About the company
Foster & Freeman USA Inc., a foreign-owned manufacturer based in Ashburn, Virginia, sells specialized forensic and investigative equipment—video spectral comparators, fingerprint capture systems, crime scene lighting, alternate light sources, microscopy systems, and forensic imaging technologies—to federal law enforcement and investigative agencies as a prime contractor. The company competes predominantly full-and-open (no set-aside pattern); recent awards span Total Small Business set-asides on equipment purchases and sole-source justifications, but the vendor does not hold SBA designations and participates in open competition across its customer base.
Foster & Freeman's customer concentration sits heavily with federal law enforcement. The top five customers by award count account for 42% of all awards and include the Army Criminal Investigation Command (44 awards, $4.7 million), the FBI Headquarters Division (30 awards, $1 million), the Secret Service (25 awards, $882 thousand), Immigration and Customs Enforcement (23 awards, $2.4 million), and Navy Criminal Investigative Service (22 awards, $3.3 million). The dollar ranking shifts slightly: the top five by potential value represent 53% of combined dollars, with the Army CID ($4.7 million) and DHS Customs and Border Protection ($4 million) anchoring the portfolio, followed by Navy NCIS ($3.3 million), ICE ($2.4 million), and the Bureau of Alcohol, Tobacco, Firearms and Explosives ($2.1 million). Representative prime work includes a $1.27 million CBP digital fingerprint capture systems contract (September 2025), a $693 thousand Navy NCIS Crime-Lite kit order (September 2023), a $606 thousand Army CID Crime-Lite alternate light source kits definitive contract (April 2023), and a $395 thousand ICE Video Spectral Comparator 9000 order for document examination (September 2025).
Foster & Freeman holds two active single-award Blanket Purchase Agreements: a $350 thousand BPA with Navy NCIS through May 2029 for Crime-Lite alternate light source equipment and forensic imaging systems (awarded May 2026), and a $733,735 BPA with ATF through April 2031 for new equipment procurement (awarded April 2026), under which a $113,765 fuming chamber call order was issued in April 2026. The vendor also maintains a GSA Multiple Award Schedule contract, though recent source data shows minimal task-order activity under this vehicle. Award volume has remained steady—seven awards in 2022, rising to twenty in 2023, then leveling at twelve per year in 2024 and 2025, with fifteen awards recorded through September 2026. Eight awards (combined potential value $1.3 million) face ultimate completion in the next twenty-four months and present recompete exposure. The vendor's work is predominantly NAICS 334516 (Analytical Laboratory Instrument Manufacturing) and PSC Laboratory Equipment and Supplies, reflecting its product-centric footprint. Foster & Freeman operates as a pure prime contractor (100% of awards) with one recorded sub-award to Atlantic Diving Supply for a Crime-Lite kit component in April 2024, indicating minimal subcontractor engagement. The source identifies the vendor as foreign-owned; place of performance across the award portfolio spans Ashburn, Virginia (primary manufacturing and administrative hub), Washington, DC, Chicago, Georgia, and other federal locations where agencies deploy the equipment.
