Parish Forensics LLC

Parish Forensics LLC, a veteran-owned small business based in Broussard, Louisiana, provides autopsy and morgue services to the Federal Bureau of Prisons as a prime contractor exclusively under small-business set-asides. The firm operates as a partnership or limited liability partnership and competes entirely within its single customer agency with no subcontracting footprint.

Parish Forensics has a concentrated, narrow federal customer base. The Department of Justice Bureau of Prisons Federal Correctional Complex Oakdale accounts for 100% of its recent awards — six purchase orders totaling $24 thousand combined potential value across the period from May 2023 through September 2026. Each autopsy and morgue service purchase order carries a ceiling value of $3,750 to $4,000 and addresses a specific deceased inmate case; representative work includes autopsy and morgue services for inmates Rickie Friar (June 2024, $4,000), Edwin Johnson (June 2024, $4,000), Roland Cardenas (April 2024, $3,750), and Ray Anthony Simmons (May 2023, $4,000). The most recent award, dated September 30, 2026, is a Total Small Business set-aside purchase order; prior awards carry no set-aside designation. Performance occurs at Broussard, Louisiana and Amelia Court House, Virginia.

Activity trajectory is intermittent and low-volume. The firm received one award in 2023, three in 2024, and two in 2026, reflecting reactive purchase orders tied to individual inmate deaths rather than standing contracts or IDIQs. All awards are obligated in full — combined potential value and combined obligated dollars both equal $24 thousand. Parish Forensics operates with no parent contract vehicles, no teaming relationships, and no identified sub-award activity. Classification sits under NAICS Testing Laboratories and Services and PSC Reference Laboratory Testing.
