About the company
Akua, Inc., a small business based in Woodside, California, develops advanced tracking and security assessment technologies for the Department of Defense as a prime contractor (60% of recent awards) and as a subcontractor. The vendor competes full-and-open rather than under set-asides, with most recent work concentrated in defense R&D under the Small Business Innovation Research (SBIR) program and related DoD solicitations.
Akua has established itself since 2018 as a specialized contractor focused on satellite-based tracking, electromagnetic radiation assessments for ordnance, and supply-chain security. Its prime award portfolio centers on Defense Logistics Agency Troop Support, which accounts for 100% of the combined potential value across recent work. The vendor's three prime contracts include a $1.1 million definitive contract awarded December 9, 2025, for security enhancements in multimodal global tracking of Class IV shipments (ultimate completion December 8, 2026); a $599,610.50 Phase I SBIR contract for satellite-based global pallet-level tracking and Hazards of Electromagnetic Radiation to Ordnance (HERO) assessments (ultimate completion December 31, 2025); and a $99,830.52 Phase I SBIR purchase order from the Collider Day initiative for conductive material seal tamper-detection analytics (ultimate completion March 4, 2026). The vendor also places task orders through the ASTRO vehicle (2 task orders). In its subcontractor capacity, Akua delivers GPS tracking devices and equipment to HII Mission Technologies Corp under the Joint Network of Engineering and Emerging Operations (JNEEO) task order, with funding activity dating to February 2024.
Total recent award volume stands at five awards (three prime, two sub) carrying $1.8 million in combined potential value, with $1.1 million in combined potential value facing recompete within the next twenty-four months. Activity has grown modestly — two awards in 2024 to three in 2025 — and customer concentration is narrow: Defense Logistics Agency Troop Support and Headquarters dominate the footprint. The vendor's capability portfolio is tightly focused on specialized defense logistics technologies rather than broad IT or engineering services.
