Kestrel Tellevate LLC

Kestrel Tellevate LLC, a Decatur, Georgia–based consulting firm, delivers environmental compliance, hazardous-materials risk assessment, and operational risk management services to federal agencies as a prime contractor (81% of recent awards) on full-and-open, non-set-aside procurements. The vendor operates as a limited liability company and competes predominantly on the General Services Administration's Multiple Award Schedule (MAS) and related GSA vehicles, with no recurring SBA set-aside designation across its prime footprint.

Kestrel Tellevate's capability portfolio centers on environmental management and regulatory compliance support. Representative work includes a $1.25 million single-award Blanket Purchase Agreement with the USDA Forest Service (awarded June 2024, running through June 2029) for survey, evaluation, and revision of all Human Health and Ecological Risk Assessment (HHERA) documents produced for Forest Service use; a $291 thousand delivery order under that same BPA for HHERA survey and updates; a $108 thousand BPA task order from USDA for toxicological advisory services on Worksheet Maker tool development; a $356 thousand delivery order from the Department of the Interior's Office of Policy Management and Budget for environmental compliance support services on a time-and-materials basis; and a $84 thousand delivery order from the Forest Service's Missoula Technology and Development Center for Operational Risk Management Guide revision (small-business set-aside). GSA labor categories on the MAS span Engineer/Scientist roles at $124.33 per hour through Executive Consultant/Director positions at $208.31 per hour, with all roles requiring a bachelor's degree and none carrying security-clearance requirements.

The Department of Agriculture Forest Service dominates customer concentration, accounting for six awards with $2.4 million in combined potential value — roughly 51% of the vendor's total portfolio. The Department of the Interior, General Services Administration, Department of Health and Human Services, and Department of the Navy round out the active customer base, serving ten distinct agencies across sixteen total awards. Kestrel Tellevate holds a position on the GSA Multiple Award Schedule (10 task orders, $3 million combined potential value), the Professional Services Schedule (2 task orders, $276 thousand combined potential value), and an indefinite-delivery contract (3 task orders). Award activity shows concentration in 2024 and 2025, with four and three awards respectively, following a sparse 2023 period. Combined potential value across all awards stands at $4.7 million, with $1.5 million obligated to date (32% of potential).

In its subcontractor role, Kestrel Tellevate delivers risk assessment and PFAS (per- and polyfluoroalkyl substances) remediation investigation support to Trevet-Noreas JV LLC on Navy projects at Naval Air Station North Island, Coronado, California, and the Marine Corps Logistics Base Bridgeport, with three sub awards dating to late 2025. Service Contract Inventory reports show minimal SCI-captured activity — roughly 0.8 to 1.1 FTEs across FY2024 and FY2025 — reflecting the vendor's subcontractor engagement on those particular Navy remediation tasks; SCI data exclude the vendor's larger prime work on MAS vehicles and the USDA BPA. The vendor's award concentration in environmental consulting (11 of 16 awards) and engineering services (3 awards) underscores a specialized posture in federal compliance and risk-assessment domains rather than broad-spectrum IT or administrative services.
