About the company
Darkflite Inc., a small business based in Brighton, Michigan, develops next-generation medical emergency response systems and prehospital blood transfusion technologies for the federal government as a prime contractor under total small business set-asides. The company operates exclusively as a prime across three awards totaling $2.7 million, with all potential value obligated.
Darkflite's footprint consists entirely of research and development work under two customer agencies. The Department of Transportation's Immediate Office of the Secretary has funded two awards worth $1.4 million combined potential value: a $185 thousand SBIR Phase I contract awarded September 17, 2024, for prehospital blood transfusion systems improvement research with a completion date of March 17, 2025, and a $1.25 million Phase II SBIR continuation awarded May 27, 2026, for the same topic (completion September 26, 2027). The Department of the Air Force Materiel Command's Air Force Research Laboratory awarded a $1.25 million purchase order on August 29, 2025, for development of a next-generation drone designed to support rapid medical emergency response in military frontline environments, with completion scheduled for May 31, 2027. All work is performed at Darkflite's facility in Brighton, Michigan. The vendor's NAICS profile aligns with research and development in physical, engineering, and life sciences, with transportation R&D services representing two of three awards and national defense R&D services the third.
Two of Darkflite's three awards face ultimate completion inside the next twenty-four months (combined potential value $2.5 million), creating recompete exposure on both the DOT prehospital transfusion work and the Air Force medical drone program. The vendor maintains no subcontract footprint and does not sit on any parent contract vehicles, IDIQs, or GWACs in the source data. Activity is nascent — one award per year across 2024, 2025, and 2026 — with the vendor's recent positioning concentrated in medical technology innovation for emergency response and tactical casualty care applications.
