Normandeau Associates, Inc.

Normandeau Associates, Inc., a for-profit Subchapter S corporation headquartered in Bedford, New Hampshire, delivers environmental consulting, ecological monitoring, and biological sampling services to federal agencies as a prime contractor on 96% of recent awards and competes predominantly in full-and-open set-asides rather than under SBA designations. The vendor holds a $6 million small-business IDIQ with the Army Corps of Engineers New England District, a $1.9 million multiple-award BPA with the Engineer Research and Development Center, and a $1.4 million GSA Federal Supply Schedule contract covering 28 labor categories spanning field technicians through senior scientists at rates from $38.58 to $330.30 per hour.

Normandeau's customer footprint concentrates heavily on defense and interior agencies with distinct geographic splits. The top five customers by award count (51% of awards) include the Army Corps of Engineers New England District (10 awards, $8.2 million combined potential value), the Department of the Interior Bureau of Ocean Energy Management (9 awards, $20 million), the U.S. Pacific Fleet Forces (8 awards, $1 million), the National Park Service Midwest Region (6 awards, $371 thousand), and the Army Corps of Engineers Portland District (6 awards, $3 million). However, the top customer by potential value is the Army Corps of Engineers Walla Walla District with 6 awards carrying $62.6 million combined potential value—a concentration spike the award-count ranking does not surface. These five customers account for 95% of combined potential value across the portfolio. Normandeau's work spans dredged material suitability determinations, macroinvertebrate sampling, acoustic and aerial seabird surveys, bat monitoring, freshwater mussel survey and relocation, and disposal area ecological monitoring.

Recent contract awards include a May 2026 delivery order from the Army Corps of Engineers New England District for environmental services, sampling, and testing at Frenchboro Harbor (ceiling $437,690.75, completion November 2026), a June 2025 delivery order for dredged material suitability determination at St. Georges River, Maine ($104,734.40), and a March 2025 delivery order supporting the Disposal Area Monitoring System program ($798,433.88, completion July 2026). In the grant space, Normandeau received a cooperative agreement from the Department of the Interior Fish and Wildlife Service Region 4 in March 2026 for a Caribbean vulnerability assessment of 140 bird species exposed to offshore ocean use, running through March 2027. The vendor also acts as a sub-recipient on grants administered by the Wildlife Management Institute (NABat acoustic surveys, June 2026) and the Hudson River Foundation (biogenic rock reef monitoring plan, July 2025), and subcontracts to AECOM Technical Services on freshwater mussel collection services for the Lower Neponset River remedial action.

Activity has grown modestly: one award in 2021, rising to six in 2024 and eight in 2025, with five awards recorded in 2026 through mid-year. Nine awards (combined potential value $965 thousand) complete in the next twenty-four months and face recompete exposure. The vendor's portfolio skews toward environmental consulting services (41 awards) and research and development in physical, engineering, and life sciences (14 awards), with secondary work in testing laboratories (6 awards). Across the vendor's primary IDIQ and parent BPAs, environmental monitoring and sampling dominate; the GSA Schedule work includes the full spectrum of Normandeau's labor portfolio from field technicians through senior principal scientists, with no security-cleared roles offered. Service Contract Inventory records capture minimal federal services activity (0.3 FTEs in FY2022), reflecting that Normandeau's reported work—field and laboratory services, macroinvertebrate sampling, ecological surveys—sits largely outside SCI thresholds or in goods and product categories SCI does not cover; the SCI data do not represent the vendor's federal services scale.

Normandeau Associates is a science-based environmental consulting firm that has completed hundreds of projects nationwide that require environmental assessments, impact statements, and specialized environmental studies for many Federal and state agencies.
