Cyth Systems E

Cyth Systems E, a San Diego-based for-profit corporation, supplies RF generator hardware, laboratory instrumentation, and data acquisition systems to federal agencies as a prime contractor under small-business set-asides, with minimal subcontract exposure. The vendor operates on a very recent and narrow award footprint — all four tracked awards fall within 2026, with three completing by January 15, 2027, and one by December 31, 2026 — reflecting either a new entrant to federal contracting or limited historical coverage in the source data.

Cyth's recent prime work centers on National Instruments instrumentation and RF test equipment. The National Oceanic and Atmospheric Administration awarded two purchase orders totaling $208,081.34: a $177,955.90 Total Small Business set-aside (September 17, 2026) for LabVIEW Professional Development System licenses, a PXIe signal transceiver, oscilloscope, multifunction DAQ, and six hours of engineering support for RF diagnostic testing at NOAA's National Reconditioning Center in Grandview, Missouri (completion January 15, 2027); and a $30,125.44 firm fixed-price order (September 16, 2026) for an SPIP tester (completion December 31, 2026). The National Institute of Standards and Technology placed a $53,197.65 Total Small Business set-aside purchase order (September 14, 2026) for two National Instruments PXI data acquisition systems sourced from Malaysia and delivered to NIST Gaithersburg for CHIPS R&D applications (completion January 15, 2027). Cyth subcontracts to Fairwinds Technologies LLC on a Department of the Air Force Materiel Command effort developing enhanced-security 5G waveforms for LEO CJADC2 networks (award date May 7, 2026, dollar magnitude not disclosed).

Customer concentration is split evenly between NOAA (two awards, $208 thousand) and NIST (one award, $53 thousand), with Air Force exposure only through subcontract. All three prime awards scheduled completion in the next twenty-four months (combined potential value $261 thousand) face recompete or renewal. The vendor's NAICS and PSC footprint spans computer terminal manufacturing, electrical test instrumentation, and motor and generator manufacturing — a narrow product stack aligned with measurement, diagnostic, and generation hardware rather than services or systems integration.
