About the company
RCS Services, LLC, a Service-Disabled Veteran-Owned Small Business and Veteran-Owned Small Business based in California, Maryland, operates as a subcontractor (85% of recent awards) and occasional prime contractor on atmospheric research, scientific air sampling, and specialized aviation support services for federal agencies. The company competes across full-and-open procurements and holds SBA certifications as a service-disabled veteran-owned small business and veteran-owned small business, both valid through November 2027.
RCS Services delivers specialized air sampling and flight support operations. As a prime, the vendor holds four recent purchase orders from the National Oceanic and Atmospheric Administration and the Drug Enforcement Administration, including a $59,400 NOAA atmospheric sampling services contract at Cape May running through September 2027, a $305 thousand DEA emergency charter expulsion services order completed in March 2026, and two NOAA atmospheric research air sampling survey flight contracts valued at $152,664 and $18,801 for New Jersey operations in 2024–2026. The company operates modified aircraft with Federal Aviation Administration approvals for atmospheric measurement missions and maintains specialized expertise in time-series environmental data collection.
Customer concentration is heavily weighted toward Department of the Navy Naval Air Systems Command Naval Air Warfare Center operations (17 awards), with secondary presence at National Aeronautics and Space Administration Goddard Space Center (5 awards), NOAA (3 awards, $231 thousand combined potential value), and DEA (1 award, $305 thousand). The Navy represents roughly 65% of the award count; NOAA and DEA together account for most quantified potential value in the prime footprint.
RCS Services sits as a subcontractor across three major primes: Reliance Test & Technology, LLC (multiple funding modifications for Atlantic Ranges and Targets air flight support services, spanning July 2024 through June 2025), KBR Wyle Services, LLC (Wallops Range operations and maintenance support with mobile instrumentation deployed worldwide including Norway, Kwajalein Atoll, Coquina North Carolina, Australia, and French Guiana), and Peraton Inc. (NASA Balloon Facility operations and management support in April and March 2026). The sub footprint centers on air flight support, range operations, and specialized instrumentation deployment.
Activity has declined year over year—15 awards in 2024, 7 in 2025, and 4 in 2026 year-to-date—though combined obligated dollars ($17.5 million) far exceed combined potential value ($536 thousand), indicating significant option exercises and modifications on standing sub agreements rather than new prime awards. One award (the September 2027 NOAA atmospheric sampling contract for $59 thousand) faces recompete within the next twenty-four months. The vendor's footprint reflects niche capability in airborne atmospheric research and flight operations rather than broad federal exposure.
