About Emerald Publishing LIMITED

Emerald Publishing LIMITED, a United Kingdom-based for-profit scholarly publisher, supplies academic and professional journal subscriptions and publication services to U.S. defense agencies as a sole-source prime contractor on small-dollar purchase orders, with no subcontract activity. The vendor operates full-and-open, without set-aside designations, and has been registered in SAM.gov since 2014.

Emerald Publishing's federal footprint centers on providing proprietary journal collections and electronic research resources to support institutional research and educational missions. The vendor's concrete capabilities include branded journal subscription packages—ICE Publishing's Current Journals Collection and Science Journals Collection for engineering and research institutions, and Emerald's own academic and professional journal platform for multi-year library subscriptions—and publication fee processing for peer-reviewed articles. Representative work includes a $35,786 firm fixed-price purchase order from the U.S. Army Corps of Engineers' Engineer Research and Development Center (ERDC) for Brand Name ICE Emerald Journals awarded December 31, 2026 with completion by December 31, 2026; a $101,530 three-year library subscription from the Air Force Institute of Technology (AFIT) under Air Education and Training Command for fiscal year 2026–2028 journal access; and a $33,086 sole-source contract from ERDC for ICE Current Engineering Journal Collection and ICE Science Journal Collection covering a twelve-month subscription period.

Customer concentration clusters around the Department of the Air Force and the Department of the Army. Air Education and Training Command dominates the footprint with four awards totaling $205,000 in combined potential value. The Army Corps of Engineers and its ERDC subdivision account for three awards totaling $103,000. The Air Force Materiel Command and the Army Materiel Command Research Development and Engineering Command complete the customer base. All five distinct customer agencies appear in both the award-count and potential-value rankings, signaling consistent small-order engagement across military research and training institutions rather than volume concentration with a single customer.

Recent activity shows episodic placement: one award in 2015, one in 2017, four in 2024, one in 2025, and two in 2026. Combined potential value across all nine awards totals $329,000, with $221,000 obligated (67% of potential value). One award ($36,000) reaches ultimate completion within the next twenty-four months, representing minimal recompete-cliff exposure. Emerald Publishing operates exclusively as a prime contractor with no subcontract relationships. The vendor's work maps primarily to NAICS Periodical Publishers and Software Publishers, with purchase orders classified under PSC Newspapers And Periodicals.
