About the company
Riverside Research Institute, a New York-based nonprofit research and engineering organization, delivers specialized engineering, research and development, and technical support services across defense and national security domains as a prime contractor on full-and-open federal contracts, with no set-aside posture. The institute holds 851 prime awards (100% of recent activity) worth a combined $48.17 billion in potential value across 42 federal customer agencies, competing predominantly through large indefinite delivery vehicles and GSA Schedules rather than through small-business set-asides. Place of performance spans New York, Virginia, California, and Arlington, with administrative oversight from the New York headquarters.
Customer concentration is extreme and Air Force-dominant. The Department of the Air Force and its subordinate commands account for 98% of the institute's combined potential value — $46.03 billion across 168 awards — overwhelmingly anchoring the portfolio. The Air Force Headquarters Air Staff National Air and Space Intelligence Center (173 awards, $197.4 million), the Air Force Defense Finance and Accounting Service (15 awards, $578.1 million), Air Force Materiel Command Research Laboratory (28 awards, $325.3 million), and Warner Robins Air Logistics Complex (14 awards, $212.6 million) round out the top Air Force customer set. The remaining 42 agencies — Army, DOD Missile Defense Agency, Defense Intelligence Agency, and others — collectively represent only 2% of the portfolio's dollar value. Recent named work includes a $27.6 million cost-plus-fixed-fee definitive contract from Air Force Space Command (awarded August 2023) for COBRA DANE radar sustainment and modernization with L Stuart, Inc. providing RF and microwave component engineering; a $137 million delivery order from the Office of the Secretary of Defense (July 2024) for engineering and technical support to the Defense Innovation Unit's AI and machine learning portfolio, with Cambrio LLC and Graytail Consulting LLC providing subject matter expert support; and multiple $3–$5.9 million delivery orders from Warner Robins Air Logistics Complex for special projects engineering support on classified Air Force programs.
The institute's parent vehicles are predominantly GSA-anchored. The Professional Services Schedule (MAS) supports 234 task orders worth $830.7 million; Federal Supply Schedule GS35F0185J carries 34 task orders valued at $85.9 million. The institute also holds multiple Air Force indefinite delivery contracts — Indefinite Delivery Contract MDA90803A0050 (42 task orders), F3060285C0296 (23 task orders), and F1962889D0035 (22 task orders) — though specific ceiling values for most Air Force IDIQs are not disclosed in the source. The portfolio's top NAICS concentration sits in Research and Development in the Physical, Engineering, and Life Sciences (234 awards), with secondary strength in Engineering Services (53 awards) and Computer Systems Design Services (36 awards). PSC distribution reflects the R&D-heavy profile: Support–Professional Engineering/Technical (179 awards), R&D–Defense Other Advanced Development (127 awards), and Support–Professional Other (97 awards).
Activity has been sparse in the recent snapshot. Only thirteen awards have been issued in the past five years (2022–2026), compared to the institute's cumulative 855 total awards dating to 1980, suggesting the source captures a moving window rather than the full historical footprint. Seven awards reach ultimate completion within the next twenty-four months, carrying a combined potential value of $60.2 million and representing recompete exposure for that period. Riverside's posture as a nearly pure prime (851 prime, 4 sub) reflects a business model built around holding and executing large vehicle contracts directly rather than feeding through other primes; recent sub-award activity names Lockheed Martin as a prime on the SAFEDOCS program (March and October 2024).
SCI-reported service-contract invoicing tells a volatile story. The institute invoiced $25.8 million across eight prime service contracts captured in the reporting threshold (FY2022–FY2025), with FY2024 representing the peak at $16.3 million across 26.0 FTEs, followed by a sharp drop to zero FTEs in FY2025. Government-paid hourly rates on federal services contracts ranged from a 10th-percentile floor of $156.12/hr to a median of $176.40/hr and a 90th-percentile ceiling of $419.40/hr. The institute self-performed all SCI-reportable labor across prime contracts with zero subcontractor hours reported, indicating direct delivery of engineering and technical staff. GSA Schedule labor rates span thirty-nine categories from $62.24/hr (organizational support, high school education) to $408.91/hr (consulting IT/software development specialist, PhD, fifteen years experience), with no security-cleared labor categories offered. The rate spectrum reflects a nonclassified posture at the labor-category level, though classified task work dominates the Air Force order book by mission content.
The institute holds no formal SBA designations and competes full-and-open across all recent awards named in the source. It operates as a single tax-exempt corporate entity with a subsidiary bearing the same name, Riverside Research Institute (tax-exempt nonprofit). The narrow sub footprint (4 total sub awards in 855 records) and zero subcontractor hours reported in SCI suggest that the institute builds most delivery teams internally rather than through teaming with subordinate contractors, positioning it as a vertically integrated engineering and research shop rather than a systems integrator or prime-contractor hub.
