About the company
AET Federal Inc., operating as AET System Inc., is an SBA 8(a)-certified minority-owned small disadvantaged business based in Vienna, Virginia, that delivers IT infrastructure, software licensing, administrative support, and facilities services to federal agencies as a prime contractor across both set-aside and full-and-open vehicles. The vendor competes predominantly under 8(a) Sole Source designations on defense and civilian work but also holds unrestricted seats on government-wide acquisition contracts; all nine awards in the source represent prime positions with no subcontractor footprint.
AET's customer concentration is heavily weighted toward defense and civilian IT modernization. The top five funding agencies account for 100% of combined potential value, dominated by the National Aeronautics and Space Administration ($20 billion from a single SEWP VI GWAC award issued November 1, 2026) and the Department of the Navy Naval Sea Systems Command ($4 billion from a Seaport-NXG IDIQ plus a $500 minimum-guarantee delivery order). The Department of Commerce US Census Bureau, the Department of Health and Human Services Food and Drug Administration, and the Office of Naval Research round out the active customer set. The NASA SEWP VI award, announced two weeks ago, represents the vendor's single largest vehicle holding and accounts for roughly 83% of the combined potential value across all awards.
AET holds positions on three parent vehicles: the NASA SEWP VI GWAC ($20 billion ceiling, multiple-award total small business set-aside, award date November 1, 2026, performance through October 31, 2036) for IT solutions including communication and audio-visual infrastructure; the Naval Sea Systems Command Seaport-NXG IDIQ ($4 billion ceiling, multiple-award, no set-aside, award date January 2, 2025, performance through January 1, 2029) for facilities support and naval systems work; and the GSA Multiple Award Schedule for software and IT services. Recent named contract work includes a $6.81 million 8(a) Sole Source definitive contract awarded July 29, 2025, by the US Census Bureau for decennial operations support and data analysis (completion October 31, 2026); a $3.99 million 8(a) Sole Source purchase order from the Office of Naval Research awarded September 12, 2025, for ocean sciences administrative and facilities support at John C. Stennis Space Center, Mississippi (completion September 30, 2028); a $2.08 million 8(a) Sole Source definitive contract from the Marine Corps awarded February 27, 2026, for PRDS-ITFSS services (completion October 31, 2026); and a $2.99 million firm fixed-price delivery order from the Food and Drug Administration on the GSA Multiple Award Schedule, awarded September 30, 2026, for IdeaScale software licensing (completion September 29, 2031).
Activity has been sparse and episodic—one award in 2012, one in 2017, then four awards in 2025 and three in 2026—with the SEWP VI award representing a recent strategic acquisition that substantially altered the vehicle portfolio. Three awards (combined potential value $12.9 million) reach ultimate completion inside the next twenty-four months, creating near-term recompete exposure. The GSA Schedule labor portfolio spans 59 categories from data entry and software engineering through senior systems and cybersecurity engineering roles, priced from $46.70 to $271.34 per hour, with education requirements ranging from associate to master's degrees and no security-cleared positions offered.
