RCH Consulting LLC

RCH Consulting LLC, a service-disabled veteran-owned small business and partnership based in Madison, Alabama, provides law enforcement training instruction and explosives specialist consulting to the Bureau of Alcohol, Tobacco, Firearms and Explosives exclusively as a prime contractor operating entirely under small-business set-asides.

The vendor's footprint is singular and focused. All 63 awards in the source span a single customer—the ATF—with combined potential value of $820 thousand and actual obligation of $320 thousand (39% of potential). RCH Consulting competes 100% under total small business set-asides and holds no subcontract positions. The vendor operates from Madison, Alabama and, most recently as of May 2026, holds a five-year multiple-award Blanket Purchase Agreement with the ATF's National Center for Explosives Training and Research, with a $500,000 ceiling and ordering periods extending through May 2031. The BPA covers training instructor and program support specialist services—specifically Explosives Specialist (Law Enforcement/Industry Operations Instructor), Fire and Arson Specialist (Law Enforcement Instructor/Program Technical Specialist), Exercise Support Specialist, Technical Operations Specialist, and Program Support Specialist roles—with a per-call transaction cap of $15,000 and daily labor-category rates for both full-day and half-day instruction.

Prior to the 2026 BPA establishment, RCH Consulting issued task orders under the original ATF multiple-award Blanket Purchase Agreement (15A00021AAQA00175), initially awarded March 22, 2021, and running through March 21, 2026. From that earlier vehicle, RCH Consulting executed 60 task orders valued at $320 thousand combined. Concrete recent examples include a $6,000 firm-fixed-price BPA call issued June 1, 2026 for instructor services with ultimate completion June 11, 2026; a $6,000 call issued April 26, 2026 for instructor services completing May 8, 2026; and a $6,000 call issued January 5, 2026 for instructor services completing January 15, 2026. Call values across the BPA footprint have ranged from $550 to $10,000, with instructor services and contract specialist/explosives specialist support splitting the scope. The earlier BPA also supported Professional Basic Instructor Techniques (PBIT) and Advanced Professional Instructor Techniques (APBIT) course delivery. Work is performed in Madison, Alabama, with domestic and international travel assignments expected under the 2026 BPA for periods lasting 15 to 30 days.

Activity declined year over year through 2025 — sixteen awards in 2022 and 2024, then fourteen in 2023 and eleven in 2025 — before dropping to four awards through June 2026, reflecting transition from the expiring 2021 BPA to the newly awarded 2026 vehicle. RCH Consulting competes as a 100% prime vendor with no subcontract footprint. The vendor's capability portfolio, grounded in four years of ATF work, centers on law enforcement explosives instruction, instructor training methodologies (PBIT and APBIT), exercise facilitation, and regulatory compliance support for federal law enforcement agencies focused on explosives, firearms, and arson investigations.
