About the company
Precision Measurement Engineering, Inc., a self-certified small disadvantaged business, manufactures water quality monitoring sensors and dissolved oxygen loggers and operates as a prime contractor (100% of recent awards) supplying specialized instrumentation to federal civilian agencies on full-and-open purchase orders. The company is a for-profit Subchapter S corporation based in Carlsbad, California, competing primarily under Total Small Business set-asides and sole-source awards rather than 8(a) or other categorical set-asides, with recent work ranging from $4,000 to $131,295 per purchase order.
Precision Measurement Engineering's customer concentration centers on interior and environmental monitoring agencies. The top five agencies by award count account for 61% of recent awards: the Department of the Interior's U.S. Geological Survey (17 awards, $671 thousand combined potential value) leads by both volume and dollars, followed by the National Oceanic and Atmospheric Administration (12 awards, $255 thousand), the Bureau of Reclamation (7 awards, $36 thousand), the Agricultural Research Service (3 awards, $16 thousand), and the Environmental Protection Agency (3 awards, $46 thousand). The dollar rankings diverge slightly — USGS and NOAA anchor the top two positions in both volume and value — but Fish and Wildlife Service Regional offices, the National Park Service, and EPA's Office of Research and Development carry material sole-source potential in the $54–$113 thousand range, driven by Precision Measurement Engineering's proprietary miniDOT dissolved oxygen/temperature loggers and miniPAR light sensors, which position the vendor as the sole source for specific water monitoring requirements. Representative work includes a $131,295 USGS purchase order (June 2025, Total Small Business set-aside) for 110 miniDOT loggers and anti-fouling kits for Chinook salmon research; a $60,085 sole-source NOAA award (September 2024) for miniDOT and miniPAR sensors for Great Lakes environmental monitoring; a $40,611 U.S. Pacific Fleet Forces purchase order (September 2025) for TCHAIN Interface Circuit components at John C. Stennis Space Center; and a $14,545 civilian agency purchase order (April 2026) for data logger inspection and recalibration in Ann Arbor, Michigan.
Activity has declined: five awards in 2022 to one award in 2026 (through the most recent award date in May). Sixty-nine awards total, with combined potential value of $1.8 million, suggest a vendor positioned in niche environmental instrumentation rather than high-volume federal supply. The company operates exclusively as a prime and carries no subcontract footprint. Primary NAICS concentration is Analytical Laboratory Instrument Manufacturing (39 awards), with secondary exposure in process-variable measuring devices, navigation systems, and instrument wholesaling, reflecting the core business of designing and manufacturing proprietary water-quality sensors for federal research, environmental monitoring, and aquatic ecosystem assessment.
