Ruchman And Associates, Inc.

Ruchman And Associates, Inc., a small business prime contractor based in Nottingham, Maryland, delivers federal professional services across investigative support, visitor and crowd management, community outreach, and administrative staffing to civilian agencies and law enforcement, competing primarily under Total Small Business set-asides and full-and-open procurements on IDIQ and GSA Schedule vehicles.

The company operates as a prime on 537 of its 539 total awards (100% prime split), with a portfolio anchored in two high-value IDIQs recently awarded by GSA in December 2024: the OASIS+ Total Small Business Set-Aside IDIQ and the OASIS+ Unrestricted IDIQ, each carrying a multi-billion-dollar ceiling through December 2029. Ruchman's award footprint spans 46 distinct federal customer agencies with combined potential value of $3.75 billion. The Department of Justice's Drug Enforcement Administration dominates by dollars ($1.5 billion across 23 awards, 40% of combined potential value), anchored by a $48.9 million Multiple Award Schedule delivery order for financial investigator support services running through March 2028 with derived blended rates around $71/hr in FY2024. The Department of Justice Federal Bureau of Investigation Headquarters Division accounts for $788.4 million in potential value (21% of total) across three awards. GSA Federal Acquisition Service, the Department of the Treasury's Bureau of Engraving and Printing, and HHS Office of the Assistant Secretary for Administration round out the top five customers by dollars. By award count, the Department of State leads with 162 awards (primarily low-dollar administrative work), followed by State Bureau of Administration with 32 awards; however, these represent only 11% of combined potential value, signaling many small orders against fewer high-value contracts.

The vendor's capability portfolio centers on professional services delivery: investigative and financial support to federal law enforcement (the $650.25 million Asset Forfeiture Investigation Services 2 IDIQ from Justice Management Division, active through April 2028, supporting asset forfeiture work across twelve federal agencies with approximately 475 FTE capacity); visitor center and crowd management operations (a $7.64 million Total Small Business five-year contract with the Bureau of Engraving and Printing starting February 2026 for tour operations at the District Currency Facility, managing approximately 230,000 annual visitors); and community outreach and administrative staffing across civilian agencies. Recent named examples include an $18.3 million total small business definitive labor-hour contract with DOD OIG's Defense Criminal Investigative Service (awarded June 2, 2025, running through September 2028) for forfeiture-related investigative support in Alexandria, Virginia; a $19.64 million total small business delivery order under the same AFISS2 vehicle for financial investigative and support services to DCIS (awarded June 2, 2025, through September 2028); and $2.25 million in prior Smithsonian Institution crowd management contracts (completed 2021–2023), followed by a current $1.16 million Smithsonian services and staffing contract running through January 2027.

Activity volume has been volatile over the past five years (1 award in 2022, 5 in 2023, 3 in 2024, 3 in 2025, 1 in 2026 to date), reflecting the portfolio's concentration in large IDIQs and longer-term delivery orders rather than transactional awards. Two awards with combined potential value of $50 million face ultimate completion inside the next twenty-four months, representing moderate recompete exposure. The vendor holds positions on four significant parent vehicles: the OASIS+ Total Small Business and OASIS+ Unrestricted multiple-award IDIQs (GSA FAS, each with a multi-billion-dollar ceiling through December 2029); the Asset Forfeiture Investigation Services 2 indefinite delivery contract (DOJ Justice Management Division, $650.25 million through April 2028, supporting multiple federal agencies); and a single-award Blanket Purchase Agreement with the DEA's Multiple Award Schedule for community outreach services (ceiling $33.1 million, expired September 2024).

SCI-reported federal service contract invoicing totaled $28.8 million across FY2022–FY2024, with FY2023 marking the peak at $12.1 million across 129 contract-level FTEs, declining to $11.9 million and 90 FTEs in FY2024. The SCI dataset captures only contracts above the $150,000 threshold and does not reflect goods, micro-purchases, or non-federal revenue; it represents a partial view of the vendor's federal services footprint. Across SCI-reportable prime contracts, government-paid hourly rates ranged from $33.49/hr at the 10th percentile to $233.72/hr at the 90th percentile, with a median of $42.89/hr, reflecting a mix of administrative and professional labor. The vendor's active GSA Schedule portfolio spans 119 labor categories, priced from $25.23/hr for entry-level web technician roles through $252.18/hr for senior management consultant positions with master's degrees and ten years' experience. On SCI-reportable prime contracts, Ruchman subcontracted approximately 6% of total contractor hours across an average engagement, naming four distinct subcontractors across the dataset; the vendor operates primarily as a direct-delivery prime rather than as a subcontractor itself (2 sub awards in the full portfolio of 539). The firm has held one sub award as of October 2024 under Forfeiture Support Associates LLC for FY2023 OCDETF work.
