Morales & Associates LLC

Morales & Associates LLC, a self-certified small disadvantaged business based in Ventura, California, operates as a prime contractor delivering Equal Employment Opportunity investigative services and harassment investigations to federal agencies, with 100% of its recent award footprint in prime positions and no subcontract exposure. The firm specializes in civil rights compliance investigations, EEO case management, and employment-relations investigative services delivered on a firm-fixed-price basis across dozens of federal agencies since 1999.

Morales & Associates holds a five-year, $5.5 million single-award Blanket Purchase Agreement with the U.S. Department of Agriculture's Office of the Assistant Secretary for Civil Rights, established in July 2023 and running through July 2028 under the GSA Schedule for Human Resources & Equal Employment Opportunity Services. Against this master BPA, the vendor has received multiple task orders ranging from $21.5 thousand to $202.6 thousand for EEO investigations, harassment investigations, and civil rights compliance work. Representative prime awards include a $202.6 thousand BPA call from USDA OASCR for EEO support services and investigations effective through February 2027, a $98.4 thousand BPA call from the same office for harassment and discrimination investigations, and a $22 thousand purchase order from the Equal Employment Opportunity Commission for harassment investigation services awarded in May 2026. The vendor also carries a $70 thousand task order from USDA OASCR for EEO investigations and a $136.8 thousand task order from the same agency for 46 EEO investigation cases under the GSA Schedule vehicle.

Customer concentration splits between two distinct ranking profiles. By award count, the Department of the Interior Fish and Wildlife Service Region 9 Headquarters dominates with 115 awards valued at $517 thousand, followed by National Park Service National Office (35 awards, $119 thousand) and Fish and Wildlife Service Region 4 (33 awards, $680 thousand) — these three Interior components alone account for 40% of recent awards but only a small fraction of the dollar value. By potential value, the Department of Agriculture Assistant Secretary for Civil Rights anchors the portfolio with 11 awards totaling $6.4 million, the Department of Veterans Affairs Strategic Acquisition Center Frederick carries five awards valued at $5.4 million, and VA Headquarters holds four awards worth $1.5 million. These top-three customers by dollars represent 51% of combined potential value, whereas the Interior-dominated count reflects high-volume, low-dollar administrative and background investigation work routed through GSA Schedule task orders.

The vendor's primary vehicle is the GSA Schedule for Human Resources & Equal Employment Opportunity Services, from which 467 task orders have been placed carrying $13 million in combined potential value. Four additional BPAs and one indefinite-delivery contract collectively account for roughly $119 thousand in combined potential value. Award activity has been flat at low levels — three awards in 2019, three in 2020, three in 2023, three in 2024, and two awarded through May 2026 — indicating a mature, stable customer base rather than growth trajectory. Only two awards (combined potential value $225 thousand) complete within the next twenty-four months, suggesting minimal near-term recompete exposure. The vendor's work spans 39 distinct federal agencies, but the top five agencies by potential value account for the majority of dollar concentration, with USDA civil rights and VA programs anchoring current activity.
