BIODIVERSITY RESEARCH INSTITUTE

Biodiversity Research Institute specializes in ecological monitoring, wildlife tracking, and environmental impact assessment services for federal agencies. Their core capabilities include deploying and maintaining advanced wildlife telemetry systems such as MOTUS tracking networks, conducting baseline wildlife surveys in coastal and marine ecosystems, and providing technical support for natural resource damage assessments. The organization brings deep expertise in field data collection, bioacoustic monitoring, and spatial analysis of species distribution, with a focus on migratory birds, marine fauna, and habitat connectivity in the Gulf of Maine and other sensitive ecosystems. Their technical differentiation lies in integrating field biology with sensor-based monitoring technologies to deliver scientifically rigorous, data-driven environmental assessments that inform regulatory and conservation decisions. The contractor has delivered services to the Department of the Interior, NOAA, the Department of Defense, the Department of Transportation, the General Services Administration, and the Department of Justice. For DOI and NOAA, they conduct ecological baseline surveys and natural resource damage assessment support. With DoD, they install and calibrate wildlife tracking infrastructure on military lands. For DOT, they provide environmental compliance services tied to infrastructure projects, while DOJ engages them for expert witness testimony in environmental litigation. Their primary industry focus is environmental consulting services under NAICS 541620, where they apply ecological science to federal environmental compliance, conservation planning, and habitat protection. They also operate in environmental conservation organizations (813312) and legal support for environmental cases (541199), positioning themselves as a science-to-policy bridge in federal environmental governance. Biodiversity Research Institute is a small, non-certified entity based in Portland, Maine, with a regional footprint centered on the Northeastern U.S. coastal zone. Their government market positioning is niche but high-impact, serving as a specialized technical provider for ecological monitoring and wildlife science in federal environmental and defense programs.
