Fugro USA Land, Inc.

Fugro USA Land, Inc., a foreign-owned geospatial services firm headquartered in Houston, competes as a prime contractor on a $1.41 billion combined potential-value federal award footprint spanning over 170 recent prime contracts and IDVs, delivering aerial imagery collection, LiDAR surveying, geophysical data acquisition, hyperspectral analysis, photogrammetric mapping, and geotechnical field exploration services to civilian and defense agencies without reliance on set-aside categories.

Fugro dominates the federal geospatial prime market through an $850 million single-award Geospatial Products and Services IV (GPSC4) contract with the U.S. Geological Survey, which accounts for 46 of the vendor's task orders and the lion's share of the award footprint's dollar value. The GPSC4, originally awarded August 9, 2021 with ultimate completion August 8, 2026, enables USGS and subordinate federal agencies to procure comprehensive geospatial solutions across mineral and energy resource assessments, 3D elevation mapping, natural hazard monitoring, coastal mapping, and infrastructure assessment missions. Representative delivery orders under GPSC4 include a $6.3 million Oklahoma statewide geospatial project, a $4.4 million Minnesota River Basin initiative, and multi-million-dollar regional efforts spanning Alaska, Arizona, Colorado, Florida, Nevada, North Dakota, South Dakota, Texas, Wyoming, and Puerto Rico—all firm fixed-price awards with no small business set-aside, reflecting Fugro's competitive standing in unrestricted federal procurement. Beyond GPSC4, Fugro holds a $249 million multiple-award Photogrammetric Mapping Indefinite Delivery Contract (awarded February 5, 2026, through February 4, 2031) with the U.S. Army Corps of Engineers Engineering and Support Center at St. Louis and a $5 million Blanket Purchase Agreement with the New Orleans District for engineering testing, construction material testing, and inspection services.

Customer concentration reflects heavy reliance on civilian earth-science agencies. USGS Office of Acquisitions and Grants accounts for 47 awards and $921.4 million of combined potential value across the prime footprint. USACE Engineering District St. Louis and the Department of Commerce National Oceanic and Atmospheric Administration follow at $257.3 million and $121.3 million respectively. These three customers alone represent 97% of the combined potential value across all awards. The Army Corps of Engineers broadly (including the district offices) anchors approximately 27% of award count and 18% of dollar value, leveraging Fugro's capabilities in hydrographic surveying, topobathymetric LiDAR, and orthographic imagery collection for water resource management and infrastructure assessment missions. NOAA's engagement focuses on shoreline mapping services under the Shoreline Mapping Support Services vehicle, with nine task orders valued at $7.2 million. The top-five customer agencies span 73% of recent award count; the top-five by dollar value capture 97% of combined potential.

Fugro operates primarily as a prime contractor across the footprint (95% of awards) and competes full-and-open with no reliance on set-aside categories. Activity has remained steady over the past five years—12 awards in 2022, peaking at 23 in 2024, with 12 prime contracts issued in 2026 through mid-June. SCI-reported invoicing of federal service contracts shows $35.1 million across FY2022–FY2024, with FY2024 invoicing reaching $18.4 million against 14.7 FTEs delivered; the trajectory reflects ramp-up from $3.3 million and 3.7 FTEs in FY2022. Government-paid hourly rates on SCI-reportable prime contracts span from a 10th percentile of $123.71/hr to a 90th percentile of $11,120.67/hr, with a median of $369.60/hr, indicating a mixed labor portfolio including field technicians and specialized technical staff. Across SCI-reportable prime contracts, Fugro engages subcontractors for an average of 21% of total contractor hours, naming 27 distinct subs across the records.

In its subcontractor role (5% of recent awards), Fugro delivers geotechnical field exploration, drilling, bathymetry, and hydrographic surveying services to primes including Ch2M Hill Inc., Jacobs/B&M Joint Venture, Stantec Consulting Services Inc., and AECOM Technical Services, with recent sub work including groundwater plume remediation design services, aircraft parking apron engineering for Wake Island Airfield, seismic study support for FEMA-USACE efforts in California, and bathymetry deliverables for DLA military construction projects.

Within the next twenty-four months, 32 awards carrying combined potential value of $35.6 million approach ultimate completion and face recompete exposure, including multiple GPSC4 delivery orders with expiration through August 2026 and several USACE contract vehicles maturing through calendar 2026 and into 2027. The GPSC4 master vehicle itself reaches its contract ceiling on August 8, 2026, and the source does not indicate whether Fugro has competed in or been awarded a successor to this anchor contract; recompete activity in this window will be decision-critical for the vendor's federal footprint trajectory.
