The Metro Group, Inc.

The Metro Group, Inc., doing business as Metro Group Inc., provides water treatment chemicals, facility maintenance services, and water system consulting to federal agencies as a prime contractor (97% of recent awards), operating from Long Island City, New York, as a Subchapter S for-profit corporation with no SBA set-aside designations across its federal footprint. The vendor holds active federal contracting status dating to 1986 and maintains SAM.gov registration since September 2000, competing consistently in full-and-open procurements with no minority, women-owned, disadvantaged, or veteran designations claimed.

The Metro Group's core capability is water chemistry and treatment services for correctional facilities, medical installations, and air traffic control centers. Recent representative work includes a $129,238 firm fixed-price purchase order from the Metropolitan Detention Center Brooklyn for chimney breeching services awarded March 2, 2026; a $99,496 definitive contract from the Federal Aviation Administration for water treatment chemicals and consulting at the Boston Air Route Traffic Control Center and Nashua, New Hampshire, running through March 1, 2029; and a series of quarterly water treatment services and supplies purchase orders to the Bureau of Prisons Federal Correctional Institution Berlin, each valued between $2,372 and $9,490, spanning 2022 through early 2024. The vendor's NAICS footprint centers on Water Supply and Irrigation Systems (18 awards), All Other Professional, Scientific, and Technical Services (10 awards), and All Other Miscellaneous Chemical Product and Preparation Manufacturing (7 awards), with top PSC codes in Utilities—Water (16 awards) and Maintenance/Repair of Water Purification and Sewage Treatment Equipment (6 awards).

Customer concentration is heavy with the Department of Justice Bureau of Prisons system. The top five funding entities account for 49% of awards by count and 45% by potential value, anchored by the Metropolitan Detention Center Brooklyn (13 awards, $270 thousand combined potential value) and the Federal Correctional Institution Berlin (6 awards, $21 thousand), with the Federal Medical Center Devens (4 awards, $94 thousand), the Department of the Navy (3 awards), and the Army Medical Command (3 awards, $60 thousand) completing the set. The Metro Group places task orders under the GSA Federal Supply Schedule GS10F8375B (3 task orders, $32 thousand combined potential value), a Bureau of Prisons indefinite delivery contract (3 task orders, $18 thousand), the GSA BMO Zone 1 vehicle (2 task orders), and a Navy indefinite delivery contract (2 task orders).

Recent activity has remained sparse and flat—two awards in 2021 and 2022, three in 2023, and four in 2024—with a combined potential value of $1.4 million across 59 total awards spanning four decades. The vendor subcontracts minimally, appearing on two sub-awards to Stampede Ventures, Inc. for facilities maintenance and heating/cooling system testing work awarded in March and May 2024. Across its prime portfolio, The Metro Group operates as a narrow-spectrum vendor focused on water treatment and facility maintenance for federal custodial and operational infrastructure, with no presence on government-wide contracts or major civilian-agency IDIQs.
