U.S. Attorney's Offices (April 2026, completion April 2028), a $24,880 fingerprint analysis and expert testimony contract (June 2025 through April 2028), and a $14,880 fingerprint analysis expert witness order with place of performance in Washington, DC (July 2025 through June 2028). Work is performed at the company's Minnesota headquarters and at U.S. Attorney's Office locations nationwide, including Washington, DC.

Activity has been steady but compressed in volume. The vendor received five awards in 2022, seven in 2023, eight in 2024, five in 2025, and two in the first four months of 2026. Eleven purchase orders (combined potential value $170 thousand) reach ultimate completion within the next twenty-four months and therefore face recompete. The vendor holds no parent contract vehicles, IDIQs, or GWACs and operates solely through individual purchase orders issued directly by DOJ components. The $447 thousand in combined dollars obligated represents 97 percent of combined potential value, indicating strong execution against a pipeline of modest scale and customer concentration.
