About the company

Molecular Epidemiology Inc., a woman-owned small business headquartered in Lake Forest Park, Washington, operates as a 100% prime contractor delivering microbiological analysis, whole genome sequencing, pathogen tracking, and food safety testing services to the federal government. The vendor competes full-and-open (no set-asides) and holds three subsidiary entities: Nautilus Environmental Inc., Analytical Services Inc., and Institute For Environmental Health Inc., each organized as a for-profit Subchapter S corporation.

Molecular Epidemiology Inc. is overwhelmingly concentrated with a single customer. The Food and Drug Administration accounts for 51 of 54 awards (94% by count) and $56.1 million of the $56.3 million combined potential value (100% of dollars), with customer concentration driven by two large single-award IDIQs: a $10 million contract awarded May 24, 2022 (ultimate completion May 23, 2027) for microbiological analysis and whole genome sequencing of FDA-regulated foods, agricultural water, and cosmetics, and a $750,000 contract awarded September 26, 2023 (ultimate completion September 27, 2028) for sampling and analysis services to develop analytical survey capabilities for chemical quantities in foods, dietary supplements, and cosmetics. The remaining three awards span the Department of Agriculture Agricultural Research Service ($91,900 purchase order for analysis of human serum samples for choline, carnitine, and TMAO concentrations under the USDA Meat and Pattern Study), the Department of the Army Corps of Engineers Engineering District Seattle, and Environmental Protection Agency Region 7.

The vendor issues task orders under five named IDIQs: contract 75F40118D10028 carries 12 task orders ($3.6 million combined potential value); contract HHSF223201310055I carries 11 task orders ($3.6 million); contract 75F40122D00017 carries 9 task orders ($830,000); contract HHSF223200910005I carries 6 task orders ($5.8 million); and contract 75F40123D00040 carries 4 task orders ($414,000). Work centers on pathogen detection and quantification (Salmonella, Shiga toxin-producing E. coli, Listeria, Cyclospora cayetanensis, Norovirus) across food matrices including seafood, lettuce, shrimp, infant formula and food, milk, and agricultural water, with ISO/IEC 17025 accreditation required throughout performance.

Recent representative task orders include a $177,054 delivery order awarded September 1, 2026 for microbial survey of FDA-regulated foods and agricultural water (ultimate completion September 23, 2027); a $24,700 delivery order awarded September 28, 2026 for sampling and toxic element analyses of foods (ultimate completion September 27, 2028); a $225,600 delivery order awarded September 29, 2023 for infant food testing; a $249,839 delivery order awarded August 10, 2023 for shrimp sample collection; and a $125,975 delivery order awarded November 21, 2022 for lettuce analysis for STEC and Salmonella under the $10 million microbiological IDIQ.

Award activity has declined materially. The vendor received six awards in 2022, four each in 2023 and 2024, two in 2025, and two in 2026. Only three awards reach ultimate completion inside the next twenty-four months, representing combined potential value of $302,000 — minimal recompete exposure. The vendor operates as a pure prime contractor with no subcontract work. Molecular Epidemiology Inc. maintains primary places of performance in Lake Forest Park, Washington and multiple Maryland locations including Silver Spring, Beltsville, and Berwyn Heights, with work classified primarily under NAICS 511712 (Testing Laboratories and Services) and PSC codes spanning special studies and analysis across medical, health, recreation, and chemical/biological domains.
