About the company
Terrasond LIMITED, a foreign-owned for-profit entity based in Palmer, Alaska, delivers hydrographic surveying, marine geospatial mapping, and coastal engineering services to federal agencies exclusively as a prime contractor on full-and-open (non-set-aside) federal contracts and IDIQs. The vendor operates across NAICS 541360 (Surveying and Mapping Services) and PSC Q197 (Marine Engineering), competing on technical qualifications and specialized equipment capacity rather than small-business designations. Recent awards cluster in hydrographic survey work: a $5.4 million firm fixed-price delivery order from NOAA for Norton Sound surveying (May 2026, completion January 2027), a $5.1 million NOAA delivery order for Norton Sound (May 2025), and a $6.6 million NOAA delivery order for Kotzebue Sound (May 2024).
The vendor's customer concentration is extreme and recent. NOAA accounts for 53 of 214 total prime awards and $1.33 billion of combined potential value, making it the dominant funding agency by volume and most of the disclosed dollars. However, the top-potential-value ranking reveals a material anomaly: the Department of the Navy Naval Sea Systems Command anchors only 2 awards but $72.55 billion in combined potential value, representing a threshold-level or placeholder ceiling on a major shipbuilding or strategic platform contract that dwarfs all other activity. Operational focus tracks NOAA and Army Corps of Engineers district offices (Alaska, Walla Walla, and Galveston), which account for 127 of the 214 awards and reflect Terrasond's geographic specialization in Alaskan and coastal U.S. waters. Terrasond holds two primary vehicle positions: a $450 million NOAA Hydrographic Surveys Division IDIQ (awarded January 2025, running through December 2029) and a $13 million Army Corps of Engineers Galveston District IDIQ (awarded April 2022, expiring April 2027). The NOAA vehicle has generated multiple task orders for hydrographic surveys across Norton Sound, Bristol Bay, Kotzebue Sound, and Nunivak Island in Alaska.
Activity is sparse and declining. Two awards were issued in 2025 and one in 2026; prior years show one award each in 2023 and 2024 and three in 2022. Only two awards are scheduled for completion within the next twenty-four months, combined potential value $5.4 million, limiting near-term recompete exposure. SCI-reported invoicing on prime federal service contracts above $150,000 was $18.5 million across FY2022–FY2024 ($5 million in FY2022, $6.8 million in FY2023, $6.6 million in FY2024), with median government-paid rates around $292.93 per hour and senior labor pricing reaching $1,467.10 per hour. Across SCI-reportable prime contracts, Terrasond subcontracts approximately 28% of total hours to an average of seven named subcontractors, indicating a hybrid delivery model that leans on in-house capability for core surveying and mapping while outsourcing specialized or support labor. Terrasond operates as a pure prime on the federal footprint with no recorded sub-awards in the source data, positioning it as a specialized vendor rather than a feeder to larger contractors.
