About MEI Research, LTD.
MEI Research, LTD., a Minneapolis-based for-profit Subchapter S corporation, provides specialized equipment maintenance, calibration, validation, and technical support services for metabolic research infrastructure to federal research institutions as a prime contractor on a full-and-open basis with no set-aside posture. The vendor operates exclusively as a prime (100% of awards) across a lean, highly specialized portfolio spanning metabolic chambers, calorimeters, gas analyzers, medical air systems, and blender equipment — work concentrated in NIH and USDA research facilities.
The customer base is tightly concentrated and stable. The National Institute of Diabetes and Digestive and Kidney Diseases (NIDDK) leads by award count with 16 awards ($844 thousand combined potential value), followed closely by the USDA Agricultural Research Service Plains Area with 13 awards ($801 thousand), and the National Cancer Institute with 5 awards ($1.7 million). Together, these three customers account for 86% of recent awards and 97% of combined potential value. NIDDK's dominance by count masks a dollars-led ranking where NCI's higher-value awards ($1.7 million across five orders) slightly exceed NIDDK's aggregate value, reflecting a portfolio mix of smaller maintenance calls at NIDDK and larger equipment/installation projects at NCI.
Recent representative work includes a $229.5 thousand firm fixed-price purchase order from NIDDK (July 2023) to design and install a dedicated medical air supply system for the NIDDK Metabolic Suites in Minneapolis; a $150.5 thousand multi-year (through December 2027) service contract with USDA Agricultural Research Service Plains Area (January 2023) covering annual preventive maintenance on room calorimeters and quarterly calibrations of high-flow mass flow meters and blenders at the Grand Forks, North Dakota facility; and a $75.1 thousand sole-source RFQ award from NIDDK (March 2026) for validation, calibration, and technical support of metabolic chambers in Phoenix, Arizona. Current activity is light: two awards in 2026, one in 2025, one in 2024, and two in 2023. Four awards (combined potential value $376 thousand) reach ultimate completion inside the next twenty-four months, creating moderate recompete exposure. The vendor has served federal research institutions continuously since 2008, with combined dollars obligated ($5.9 million) exceeding combined potential value ($3.6 million) across the 43-award footprint, indicating recurring task orders and option exercises that exceed initial ceiling values. Work is performed primarily in Minneapolis, Phoenix, Grand Forks, and Bethesda across metabolic research and clinical nutrition programs.
