Metadata Forensics LLC

Metadata Forensics LLC, a Richmond, Virginia-based sole proprietorship, provides expert witness services, digital forensics analysis, and specialized training in metadata analysis and digital forensics to the Department of the Army as a prime contractor, operating under self-certified small disadvantaged business, veteran-owned, and service-disabled veteran-owned designations. The vendor competes predominantly under full-and-open competition with no set-aside requirements, though several individual task orders carry Total Small Business set-aside designations.

The vendor's capability portfolio centers on litigation support and forensic consultation. Metadata Forensics LLC delivers expert witness testimony, trial consultation, pre-trial preparation, forensic pathology and mechanisms-of-injury consultation, and evidence review for military court proceedings across Army commands. The company also develops and delivers customized training curricula in digital forensics and metadata analysis for TRADOC personnel. Representative work includes a $27,250 expert witness services purchase order from TRADOC awarded June 1, 2025, for trial consultation and testimony; a $62,500 trial consultation purchase order from the Department of the Army at Fort Stewart awarded May 31, 2024; and multiple specialized training task orders under the $520,420 TRADOC BPA, including a $52,000 task order (May 1, 2025) covering eight distinct course events (CAPIT, FAST, DVIT, and SAIC training modules) and a $28,000 call (March 24, 2025) for four training courses at Fort Knox, San Antonio, and Fort Leonard Wood.

Customer concentration is extreme and narrow. The Department of the Army Training and Doctrine Command anchors 30% of all awards by count (14 awards) but 55% of combined potential value ($718 thousand); the Department of the Army Forces Command accounts for 53% of awards (25 awards) but only 32% of dollars ($412 thousand). Together, TRADOC and FORSCOM represent 78 awards across all five Army organizations named. The Department of Homeland Security US Coast Guard and the Department of the Army Pacific Command account for the remaining 6 awards. This concentration reflects the vendor's narrow specialization in military litigation and forensics training.

The vendor holds a single-award Blanket Purchase Agreement with TRADOC (W911S7-23-A-0003), valued at $520,420 through September 2028, structured as an indefinite-delivery, indefinite-quantity contract vehicle for curriculum development and training delivery. Nine task orders under this BPA carry $136 thousand in combined potential value. The majority of Metadata Forensics LLC's portfolio consists of individual purchase orders for expert witness and trial consultation services issued by FORSCOM and TRADOC, ranging from $1,500 to $62,500 per order.

Activity has been irregular across the measurement window. The vendor recorded nine awards in 2022, a spike to eighteen in 2023, then declined to six in 2024 and three in 2025, with seven awards recorded in 2026 to date. The portfolio carries minimal recompete exposure: 47 awards total with $1.3 million combined potential value, of which $776 thousand (59%) has been obligated. The vendor operates exclusively as a prime contractor with no subcontract relationships. Primary PSC categories reflect expert witness work (35 awards) and training delivery (6 awards), with top NAICS clustering in Other Scientific and Technical Consulting Services (28 awards) and Child and Youth Services (10 awards).
