About Edward Otter, Inc.
Edward Otter, Inc., doing business as Otter, is a self-certified small disadvantaged business based in Lewes, Delaware that provides archaeological investigation, archival research, and cultural resource assessment services to the U.S. Department of Agriculture's Natural Resources Conservation Service (NRCS) exclusively as a prime contractor. Otter operates as a Subchapter S Corporation and competes entirely in full-and-open procurements with no set-aside category recurrence across its footprint; one historical award carried a total small business set-aside designation, but the vendor's current and preponderance of work flows through non-set-aside BPA calls.
Otter's capability portfolio is tightly specialized in cultural resources compliance work supporting conservation programs. The vendor conducts Phase 1B archaeological field investigations, shovel testing, archival reviews, and cultural resource evaluations on private lands in Delaware to satisfy federal statutory obligations under the NRCS's Environmental Quality Incentives Program (EQIP), Agricultural Management Assistance (AMA), and Agricultural Conservation Easement Program-Wetlands Reserve Easements (ACEP-WRE). Recent work includes a $33,000 February 2026 field investigation call for conservation projects in Delaware, a $16,800 July 2025 cultural resources research call supporting a Delaware moratorium approval, and a $8,800 June 2023 archaeological investigation call. Individual call orders under the parent BPA range from $1,400 to $33,000.
Customer concentration is extreme: the NRCS Northeast Region accounts for 28 of 29 awards and the full $608 thousand combined potential value across Otter's federal footprint. Otter holds a single-award BPA (12FPC422A0003) with the NRCS Northeast Region valued at $400,000, with a completion date of June 9, 2027. Twenty-three task orders have been issued against this vehicle, generating $162 thousand in combined potential value. Activity has declined from seven awards annually in 2022-2023 to two awards in 2026; over four years, the vendor has obligated $205 thousand against $608 thousand in combined potential value (34% drawdown rate). Only one award carrying a potential value of $3 thousand faces ultimate completion inside the next twenty-four months, presenting minimal recompete exposure. Otter does not operate as a subcontractor and holds no participation on government-wide vehicles, IDIQs, or multi-agency contract platforms.
