Cylitix LLC

Cylitix LLC, an Arlington, Virginia–based minority-owned, self-certified small disadvantaged business, delivers specialized software-as-a-service solutions through its proprietary Vulcan platform to defense agencies as a prime contractor competing full-and-open. The company operates as a limited liability corporation structured for profit and competes without set-aside designations across all twelve of its recent federal awards, reflecting a posture of open-market competitive positioning rather than reliance on small-business set-asides.

Cylitix's capability portfolio centers on the Vulcan SaaS ecosystem—a platform architected for operational technology requirements across defense organizations. The vendor's work spans custom software development, web-based registration systems, event-management technologies, and advanced software integrations tailored for multi-agency interoperability. Representative prime work includes a $35 million single-award indefinite delivery contract with U.S. Special Operations Command for Vulcan Software-as-a-Service extending through August 2029; delivery orders under that IDC include a $2.7 million order for Year 1 subscription services, a $1.13 million delivery order for Five Eyes integration, and a $550,000 delivery order for enhanced special operations forces integration. Air Mobility Command has placed three orders totaling $4.7 million for Vulcan subscription services and advanced features, and the Office of the Secretary of Defense and the Department of the Army have awarded smaller orders for software licensing and event-support services.

Customer concentration is extreme. The U.S. Special Operations Command anchors 89.6% of combined potential value across six awards ($41.5 million of $46.3 million total), with the remaining three customer agencies—Air Mobility Command, the Office of the Secretary of Defense, and the Department of the Army—accounting for less than 3% combined. The USSOCOM IDC itself serves as the primary vehicle, with six task orders generating $9.1 million in combined potential value. Activity has accelerated since 2023, rising from one award that year to five in 2025, though the pipeline shows modest recompete exposure: only two awards complete in the next twenty-four months with combined potential value of $4.3 million. Cylitix operates entirely as a prime contractor—no subcontract footprint appears in the source—and does not hold positions on government-wide acquisition contracts or other multi-award vehicles beyond its single-award USSOCOM IDC. The vendor's NAICS footprint emphasizes custom computer programming services (seven awards) and software publishing (two awards).
