About the company
Applied Engineering Concepts, Incorporated, a small business prime contractor based in Eldersburg, Maryland, specializes in software and systems engineering, RF frontals and software-defined radios, communications systems engineering, and embedded systems engineering for Department of Defense and space applications, with recent work split between prime awards (58% of recent portfolio) and subcontract engagement (42%).
Applied Engineering Concepts competes full-and-open — no set-asides appear across the recent award footprint. The vendor's customer concentration is heavily Navy-centric. The Department of the Navy accounts for nine of twelve total awards across three subordinate components: the Office of Naval Research (2 awards, $4.8 million combined potential value), the Naval Sea Systems Command (2 awards), and the Information Warfare Systems Command (5 awards). The Department of Energy Office of Science and the Defense Advanced Research Projects Agency round out the five distinct customer agencies. By dollar volume, the Office of Naval Research anchors the portfolio at $4.8 million, nearly all of the vendor's $4.8 million combined potential value across the entire award set.
Representative prime work includes a $2.675 million cost-plus-fixed-fee definitive contract awarded by the Office of Naval Research on May 1, 2026 for the Future Architecture for Heterogeneous System Tasking (FAHST) program (completion April 30, 2027, place of performance Sykesville, Maryland), and a $2.159 million cost-plus-fixed-fee definitive contract from the Office of Naval Research on June 15, 2023 for the PHY Agility for Delivery of Modular Exploits (PADME) effort, which developed tools and applications for RF-based cyber operations and warfighter support (completion August 28, 2026). Applied Engineering Concepts also received a federal grant from the Department of Energy Office of Science in July 2023 for the IDENTIPHYBER program (ultimate completion August 31, 2024).
Applied Engineering Concepts subcontracts to Scientific Research Corporation on multiple engineering support efforts, with five sub-awards dated between February 2024 and September 2025 covering systems engineering, acquisition services, software-defined networking, RF engineering, and SDR support. The vendor places work under the Seaport Next Generation vehicle (6 task orders, $500 combined potential value).
One award ($2.7 million combined potential value) faces ultimate completion within the next twenty-four months and presents a recompete opportunity. The SCI dataset shows minimal federal services footprint: 3 SCI records across FY2022–FY2025 with Applied Engineering Concepts named only as a subcontractor, yielding roughly 0.4 to 0.6 FTEs per year on SCI-reportable contracts during this window. This reflects the vendor's emphasis on small-dollar, project-based prime contracting and sub-work rather than large personnel-intensive service contracts.
