4 Star Technologies, Inc.

4 Star Technologies, Inc., a HUBZone-certified, Service-Disabled Veteran-Owned Small Business based in Virginia Beach, Virginia, operates as a prime contractor delivering commercial off-the-shelf IT products, software licenses, and specialized hardware to federal agencies, with 99% of recent awards as prime contracts across 310 customer agencies. The company is a child entity of Atlantic Diving Supply, Inc., a for-profit organization headquartered at the same Virginia Beach location.

4 Star Technologies competes predominantly under set-aside vehicles—particularly HUBZone, Total Small Business, and Service-Disabled Veteran-Owned designations—though also wins full-and-open procurements. Recent capability work spans enterprise software licensing, cybersecurity tools, network infrastructure, communications equipment, and specialized hardware across civilian and defense sectors. Representative awards include a $4.87 million HUBZone-set-aside delivery order from Naval Air Warfare Center for Evertz broadcast equipment under SEWP V; a $1.66 million Total Small Business order from Air Combat Command for a 361 Integrated Surveillance and Reconnaissance Group multipurpose hatch system; a $1.2 million HUBZone Sole Source order from GSA's Office of the CIO for cloud migration support; and a $1.18 billion HUBZone delivery order to the Office of the Comptroller of the Currency for Stealthbits software maintenance and support renewal through 2029. The vendor also delivers smaller-value, high-volume orders—sub-$100K procurements for software renewals, maintenance services, and IT equipment across dozens of agencies monthly.

Customer concentration clusters heavily with the Department of the Navy. Naval Information Warfare Systems Command anchors 102 awards worth $784.6 million combined potential value, and Naval Sea Systems Command holds 141 awards worth $7 million; together these Navy components represent roughly 12% of all recent awards but dominate potential-value concentration. The Securities and Exchange Commission ranks second by potential value at $82.2 million across 31 awards. The Department of Agriculture Office of the Chief Information Officer, Air Combat Command, and the Treasury Bureau of the Fiscal Service round out the top five by either award count or dollars. This distribution reflects 4 Star's deep embeddedness in defense IT procurement and growing civilian agency reach.

4 Star's vehicle footprint centers on Solutions for Enterprise Wide Procurement V (SEWP V), a GSA-administered government-wide acquisition contract under which the vendor has placed 1,426 task orders worth $418.2 million combined potential value—the overwhelming majority of its federal work. All other vehicles are marginal: one COTS Command and Control Equipment contract with 31 task orders, and a handful of agency-specific IDIQs with single-digit task order counts. SEWP V is the primary vehicle enabling 4 Star's ability to deliver rapid-cycle IT procurements to civilian and defense agencies without full re-competition.

Activity has grown steadily year over year—129 awards in 2022 to 175 in 2024—though 2025 slowed to 77 awards and 2026 shows only 6 recent awards in the source data. Fifty-seven awards totaling $18.8 million in combined potential value face ultimate completion within the next twenty-four months, representing near-term recompete exposure. The vendor's total portfolio stands at 2,001 prime and sub awards worth $21.25 billion in potential value, though only 2% ($413.5 million) has been obligated to date, reflecting the typical payment lag on delivery orders and IDV vehicles.

4 Star subcontracts with defense and research primes including Kratos Technology & Training Solutions (command and control system sustainment), Massachusetts Institute of Technology Lincoln Laboratory (research center software subscriptions), CACI Inc. Federal (NASA consolidated application platform services), and Spalding Consulting (project management and systems engineering support). Sub-award share remains minimal at 1% of recent portfolio volume.

Capability portfolio concentrates in enterprise software licensing, cybersecurity platforms (CyberArk, Trellix, Qualys, Stealthbits), network and communications equipment (Cisco, Forcepoint, PACSTAR routers, satellite terminals), cloud infrastructure (Salesforce, Box, CloudTamer), and specialized hardware procurement spanning from power supplies to surveillance equipment to multipurpose aircraft hatch systems. The vendor's NAICS profile is dominated by "Other Computer Related Services" (1,533 awards), with secondary concentration in computer peripheral equipment wholesale (121 awards) and software publishing (89 awards). PSC coding reflects IT software licensing and maintenance services across perpetual licenses, annual maintenance plans, and SaaS models.

4 Star Technologies operates within a consolidated parent-subsidiary structure under Atlantic Diving Supply, Inc., though the source provides no evidence of cross-subsidization, shared operations, or integrated capability between the two entities beyond shared headquarters address. The vendor's small business certifications—HUBZone, SDVOSB, and WOSB—have driven consistent set-aside eligibility and appear to anchor its competitive positioning, particularly within SEWP V where set-aside task orders form a material share of annual volume.
