Kedl Ross M

Kedl Ross M, a small business sole proprietorship based in Centennial, Colorado, provides medical expert witness and medical case review services exclusively to the federal government as a prime contractor under total small business set-asides and competitive full-and-open procurements. The vendor operates 100% as a prime, holds no subcontractor roles, and competes predominantly under total small business set-asides; recent awards split between small-business-set-aside BPA calls and no-set-aside expert witness purchase orders from HHS Civil Division.

Kedl Ross M's entire customer footprint concentrates with two HHS entities. The Health Resources and Services Administration Headquarters (HRSA HQ) accounts for 70 of 74 awards, representing $8.6 million combined potential value. The Department of Justice Civil Division holds the remaining four awards, valued at $25 thousand, for expert witness services. This concentration reflects Kedl Ross M's narrow specialization: medical case review and expert analysis to support HRSA's Vaccine Injury Compensation Program (VICP) and, as of mid-2026, the Countermeasures Injury Compensation Program (CICP).

The vendor's capability footprint is expressly defined by VICP/CICP work. Representative prime awards include a $37.5 thousand BPA call from HRSA on September 10, 2026, for medical case review services through August 2027; a $24.4 thousand total-small-business task order from August 2025 for medical expert services; a $15 thousand total-small-business BPA call from December 2024 for VICP case review; and a $13.4 thousand no-set-aside purchase order from HHS Civil Division in June 2024 for expert witness services, running through June 2027. Work is performed in Littleton or Centennial, Colorado, and involves detailed case file review, consultation with VICP/CICP team leads and Department of Justice attorneys, report preparation, interrogatory response, and court testimony. Compensation is structured hourly by credential: $375 per hour for MD/DO expert witnesses, $175 per hour for MD/DO case reviewers, and $125 per hour for PhD or other advanced-degree case reviewers.

Kedl Ross M sits on four HRSA-managed single-award BPAs: BPA 75R60221A00004 (42 task orders, $261 thousand combined potential value), BPA 75R60219A00101 (14 task orders, $55 thousand), BPA 75R60218A00002 (9 task orders, $32 thousand), and BPA 75R60226A00008 (1 task order, $38 thousand). The oldest BPA, 75R60221A00004, was originally established April 14, 2021, with a $249,999 ceiling and April 13, 2026 completion date; subsequent BPAs reflect vehicle renewals. Most recently, HRSA awarded a new single-award BPA on July 31, 2026, with a $7.5 million ceiling running through July 30, 2027, supporting both VICP and CICP medical expert services.

Activity has contracted sharply since 2022. The vendor averaged 17 awards in 2022, declining to 8 in 2023 and 5 each in 2024 and 2025, with only 2 awards recorded in the first nine months of 2026. Combined obligated dollars across all 74 awards total $411 thousand (5% of combined potential value), reflecting the vendor's position as a specialized, on-call consultant rather than a continuous-performance contractor. Only two awards face recompete within the next twenty-four months, carrying combined potential value of $51 thousand. The vendor has served HRSA since at least 2006, per SAM registration records cited in award summaries, but recent award activity focuses on task orders under renewable BPA vehicles rather than sustained volume growth.
