WD Forensic Inc.

WD Forensic Inc., a Snohomish, Washington-based for-profit forensic services firm, supplies expert witness testimony, forensic examination, and firearms-instruction services to the federal government as a prime contractor exclusively, competing in full and open competition without set-aside designations. The company holds no documented subcontracting relationships and operates across two primary service lines: expert witness services for federal litigation and firearms-instruction services for federal law enforcement training.

WD Forensic's customer footprint is heavily concentrated within the Department of Justice. The U.S. Attorney's Offices account for 75 of 90 awards (83% of combined potential value at $1.3 million), reflecting WD Forensic's core mission supporting federal prosecutors across multiple judicial districts with specialized expertise in firearms identification, ballistic analysis, tool mark examination, and shooting incident investigation. The Bureau of Alcohol, Tobacco, Firearms and Explosives (ATF) represents the second-largest customer with 13 awards ($198 thousand combined potential value), including a $150,000 multiple-award blanket purchase agreement (BPA DJA16AHDQS0259) running through December 2026 that allows ATF to acquire firearms and tool mark instructor services for the National Firearms Examiner Academy. Two smaller awards derive from the Department of Justice Civil Rights Division ($3,750) and the Executive Office for US Attorneys ($12,350). Across the entire portfolio, 100% of awards are prime contracts; no sub-award activity is present.

Representative work includes a $170,808.50 time-and-materials purchase order from the U.S. Attorney's Offices (February 2025) for expert witness services spanning firearms forensics and tool mark analysis, a $118,975.00 purchase order (June 2025) for similar expert witness services with completion through May 2028, and a $33,274.94 purchase order (August 2023) supporting federal litigation efforts with completion through August 2027. Smaller calls against the ATF BPA include a $6,202.92 firm-fixed-price call (January 2023) and a $2,700 instructor-services call (January 2022), both supporting the National Firearms Examiner Academy curriculum.

Activity has fluctuated over the past five years—24 awards in 2022, dropping to 10 in 2023, recovering to 16 in 2024, then rising to 23 in 2025—with three awards captured through mid-July 2026. The recompete cliff is substantial: 29 awards (combined potential value $740 thousand) reach ultimate completion within the next twenty-four months, representing roughly half the portfolio's total potential value and indicating significant near-term recompete exposure. All awards are categorized under NAICS 541690 (All Other Legal Services) or related instruction categories, with 76 awards tagged under PSC code Support-Professional: Expert Witness. WD Forensic operates entirely on time-and-materials or firm-fixed-price purchase orders, with individual ceiling values ranging from $1,300 to $170,808.50, positioning the vendor as a high-touch, specialized-expertise provider rather than a systems-integration or large-scale contractor.
