Moore Ruble Yudell

Moore Ruble Yudell Architects & Planners, based in Santa Monica, California, is a for-profit architectural and engineering services firm competing on a full-and-open basis as a prime contractor (100% of awards) exclusively with the Department of State's Bureau of Overseas Building Operations. The firm holds no SBA designations and competes entirely outside set-aside categories, with the exception of a single multiple-award IDIQ awarded in 2025 carrying a partial small-business set-aside.

Moore Ruble Yudell's work centers on worldwide architectural and engineering support for U.S. diplomatic facilities. The firm's capability portfolio spans facility assessments, engineering studies, master planning, design development, construction specifications, cost estimating, project management, and construction management across architecture, landscape design, interior design, mechanical and electrical engineering, structural engineering, and security disciplines. Representative recent work includes a $621,636 delivery order for parking garage structural improvement at the U.S. Consulate in Ciudad Juarez, Mexico (awarded September 2024, completion September 2027); a $493,905 architectural support services delivery order for a historic landscape project at the Consul General Residence in Cape Town, South Africa (awarded August 2023, completion August 2025); and a $441,925 delivery order for PRAIA NEC scheduling support services (awarded September 2026, completion September 2029). The firm also performs cultural heritage surveys, technical design reviews of architectural stone, and remote infrastructure monitoring at overseas diplomatic compounds.

Customer concentration is extreme: the Bureau of Overseas Building Operations accounts for 44 of 51 total awards and $200.3 million of $209.2 million combined potential value. The remaining five Department of State awards carry minimal dollar magnitude. Moore Ruble Yudell operates under two primary vehicle structures: the Worldwide AE Support Services IDIQs (multiple-award indefinite-delivery contracts with a $50 million ceiling), which anchor eight task orders valued at $4.7 million, and two predecessor indefinite-delivery contracts (2015–2020 and SAQMMA08D0089) carrying 19 and 11 task orders respectively. The firm also holds a newer multiple-award IDIQ awarded in August 2025 with a $100,000 ceiling carrying a partial small-business set-aside designation.

Activity has remained flat at two awards per year for the past five years. Only three awards totaling $1 million in combined potential value reach ultimate completion within the next twenty-four months, meaning recompete exposure in that window is minimal. The firm's award portfolio spans from 1995 to the present, with $86.6 million obligated against a $209.2 million combined potential value across all awards.
