Armavel LLC

Armavel LLC, a Wyoming-based for-profit limited liability company, operates as a subcontractor (82% of recent awards) and a prime contractor on federal IT and cybersecurity contracts, with minimal set-aside designation and full-and-open competition as the dominant posture. The vendor holds a seat on the Scalable Homeland Innovative Enterprise Layered Defense (SHIELD) multiple-award IDIQ issued by the Missile Defense Agency with a ceiling value of $151 billion and a performance period through December 2035, but activity concentrate heavily in the subcontractor role beneath Maveris LLC on Department of Veterans Affairs security and cloud governance programs.

Armavel's recent award footprint centers on two customer agencies, though with stark imbalance between volume and dollar concentration. The Department of Veterans Affairs accounts for 18 of 22 total awards across its Technology Acquisition Center Austin organization, but these are subcontract increments on VA enterprise security programs — cybersecurity operations center next-generation support, enterprise security architecture, cloud security, and information security risk management assessments — all flowing through Maveris LLC as prime. The Centers for Medicare and Medicaid Services anchors the prime-contractor dollar exposure: a single $29 million firm fixed-price delivery order under the GSA Multiple Award Schedule, awarded May 2022 with ultimate completion April 2027, for cloud governance and project management oversight and support services. Work performance occurs in Tacoma, Washington, supporting CMS's Office of Information Technology modernization. The Missile Defense Agency contributes two SHIELD-related awards, the IDIQ itself and a $500 initial task order issued December 2025 with performance in Huntsville, Alabama. GSA's Federal Acquisition Service holds the MAS vehicle under which the CMS delivery order sits, with five task orders carrying $29 million in combined potential value.

The vendor's capability profile spans cloud governance, cloud security engineering, cybersecurity operations, information security risk assessment, enterprise security architecture, data loss prevention program management, and project management oversight on federal IT modernization and security initiatives. On prime work, Armavel delivers cloud technology and IT professional services, as evidenced by the CMS engagement's cloud development, architecture, and cybersecurity engineering components. On sub work, the vendor provides labor augmentation — project management, technical services, security risk assessments, and DevSecOps integration — primarily to Maveris LLC (15 sub awards through January 2026) and secondarily to Cognosante MVH LLC and Govcio, LLC. GSA Schedule labor categories span IT analyst, cloud applications analyst, health IT business process analyst, IT functional area expert, and cloud subject matter expert roles, with rates ranging from $61.18 per hour for junior IT analyst positions to $335.67 per hour for senior cloud subject matter experts with master's degrees and 17 years' experience. No security-cleared roles appear in the Schedule portfolio.

Service Contract Inventory data shows SCI-reportable invoiced revenue of $13 million across three prime records spanning FY2022–FY2024 ($1.8 million in FY2022, $5.8 million in FY2023, $5.3 million in FY2024). Federal services workforce scaled to roughly 6 to 30 FTEs annually; government-paid hourly rates on prime contracts ran a median of $316.18 per hour, with 10th-percentile labor at $298.80 per hour and 90th-percentile labor at $395.24 per hour. Across SCI-reportable prime contracts, subcontractors supplied roughly 35% of total contractor hours, with nine named subs reported. Award activity accelerated from one award in 2022 to eight in 2024, then stabilized at six in 2025; the CMS delivery order alone faces recompete within the next twenty-four months, representing $29 million in potential recompete exposure. The SHIELD IDIQ carries no dollar ceiling risk but represents a substantially larger vehicle available for future task-order activity.
