About IDC Research, Inc.

IDC Research, Inc., a for-profit corporation headquartered in Boston, Massachusetts, delivers IT market intelligence subscriptions, technology advisory services, and research data to federal civilian agencies exclusively as a prime contractor under full-and-open competition—the company holds no SBA set-asides and operates through the GSA Multiple Award Schedule.

IDC Research's federal footprint spans 82 prime awards with a combined potential value of $34.7 million, though only $7.2 million has been obligated to date (21% realization). The vendor serves 27 customer agencies across 2002–2026, but recent activity has slowed materially: five awards in 2021 declined to two in 2024 and two in 2026 year-to-date. The top-five funding agencies by award count account for 39% of all awards, led by the Department of Commerce Bureau of Economic Analysis (8 awards, $288 thousand), the Department of Energy National Nuclear Security Administration (7 awards, $173 thousand), the Treasury Internal Revenue Service (6 awards, $689 thousand), and the Social Security Administration (6 awards, $1.7 million). However, customer concentration by dollars is acute and skewed by two large outlier awards: the GSA Office of the Chief Information Officer anchors $14.8 million in potential value on a single award, and the Department of the Interior Departmental Offices Chief Information Officer carries $10 million on one award. These two contracts alone represent 72% of the vendor's combined potential value; the top five customers by dollar value account for 87% of all potential dollars.

IDC Research operates almost entirely through the GSA Multiple Award Schedule, with 28 task orders and $29.2 million in combined potential value under that vehicle. Two task orders worth $369 thousand sit on the IT Schedule 70. The vendor's recent work includes a $321.6 thousand delivery order from the International Trade Administration (September 2023) for web search portals and information services; a $249.4 thousand delivery order from the Treasury Bureau of Engraving and Printing (February 2023) for IDC research subscription and services; a $143.5 thousand BPA call order renewal from the Social Security Administration (December 2023) for IT hardware sourcing and evaluation support; and a $73.1 thousand delivery order from the International Trade Administration (March 2026) for ICT spending data and analysis. Current NAICS concentration clusters around Other Computer Related Services (26 awards) and All Other Professional, Scientific, and Technical Services (13 awards), with PSC codes favoring IT and Telecom Web-Based Subscription work (11 awards). GSA labor rates span $141.05 to $463.45 per hour across six categories—junior analysts through executive subject-matter experts—with no security-clearance requirements and education credentials ranging from associate through master's degree. Only two awards face ultimate completion within the next twenty-four months, carrying combined potential value of $108 thousand, representing minimal recompete exposure near term.
