About SMS Research & Marketing Services Inc.
SMS Research & Marketing Services Inc., doing business as SMS Research, is a minority-owned, Asian-Pacific American-owned consulting firm that delivers Native Hawaiian organization policy consultation and Section 106 cultural resource coordination services to federal agencies as a prime contractor (67% of recent awards) and subcontractor. The vendor operates as a for-profit corporate entity with no formal SBA set-aside certifications; recent prime awards carry no set-aside designations and compete full-and-open.
SMS Research's recent footprint is narrow and concentrated with a single dominant customer. The Department of Transportation Immediate Office of the Secretary of Transportation accounts for 100% of the vendor's prime award potential value ($111 thousand across two purchase orders). The two USDOT awards comprise Native Hawaiian Organization policy consultation services: a $60,835 firm-fixed-price purchase order issued March 31, 2023, to facilitate Section 106 consultations with Native Hawaiian organizations on behalf of the Office of Tribal Government (ultimate completion April 21, 2024), and a $49,735 purchase order issued May 2, 2024, to ratify an unauthorized commitment for USDOT Native Hawaiian Organization policy consultation services (ultimate completion January 24, 2025). A third award, subcontracted from Nakupuna Consulting LLC and awarded February 1, 2023, involved public outreach and communications plan development, with SMS Research providing survey distribution and results reporting.
Activity is minimal and declining — two prime awards in 2023, one in 2024 — with combined potential value of $111 thousand and actual obligations totaling $162 thousand, indicating funding overages relative to ceiling. The vendor has worked with two federal agencies, the Department of Transportation and the Department of the Navy Installations Command, with no named parent vehicles or standing IDIQs in the source data. As a subcontractor, SMS Research performs communications and outreach work under Nakupuna Consulting LLC.
