Marda Science, LLC

Marda Science, LLC is a for-profit limited liability company headquartered in Flagstaff, Arizona, that specializes in advanced scientific and technical consulting services for federal agencies. The company focuses on leveraging cutting-edge machine learning, deep learning, and remote sensing technologies to support environmental research and scientific monitoring objectives. As a small business entity registered with SAM.gov since March 2020, Marda Science has established itself as a reliable federal contractor providing sophisticated data analysis and modeling services to support civilian federal agencies' scientific missions.

Marda Science has secured four prime federal contract awards totaling $818,406 in funding, all awarded by the U.S. Geological Survey's Office of Acquisitions and Grants between February 2022 and September 2025. The company's contract work demonstrates consistent expertise in environmental monitoring and coastal analysis applications. Its earliest award in February 2022 was a $20,000 purchase order for data labeling and modeling services to develop machine learning models for aquatic vegetation identification and analysis in the Glen Canyon National Recreation Area. In July 2022, Marda Science received a $368,795 firm fixed-price purchase order for deep learning and remote sensing analyses to characterize coastal flooding and erosion impacts from large storms along the California and Washington coasts, utilizing imagery from 2012-2022 and structure-from-motion photogrammetry techniques. A subsequent July 2024 award of $404,736 continued this coastal focus with another deep learning and remote sensing specialist contract for analyzing coastal flooding and erosion impacts, designated as a total small business set-aside with performance extending through July 2026. Most recently, in September 2025, Marda Science was awarded a $24,875 purchase order for AI model calibration services, also designated as a total small business set-aside with completion scheduled for September 2026. Across these contracts, the company has demonstrated specialized capabilities in machine learning model development, environmental data analysis, remote sensing interpretation, and advanced imaging analysis to support USGS research priorities.
