About Quality Associates, Inc.

Quality Associates, Inc., doing business as Q A I, is a subsidiary of foreign-owned Konica Minolta Business Solutions U.S.A., Inc. that supplies microfilm and microfiche scanning hardware, document digitization services, and records-management software to federal agencies as a prime contractor (98% of recent awards) across full-and-open federal procurements without set-aside designations. Headquartered in Fulton, Maryland, Q A I operates on the GSA Multiple Award Schedule with a $475 thousand ceiling through October 2027 and competes predominantly for equipment sales and maintenance orders under task-order vehicles rather than as a subcontractor.

Q A I's footprint is concentrated in civilian agency document and records management. The top five customer agencies by potential value account for 27% of combined potential across all awards, anchored by the Department of Health and Human Services National Institutes of Health ($19.2 million across 10 awards), HHS Food and Drug Administration ($16.3 million across 11 awards), and NIH's National Institute of Environmental Health Sciences ($8.8 million across 11 awards). By award count, the Social Security Administration dominates with 35 awards totaling $5.4 million in potential value, followed by the Federal Election Commission (24 awards, $364 thousand), the Department of Justice Civil Rights Division (19 awards, $200 thousand), and the National Archives and Records Administration (17 awards, $1.5 million). Activity across the past five years has remained relatively flat, with ten to eleven awards per year in 2022 through 2025 and three awards in 2026 year-to-date; only $411 thousand in combined potential value faces completion and recompete inside the next twenty-four months.

Q A I's primary vehicle is "The Office Imaging and Document Solution," which carries 235 task orders worth $59.8 million in combined potential value—the dominant parent vehicle across Q A I's footprint. The GSA Multiple Award Schedule supplies 221 task orders valued at $14.7 million. Recent delivery orders exemplify Q A I's hardware and maintenance portfolio: a $78,450 order from the Shared Services Center (May 2026) for microfilm and microfiche scanners; a $337,599.94 order from the Defense Finance and Accounting Service (April 2025) for microfiche scanner maintenance and software support through March 2028; a $207,721.74 order from the New Mexico Region (August 2025) for document-capture software base year and four option years through August 2030; a $45,840.94 order from the Army Combat Capabilities Development Command Chemical Biological Center (February 2026) for a Mekel Mach Minifiche scanner system; and a $70,750.08 order from the Social Security Administration (September 2025) for maintenance on Mekel MACHX microfilm roll scanners. The source also reflects recurring software-license-renewal orders for Kofax document-processing software from the Federal Election Commission, Department of Justice Civil Rights Division, and the Food and Drug Administration, as well as maintenance renewals for Crowley Mekel Technology Quantum Process software at the Social Security Administration.

Q A I's labor portfolio on the GSA Schedule spans 93 categories with hourly rates from $22.12 (Document Conversion Clerk, high school education, zero years' experience) through $308.01 (Senior Developer, bachelor's degree, three years' experience). Mid-range positions include Systems Analyst at $58.85 per hour and Project Manager at $81.21 per hour; no security-cleared roles are offered. Service Contract Inventory data shows minimal SCI-reportable activity—one SCI record as a named subcontractor in FY2022 with 2.4 FTEs—indicating that Q A I's federal services footprint is dominated by equipment sales and short-term maintenance orders falling below or outside the SCI $150 thousand reporting threshold.

Q A I operates primarily as a prime contractor but subcontracts to larger systems integrators on selected work. Named subcontracting relationships include Salient CRGT, Inc. (five sub awards since June 2024 for Enterprise Support Services and Endpoint Technology task orders supporting the EPA), CGI Federal Inc. (two sub awards in 2024 for digital asset management solution deliverables), Guidehouse Inc. (one sub award in March 2026 for grants program solutions and IT support services with HHS Administration for Children and Families), and Goldschmitt and Associates LLC (one 2021 sub award for records-management digitization services). Across the awards, Q A I is characterized as frequently leveraging subcontractors such as CGI Federal, IBM, and Science Applications International Corporation to support contract deliverables, though the sub-award volume (12 awards, or 2% of total) reflects a predominantly prime-focused delivery model.
