SRK Consulting US Inc.

SRK Consulting US Inc. SRK Denver Division, a foreign-owned for-profit professional services firm headquartered in Denver, Colorado, delivers expert witness services and technical consulting for federal litigation and compliance matters to the Internal Revenue Service and the Department of Energy as a prime contractor (78% of recent awards) and as a technical subcontractor on environmental remediation and facility operations work. SRK competes in the open market without socioeconomic set-asides or small business certifications and self-performs all labor on SCI-reportable prime contracts with zero subcontractor engagement.

The vendor's customer concentration is extreme and narrow. The Department of the Treasury's Internal Revenue Service accounts for 53 of 82 total awards (65% of recent award count) and $13.1 million of the $22.3 million combined potential value across the portfolio — 59% of total potential value. This concentration reflects SRK's specialized positioning in IRS Chief Counsel litigation support, where the vendor provides expert witness testimony in tax disputes, conservation easement valuation, forensic accounting and audit defense, and property valuation work. The second-largest customer by potential value is the Department of Defense Washington Headquarters Service, with 2 awards worth $8.2 million combined, though this concentration is driven by dollars rather than award count. The Department of Energy Office of Environmental Management represents 12 awards by count but smaller dollar values, anchoring SRK's secondary market in hazardous waste treatment, site characterization, and transuranic waste facility support. The SEC, Department of Justice Tax Division, and EPA complete the active customer set.

On the IRS contracts alone, representative work includes a $725,098 definitive labor-hour contract awarded September 4, 2026, for expert witness services on five-year performance through September 3, 2031 (place of performance Miami Gardens, Florida); a $478,342 definitive contract awarded July 2, 2026, for subject matter expert support services through July 2, 2031 (place of performance Denver); a $365,282 definitive contract awarded March 26, 2026, for expert witness services in IRS Chief Counsel litigation (place of performance Denver); and a $337,021 modification awarded August 6, 2025, for valuation and appraisal of syndicated conservation easements in support of ongoing litigation (place of performance Denver). The vendor also holds positions on two parent vehicles: Blanket Purchase Agreement 19AQMM20A0500 (3 task orders) and Indefinite Delivery Contract 68HERC21D0002 (3 task orders). Sub-work includes technical support under Battelle Memorial Institute on the Site Characterization and Monitoring Technical Support Center (awarded December 20, 2023, and December 17, 2024) and Waste Isolation Pilot Plant (WIPP) Management and Operating contract technical support (multiple task orders from October 2023 through February 2025) on ventilation system consulting, test-and-balance work, and general engineering.

Activity has contracted in recent years. Award volume peaked at 21 awards per year in both 2022 and 2023, declined to 15 in 2024, then sharply dropped to 4 in 2025 and 7 in 2026 (partial year through September). This declining trajectory signals portfolio saturation or contract completion without equivalent replacement. Within the next twenty-four months, 25 awards carrying combined potential value of $5.8 million reach ultimate completion, representing significant recompete exposure for the vendor and open opportunity for competitors.

SCI-reported invoiced federal service-contract revenue totaled $3.4 million across fiscal years 2022 through 2025, with FTE delivery peaking at 1.6 FTEs in FY2024, then declining to 1.3 FTEs in FY2025 — consistent with the sharp drop in award count. Government-paid hourly rates on SRK's federal services contracts median around $322.51 per hour, with senior expert-witness pricing reaching $575.50 per hour at the 90th percentile and junior labor priced as low as $183.18 per hour at the 10th percentile. This wide rate range reflects the heterogeneity of expert witness engagements, from junior geological or engineering analysts to senior litigation-support specialists with specialized valuation or forensic expertise. The vendor's capability footprint centers on expert witness testimony and forensic consulting in tax litigation, mining and environmental engineering, property valuation, and hazardous waste facility operations — domains where SRK's global earth and water resource industry background enables credible federal courtroom presence and technical analysis.
