SES Inc.

SES Inc., a for-profit Subchapter S corporation based in Lenexa, Kansas, operates as a federal prime contractor delivering environmental consulting, geographic information systems, and data collection services to USDA and EPA under full-and-open competition with no set-aside posture. The vendor does not hold SDVOSB, 8(a), HUBZone, WOSB, or other SBA certifications, competing across all available vendors. SES Inc. operates entirely as a prime (100% of recent awards); the company does not subcontract significantly to other federal primes, though it does engage subcontractors on its own delivery teams.

SES Inc.'s customer base concentrates on USDA natural resource programs. The USDA National Resources Conservation Service Central Region accounts for 27 awards (64% of recent award count coverage), with $10.8 million combined potential value; the Environmental Protection Agency Region 7 places 10 awards ($2.6 million), and the USDA Natural Resources Conservation Service Western Region contributes 7 awards ($2.6 million). By potential value, the GSA Federal Acquisition Service dominates with $32.3 million across two awards (the $29.9 million MAS contract ceiling and subordinate delivery orders), followed by NRCS Central Region, the USDA Agricultural Marketing Service Science and Technology Program, APHIS Veterinary Services, and EPA Region 7.

SES Inc. holds a $29.9 million Multiple Award Schedule contract with GSA's Federal Acquisition Service (awarded April 12, 2022, expiring April 11, 2027) covering management consulting, environmental consulting, GIS services, and environmental remediation. The MAS labor portfolio spans eight categories from Editor ($65.72/hr) through Subject Matter Expert ($160.11/hr), with all positions requiring a bachelor's degree minimum and no security-cleared roles offered. Senior positions (Senior Consultant, Senior Environmental Scientist, Subject Matter Expert) are priced at $140.90 to $160.11 per hour and require 10 to 15 years of experience. Recent delivery orders under this schedule reflect active use by USDA Central Region for agricultural and environmental data collection: a $3.008 million National Resources Inventory and Local Data Survey Instrument data collection order for South Dakota (September 30, 2024, through September 29, 2029), a $1.343 million grazing land data collection task for Nebraska (March 15, 2024, through March 14, 2029), a $1.064 million Natural Resources Inventory order for Oklahoma (April 1, 2024, through March 31, 2029), a $675,250 grazing land field study order for Kansas (July 1, 2023, through June 30, 2028), and a $442,175 grazing land segments data collection order for Minnesota (June 16, 2025, through June 15, 2030). SES Inc. also holds several smaller-value IDCs and BPAs with EPA Region 7 and NRCS offices in Western states, with 11 task orders under an indefinite delivery contract and 3 orders under a NRCS Utah soil and rangeland management vehicle.

Capability portfolio centers on National Resources Inventory field data collection, grazing land assessment, nutrient management planning, and training program development for agricultural and conservation agencies. Representative prime work includes a $2.573 million definitive contract with APHIS Veterinary Services (September 27, 2023, through September 28, 2028) for National VS Training and Exercise Program implementation and process review, and a $1.086 million delivery order with USDA for regulatory activity support in compliance, enforcement, accreditation, and data analysis (September 30, 2026, through September 29, 2027).

SCI-reported invoiced revenue totaled $7.5 million across FY2022–FY2025 ($1.8 million in FY2022, $1.8 million in FY2023, $2 million in FY2024, and $1.9 million in FY2025), with FTE delivery averaging 7.6 FTEs across those years (4.7 FTEs in FY2025, reflecting a decline in SCI-reportable activity volume). On federal services contracts captured in SCI, median government-paid rates ran around $153.50 per hour, with senior labor pricing extending to $354.15 per hour at the 90th percentile. Across SCI-reportable prime contracts, named subcontractors account for an average of 45% of total contractor hours; SES Inc. reported 14 named subcontractors across the SCI dataset, indicating a mixed delivery model in which the vendor performs substantial work in-house while leveraging subs for specialized technical or field labor on data collection and field study contracts.

Award velocity has declined: four awards in 2024 and only one in 2025, with two awards in the first two weeks of 2026. Four awards (combined potential value $5.1 million) reach ultimate completion within the next twenty-four months, presenting recompete opportunity in the NRCS Central Region and EPA Region 7 customer base. The vendor's SAM registration dates to 2002, indicating sustained federal contracting experience in agricultural and environmental consulting over two decades.
