Rocksol Consulting Group, Inc.

Rocksol Consulting Group, Inc., a minority-owned civil engineering firm, operates as a federal prime contractor delivering construction inspection, project management, and engineering assessment services for federal transportation infrastructure, primarily under multiple Federal Highway Administration IDIQ vehicles with minimal subcontractor engagement. The firm is based in Thornton, Colorado, and competes on full-and-open basis across the FHWA's architect-engineer and construction management inspection support programs serving national parks, national forests, Bureau of Land Management lands, and federal transportation corridors throughout the western United States and Alaska.

Rocksol's customer footprint is exceptionally narrow: the Federal Highway Administration accounts for 312 of 330 total awards (98% of awards) and $382.5 million of the combined $418.8 million potential value (91%). The remaining activity splits among the General Services Administration ($27.8 million Federal Supply Schedule contract awarded September 1, 2026), the Bureau of Reclamation (5 awards, $7.6 million), and Forest Service R1-Northern Region (6 awards, $61 thousand). This concentration reflects Rocksol's established positioning as a specialized FHWA vendor rather than strategic diversification across federal customers.

Rocksol holds three major indefinite-delivery IDIQ vehicles anchoring its prime contract work. The 2019 Architect Engineer Construction Management Inspection Support IDIQ (ultimate completion February 14, 2027, or later depending on contract renewal) has generated 58 task orders valued at $26.4 million and is the highest-activity vehicle in the portfolio. A February 19, 2026 award for a $55 million IDIQ covering Alaska, Washington, Oregon, Idaho, Montana, and Wyoming runs through February 18, 2031. A third IDIQ held under the FHWA Central Federal Lands Highway Division Full Service Architect program carries a $60 million ceiling through May 30, 2030. On the GSA side, Rocksol holds a Federal Supply Schedule contract with a $27.8 million ceiling through August 31, 2031, with 38 active labor categories spanning construction inspector, staff engineer, and project manager roles priced from $84.77/hr to $287.27/hr. Recent representative task orders include a $794,386.56 delivery order for consultant project engineer services on the MT Prairie 2016(3) Milwaukee Bridge Resurfacing project (awarded September 16, 2026, completion January 30, 2028), a $1.788 million order for Gardner River High Bridge construction inspection at Yellowstone (April 22, 2026, completion February 14, 2028), and a $1.338 million order for pavement preservation services in New Mexico (May 8, 2025, completion January 4, 2027).

Activity has remained moderate but steady—22 awards in 2022, 18 in 2023, 22 in 2024, 29 in 2025, and 27 through September 2026. Thirty awards with ultimate completion dates inside the next twenty-four months face recompete exposure, combining to a potential value of $21.3 million and representing roughly 50% of the trailing twelve-month order volume. Rocksol operates 92% of its awards as prime contractor (303 of 330 total awards). Sub-award engagement is minimal: one sub contract under HDR Engineering (Colorado Blue Creek Canyon construction inspection, September 4, 2025) and approximately 25 grant sub-awards under Colorado Department of Transportation as prime grantee on state highway projects, reflecting secondary engagement in non-FHWA infrastructure delivery.

NAICS concentration runs heavily to 541330 (Engineering Services, 239 awards) and 541350 (Highway, Street, and Bridge Construction, 59 awards). Service Contract Inventory reporting shows negligible SCI-reported invoicing across FY2022–FY2025, with near-zero FTE attribution in the SCI dataset—a signal that Rocksol's work is either cost-reimbursable, firm-fixed-price delivery orders that do not trigger standard SCI reporting thresholds, or blended into parent FHWA task order vehicles where the contractor operates as a named sub-performer. The vendor's $126.9 million in obligated dollars across the full award set represents 30% of potential value, consistent with long-cycle infrastructure projects where funding is reserved but not yet drawn down.

Rocksol's federal positioning is singular and stable: a minority-owned specialist in FHWA architect-engineer and construction inspection services, operating exclusively on western national parks and public lands, with three significant IDIQ reservations and a steady cadence of task orders. The firm maintains no notable prime teaming relationships and subcontracts minimally, building delivery teams in-house across inspection, project engineering, and field office staffing roles. Competitive exposure is concentrated in FHWA recompetes and GSA Schedule price-competitive calls; the narrow customer base and vertical expertise carry both moat and vulnerability.
