Adnet Systems Inc.

Adnet Systems Inc., a minority-owned, for-profit Subchapter S corporation based in Bethesda, Maryland, supplies scientific research, data analysis, and technical services to federal agencies primarily as a prime contractor (97% of recent awards), competing predominantly under full-and-open, non-set-aside vehicle awards despite its small-business designation across NASA and DoD mission portfolios.

Adnet's customer concentration sits heavily with NASA. The top five customer agencies account for 49% of award count and 43% of combined potential value, led by NASA Goddard Space Center (9 awards, $1.28 billion combined potential value), NASA Headquarters (9 awards, $3.5 million), and NASA Shared Services Center (33 awards, $2.6 million). The dollar concentration reveals the scale mismatch: Goddard's $1.28 billion anchors most of Adnet's pipeline value, stemming from a single $360 million cost-plus-fixed-fee definitive contract for Space and Earth Sciences Data Analysis (SESDA V) running through March 31, 2028, which covers data operations, information systems, engineering, science communication, education, and public outreach supporting Goddard's Sciences and Exploration Directorate. A second large vehicle — a single-award indefinite-delivery contract for Global Modeling and Assimilation Support (GLOMAS) with an $85 million ceiling awarded March 15, 2026 and running through March 1, 2031 — extends Adnet's Goddard footprint. Beyond NASA, Adnet recently won a seat on GSA's OASIS+ Total Small Business Multiple Award Contract (IDIQ) awarded December 19, 2024, with a multi-billion-dollar ceiling extending through December 18, 2029, though the contract carries a placeholder ceiling value and represents an entry point rather than an active dollar pipeline.

Adnet's research and development footprint spans earth science, space science, heliophysics, and solar physics. Representative examples include a $697,297 research grant from NASA Shared Services Center (awarded March 31, 2025, completing March 30, 2028) to execute balanced science programs supporting exploration initiatives focused on lunar, Mars, and deep-space research; a $401,251 research grant on SAGE III/ISS aerosol measurements for the Global Space-based Stratospheric Aerosol Climatology (GLOSSAC) effort (awarded June 1, 2024, completing May 31, 2027); an $81,046 research grant for heliophysics open-science software workshops (awarded December 10, 2024, completing December 9, 2025); and a $181,888 grant investigating solar wind structures measured by the Parker Solar Probe using rotational tomography and advanced image processing (awarded September 20, 2021, completing September 19, 2026). Adnet's award portfolio across NAICS and PSC codes emphasizes research and development in physical, engineering, and life sciences (17 awards), custom computer programming services (18 awards), and space-science R&D (21 awards under PSC code for space science/basic research).

Activity has been volatile over the past five years: three awards in 2021, dropping to two in 2023, then rising to six in 2024 and seven in 2025, with two awards in 2026 year-to-date. Seven awards with combined potential value of $361.3 million reach ultimate completion within the next twenty-four months, creating significant recompete exposure — most notably the SESDA V contract concluding March 31, 2028. Adnet also recently won a position on the Scalable Homeland Innovative Enterprise Layered Defense (SHIELD) IDIQ issued by the Missile Defense Agency on December 29, 2025, a $151 billion ceiling multiple-award contract extending through December 28, 2035 and covering research, development, prototyping, systems engineering, and modernization across classified and unclassified domains with primary performance in Huntsville, Alabama. The initial delivery order under SHIELD carries only a $500 ceiling, representing a placeholder order establishing Adnet's position on the vehicle rather than active work.

Adnet's GSA Schedule footprint (Federal Supply Schedule GS35F0089K, 12 task orders, $2 million combined potential value) positions the company across seventeen IT and systems labor categories ranging from $49.47 to $148.90 per hour, with bachelor's-degree education requirements and no security-cleared roles offered, spanning help-desk, systems administration, enterprise architecture, and senior analyst roles. Adnet performs sub-award work on space flight and airborne systems design under Columbus Technologies and Services, Inc., and focal-plane package operations under Lockheed Martin Corporation, and receives sub-awards from George Mason University on heliophysics research grants. The company serves 28 distinct federal agencies across 136 total awards in the source data, with combined potential value of $3.01 billion and combined obligated dollars of $1.14 billion (38% of potential value), reflecting the backlog characteristic of large fixed-price research contracts with multi-year performance periods.
