Mitchell Group, Inc. (The)

Mitchell Group, Inc., a minority-owned, veteran-owned small business headquartered in Washington, D.C., operates as a prime contractor delivering operational support, management consulting, program evaluation, and international development services to federal agencies, with 93% of recent awards as prime and the remainder as a subcontractor. The company holds SBA certifications as a Veteran-Owned Small Business and a Black American-owned business (certification expires October 11, 2028), competing across full-and-open and small-business set-aside vehicles.

Mitchell Group's customer concentration is heavily skewed toward health and international development agencies. The National Institute of Allergy and Infectious Diseases dominates the award count at 122 awards worth $185.3 million in combined potential value, reflecting Mitchell Group's decades-long specialization in managing research service centers and providing operational support for infectious disease research programs across West Africa. However, the US Agency for International Development Bureau for Management Office of the Assistant Administrator anchors the dollar concentration with 8 awards carrying $7.17 billion in combined potential value—a dramatic shift in scale driven by Mitchell Group's recent wins as an interim financial and procurement agent for the Millennium Challenge Corporation. USAID-Ethiopia contributes four awards valued at $23.3 million. The Department of Labor Office of the Assistant Secretary for Policy holds one award with $99 million ceiling value, and GSA Federal Acquisition Service represents three awards at $58.6 million combined potential value. These five customer buckets account for 97% of all potential value across the portfolio.

Mitchell Group's concrete capability set centers on Mali Service Center operations and related international research infrastructure management. Recent representative work includes a $45 million single-award Indefinite Delivery Contract with NIAID (awarded April 2025, expiring April 2030) for operation and management of the Mali Service Center in Bamako, Mali, under which Mitchell Group issues delivery orders for research program support, clinical research site operations, human resources management, financial and logistics administration, and community engagement services in support of NIAID's infectious disease research and medical programs. The company holds two multiple-award Blanket Purchase Agreements with the Millennium Challenge Corporation (each valued at $7.5 million through 2029) for interim procurement and financial agent services, fielding teams to support development and preparation phases of MCC compacts and threshold programs across multiple partner countries. Mitchell Group also holds a $99 million single-award BPA with the Department of Labor's Chief Evaluation Office (through September 2028) under the GSA Multiple Award Schedule for program evaluation, research support, and related services, from which a $7.4 million research support services call was issued by the Employment and Training Administration in September 2025. On a smaller scale, Mitchell Group delivered a $3.2 million delivery order from the Millennium Challenge Corporation (awarded October 2026) for international procurement consultant services under the GSA MAS, and operates a $11.3 million definitive contract with the US Mission in Ethiopia (awarded August 2023, running through August 2028) for operational support, management consulting, and program evaluation services, with SCI-reported activity growing from $77 thousand in FY2023 to $1.5 million in FY2025 across a growing FTE base.

Mitchell Group's award portfolio carries heavy concentration in infectious disease research and international development contexts. NAICS framing is split between All Other Professional, Scientific, and Technical Services (124 awards) and Administrative Management and General Management Consulting Services (79 awards), with PSC activity dominated by Support—Professional: Other (115 awards) and Support—Professional: Program Management/Support (26 awards). Vehicle positioning reflects the dominance of NIAID work: the Indefinite Delivery Contract HHSN272201700050I carries 68 task orders worth $29.4 million in combined potential value, and the Indefinite Delivery Contract HHSN272201200001I carries 33 task orders worth $2.6 million. The Multiple Award Schedule vehicle hosts 22 task orders valued at $119 million, driven by the large Labor and MCC commitments. USAID Monitoring and Evaluation work flows through 16 task orders worth $13 million.

Activity has remained stable year over year at eight to sixteen awards per year across 2022–2026, with a recompete cliff of six awards carrying $12.6 million in combined potential value completing within the next twenty-four months. Across SCI-reportable service contracts (a strict subset covering invoiced activity above the $150,000 threshold), Mitchell Group reported $9.3 million in total invoiced revenue from FY2022 through FY2025, with government-paid hourly rates on prime contracts ranging from $12.00 per hour at the 10th percentile to a median of $18.27 per hour and $47.38 per hour at the 90th percentile. SCI-documented FTE delivery fluctuated from 60.8 FTEs in FY2022 to a peak of 269 FTEs in FY2024, dropping to 143 FTEs in FY2025. The company self-performed all reported labor on SCI-captured prime contracts (zero sub-hours share), indicating a build-your-own-team delivery posture. As a subcontractor, Mitchell Group has delivered clinical research site operations, human resources management, and financial administration support to Canon USA, Inc., IT1 Source LLC, Golden Key Group LLC, Astrix Technology LLC, and Weems Design Studio, Inc. on NIAID and infectious disease research task orders, positioning the company as a specialized sub for complex international research operations when prime relationships demand it.

On the GSA Schedule labor side, Mitchell Group maintains 73 active labor categories spanning hourly rates from $53.27 to $243.37 per hour, covering roles from curriculum design specialists and PC/LAN specialists through program managers and program directors. Education requirements range from associate's degrees through master's degrees; no security-cleared positions are offered. This labor portfolio supports both the international development consulting and program evaluation work anchoring the Labor BPA and MCC vehicle work.
