About the company
Cathexis, LLC, a service-disabled veteran-owned small business (SDVOSB) headquartered in McLean, Virginia, operates as a prime contractor delivering management consulting, program management, data analytics, and enterprise performance improvement services to federal civilian and defense agencies. The firm competes across both set-aside and unrestricted vehicles, with SDVOSB designations anchoring much of its VA work and Total Small Business set-asides on the PRISM and OASIS+ platforms.
Cathexis's customer concentration is extreme and tilted toward a single agency. The Department of Veterans Affairs Strategic Acquisition Center Frederick accounts for 54 awards (37% of all awards) valued at $26.03 billion combined potential value—representing 86% of the vendor's total portfolio ceiling. The Department of Transportation's Federal Aviation Administration ranks second with 45 awards ($1.07 billion), DOD's Washington Headquarters Service places third with 6 awards ($1.84 billion), and GSA's Federal Acquisition Service holds 8 awards ($787.4 million). The top five customers cover 82% of awards and 99% of combined potential value. Within the VA concentration, three capability streams dominate: transition and economic development program support (recurring delivery orders under a $159 million single-award IDIQ, with recent task orders valued at $11.66 million, $11.25 million, $6.03 million, and $5.88 million issued October 2024), financial audit services for Medical Disability Examination ($41.78 million VECTOR set-aside delivery order, April 2024), and independent verification and validation for the Medical Disability Examination Program (multiple BPA calls totaling $6.67 million under MAS, March 2023). Recent non-VA work includes a $9.99 million BPA call from the US Census Bureau for eTools application and administration support (July 2025, MAS vehicle), a $2.83 million VECTOR delivery order with VA for VA Acquisition Academy supply chain management curriculum (January 2025, SDVOSB set-aside), and multiple DoD delivery orders under the $1.8 billion PRISM IDIQ for force education and training support ($8.59 million, September 2024), Joint Assessment Enabling Capability ($6.96 million, September 2024), and OUSD Personnel and Readiness technical analysis ($21.78 million Total Small Business set-aside, September 2024).
Cathexis holds six parent vehicles anchoring its federal footprint: two OASIS+ contracts (OASIS+ Unrestricted and OASIS+ Total Small Business, both awarded December 2024 with $999,999,999,999 placeholder ceilings and completion December 2029), an OASIS+ SDVOSB IDIQ ($999,999,999,999 placeholder ceiling, September 2024–September 2029), a $1.8 billion PRISM IDIQ with Washington Headquarters Service (through July 2026, with option year 2 exercised), a GSA Federal Supply Schedule contract with $232.9 million ceiling (41 task orders, $648 million combined potential value across all MAS work), a $446.1 million Justice Management Division BPA for service desk and IT support (November 2023–November 2033, no set-aside), and a $4.42 million single-award FAA IDC (through August 2027). The Multiple Award Schedule is the vendor's dominant vehicle by task order count (41 orders) and value ($648 million).
Activity has accelerated in recent years—six awards in 2021 to twenty-one in 2024—though 2025 shows only two awards to date. Five awards (combined potential value $61.2 million) face ultimate completion within the next twenty-four months, creating recompete exposure concentrated in VA transition and economic development task orders scheduled through September 2025 and related programs expiring through early 2026.
SCI-reported invoiced revenue across federal service contracts above the $150,000 threshold totaled $122.1 million over FY2022–FY2024 ($41.5 million in FY2022 across 114 FTEs, $47.6 million in FY2023 across 140 FTEs, $33 million in FY2024 across 138 FTEs). This SCI dataset covers only labor-hour and similar service contracts and excludes goods, micro-purchases, and classified work; it represents a subset of Cathexis's total federal revenue. Government-paid hourly rates on SCI-reportable prime contracts ranged from a 10th percentile of $105.42/hr through a median of $139.80/hr to a 90th percentile of $204.58/hr, reflecting a labor mix spanning business analysts and program managers through senior IT consulting and deployment advisory roles. Across SCI-reportable prime contracts, subcontractors performed an average of 11% of total contractor hours, with fifty named subcontractors reported across the dataset; Cathexis self-performs the majority of its work. The vendor's GSA Schedule labor portfolio spans 78 categories, ranging from project assistants at $47.06/hr (high school, 1 year experience) through deployment advisors at $292.02/hr (master's degree, 17 years experience), with no security-cleared offerings.
Cathexis operates as a 100% prime contractor in the source award data and does not appear as a subcontractor. The corporate structure shows Paradyme Solutions, LLC as a named subsidiary, also carrying SDVOSB certification, minority-owned designation, and veteran-owned status. The vendor's legal name changed from CPS Professional Services, LLC to Cathexis, LLC, reflected in non-novation amendments across GSA and DoD contracts as of December 2024.
