What Longenecker & Associates does

Longenecker & Associates, operating as 'L&A: A Geosyntec Company' since its December 2025 acquisition by Geosyntec Consultants, is a U.S. federal contractor delivering technical and management support services to the Department of Energy and National Nuclear Security Administration complex. The firm organizes its work around five core capabilities—Mission Assurance, Project Delivery, Field Operations Support, Regulatory Assurance, and Business Strategy and Execution—covering safety, quality, formality of operations, contractor assurance, EVMS, startup/commissioning, NEPA analysis, permitting, and strategic communications. Its underlying technology is human expertise rather than a productized platform: domain knowledge, regulatory know-how, and field operations experience embedded in cleared professional staff.

The company operates from five U.S. offices (Boca Raton HQ; Oak Ridge, TN; Los Alamos, NM; Aiken, SC; Albuquerque, NM) and supports the DOE defense nuclear and cleanup mission at approximately 20 sites, with named engagements spanning Los Alamos National Laboratory, Sandia National Laboratories, Savannah River Site, Oak Ridge Reservation, Hanford, Pantex Plant, Fermilab, and Jefferson Lab. Two SBA mentor-protégé joint ventures extend service scope: the JVC-LA Project Management Alliance (with J. Vollbrecht Consulting) and the Mission Assurance Alliance (with Paschal Solutions, Inc.).

The revenue model is exclusively federal government professional services delivered through GSA Schedule, DOE/NNSA direct contracts, NNSA Supply Chain Management Center Agreement, DOE/NNSA Technical and Engineering Support BPA, and DOE/NNSA Enterprise Construction Management Services vehicles. Work is won by embedding into M&O and cleanup contractor teams (Triad, NTESS, Battelle Savannah River Alliance, PanTeXas Deterrence, Fermi Forward Discovery Group, H2C, SURATech, UCOR, N3B) and through direct DOE oversight channels. Pricing is quote-based and not publicly disclosed; the firm is privately held with no disclosed revenue, headcount, or cap table.

Product overview

L&A: A Geosyntec Company provides technical and management consulting services to the U.S. Department of Energy (DOE) and its contractors, specializing in national security, environmental remediation, and nuclear development projects. The company operates as a unified service offering organized around five core capabilities: Mission Assurance, Project Delivery, Field Operations Support, Regulatory Assurance, and Business Strategy and Execution. These services are delivered both directly and through two joint ventures—JVC-LA Project Management Alliance (combining L&A's mission and regulatory assurance with JVC's project management expertise) and Mission Assurance Alliance (partnering with Paschal Solutions for nuclear safety and engineering support). Following acquisition by Geosyntec Consultants in December 2025, L&A continues to support small modular reactor developers, uranium enrichment initiatives, and the DOE defense nuclear mission at 20 sites across the DOE enterprise.

Broad incumbents

• AECOM: AECOM is one of the largest global engineering and federal services firms with a substantial U.S. DOE/NNSA practice covering environmental remediation, nuclear facility operations, and federal infrastructure. It competes with L&A on DOE enterprise and site-level contracts but at vastly larger scale across many federal agencies.
• Jacobs Solutions: Jacobs is a major federal engineering and nuclear services prime contractor, including DOE cleanup and national security programs. It overlaps with L&A in nuclear operations, environmental remediation, and mission assurance, but operates at enterprise scale across many federal and commercial clients.
• Leidos: Leidos is a large federal scientific and engineering services contractor with significant DOE/NNSA, NNSA tritium operations, and national security work. It competes with L&A on technical, regulatory, and mission assurance services but at much larger scale and broader portfolio.
• Booz Allen Hamilton: Booz Allen is a major federal management and technology consulting firm with DOE/nuclear and national security practices. It overlaps with L&A's regulatory assurance, mission assurance, and strategic advisory work, but serves a much broader set of federal clients.
• Tetra Tech: Tetra Tech is a leading federal environmental and water consulting firm with major DOE environmental remediation work. It overlaps with L&A's project delivery and field operations support at cleanup sites but at substantially larger scale and broader environmental focus.
• Battelle Memorial Institute: Battelle is a nonprofit R&D and federal services organization that manages multiple DOE national laboratories (including via Battelle Savannah River Alliance) and competes with L&A as a site-level M&O prime and federal contractor.
• ICF International: ICF is a federal management and scientific consulting firm with significant DOE, environmental, and energy programs. It overlaps with L&A's regulatory, mission assurance, and energy strategy consulting but at much larger scale across many federal agencies.

Direct peers

• Navarro Research and Engineering: Navarro is a DOE-focused technical and management services contractor providing environmental remediation, nuclear operations, and engineering support across the DOE complex. It directly competes with L&A for site-level and enterprise DOE work, with similar federal-only revenue concentration.
• Strategic Resources International (SRI): SRI is a federal technical services contractor with a DOE/NNSA focus on nuclear safety, regulatory affairs, and environmental compliance — directly comparable to L&A's regulatory assurance and mission assurance capabilities.

Emerging players

• WSP USA (formerly Wood Environment & Infrastructure): WSP's federal practice (built in part from acquisitions of Wood E&I and Golder) provides environmental and engineering services to DOE and other federal clients, competing with L&A on environmental remediation and nuclear-related technical work.
