Tri-Tech Forensics, Inc.

Tri-Tech Forensics, Inc., doing business as Tri TECH Forensics National La, is a small business manufacturer of forensic, medical, and emergency response products and supplies that operates as a prime contractor exclusively—823 recent federal awards across 67 agencies, with no subcontract activity. The company is based in Leland, North Carolina, and competes predominantly in full-and-open contracting, with no SBA set-aside designations on its major vehicle holdings, though several smaller delivery orders carry small-business set-asides.

Tri-Tech's capability portfolio centers on three concrete product lines grounded in its award history: specialized DNA collection kits (the core revenue driver), tactical medical supplies and first aid kits for law enforcement and emergency response, and training aids and simulation equipment for federal medical and trauma instruction. The dominant revenue stream is the $89.4 million single-award Indefinite Delivery Contract with the Federal Bureau of Investigation Headquarters Division, awarded May 1, 2022, through April 30, 2027, for BODE Buccal DNA collection devices, gloves, fingerprint pads, instruction sheets, and barcoded envelopes. Five delivery orders under that IDC have obligated approximately $43.65 million through December 2025. Representative secondary work includes a $1.54 million delivery order from the Department of Homeland Security Federal Law Enforcement Training Center for Operator Individual First Aid Kits and Combat Application Tourniquets under the GSA Multiple Award Schedule; $562 thousand and $608 thousand delivery orders from U.S. Customs and Border Protection for EMS fixed facility bags and active shooter medical response kits; and recurring small purchase orders from the Defense Logistics Agency Medical Supply Chain for warming blankets, tourniquets, resuscitators, and splints under $1 thousand to $35 thousand each.

Customer concentration is extreme and anchored by the FBI. The top five agencies by potential value account for 97% of combined potential value. The FBI alone represents $176.7 million (25 awards)—nearly 77% of the total portfolio—driven entirely by the DNA collection IDC and its derivative task orders. Customs and Border Protection follows at $33.7 million (37 awards), Federal Law Enforcement Training Center at $8.2 million (52 awards), and Secret Service at $3.4 million (22 awards). The Defense Logistics Agency Medical Supply Chain dominates by order count (259 awards) but carries minimal per-order value—recurring commodity purchases averaging under $5 thousand each, together representing just $241 thousand of combined potential value despite the largest award count.

Vehicle position is thin outside the FBI IDC. Tri-Tech holds placement on the DHS Medical Supplies BPA 2015-2020 (76 task orders, $13 million combined potential value), the GSA Multiple Award Schedule (42 task orders, $6.8 million), and three other smaller indefinite delivery contracts (totaling roughly $57 million across 16 task orders). The company competes predominantly on spot procurements and delivery orders rather than through standing government-wide vehicles.

Activity trajectory shows volatility with no clear upward trend. Awards per year fluctuated from 46 in 2022 to 143 in 2023 (driven by the wave of small DLA medical supply purchases), then dropped sharply to 41 in 2024, recovered to 53 in 2025, and remains sparse through May 2026 (8 awards year-to-date). The recompete cliff over the next twenty-four months is minimal—just $131 thousand in combined potential value across two awards—which reflects the long tail of the FBI contract through April 2027.

Product-category concentration is broad by NAICS and PSC. Top categories include Surgical Appliance and Supplies Manufacturing (115 awards), Medical/Dental/Hospital Equipment Merchant Wholesalers (97 awards), and Surgical and Medical Instrument Manufacturing (69 awards); by PSC, Medical and Surgical Instruments dominate with 267 awards, followed by Laboratory Equipment and Supplies (218 awards) and Replenishable Field Medical Sets (77 awards). This distribution reflects the duality of Tri-Tech's portfolio: a massive, stable DNA collection contract anchored to a single agency, layered atop a broad but low-margin, high-frequency commodity medical supply business serving DLA, DHS, and smaller law enforcement customers.

The company has held federal SAM registration since at least 2001, indicating over two decades of continuous federal contracting presence. With $230.7 million in combined potential value across all awards, but only $85.3 million obligated (37% burn), Tri-Tech carries substantial unfunded IDC ceiling capacity—a signal of either strong agency intent to draw down remaining contract value over time, or conversely, vulnerability to recompete or contract modification if agency requirements shift.
