Edgesource Corporation

Edgesource Corporation, headquartered in Alexandria, Virginia, is a small business that sells cybersecurity, unmanned aerial systems, software development, and IT engineering services to the Department of Defense, civilian agencies, and intelligence community customers predominantly as a prime contractor (75% of awards) on unrestricted, full-and-open procurements with no characteristic set-aside posture. The vendor operates through parent Edgesource Corporation and two named subsidiaries—Auspex LLC (service-disabled veteran owned) and Newbrook Solutions, Inc.

Edgesource's capability portfolio centers on unmanned systems (detection, tracking, identification, cyber-mitigation, and counter-CUAS work), cybersecurity training and infrastructure support, IT systems engineering and architecture, and research and development. The $76.9 million CISA stakeholder management support services delivery order (FY2021–2025) under OASIS SB represents the vendor's largest single prime award in the source. A $29.97 million definitive labor-hour contract with Naval Air Systems Command (2024–2026) covers cyber-mitigation software development for covered country-manufactured unmanned aerial systems. An Air Force Research Laboratory SBIR Phase II definitive contract valued at $1.76 million (2024–2025) funds real-time UAS detect, track, and identify capabilities. Recent high-velocity tactical work includes a $4.62 million CISA cybersecurity training support delivery order (FY2025–2026), a $515,611 DHS Immigration and Customs Enforcement purchase order for small unmanned aircraft systems to enhance personnel safety during investigations (FY2025), and a $250,000 Air Combat Command purchase order for a Version 3 Windtalker system with one year of support at Nellis Air Force Base (FY2025). The vendor also delivers Windtalker systems and related support through multiple primes including Atlantic Diving Supply, Black River Systems, and The Mil Corporation.

Edgesource holds a $151 billion IDIQ with the Missile Defense Agency under the SHIELD (Scalable Homeland Innovative Enterprise Layered Defense) program, awarded December 2025 with performance through December 2035—a 10-year enterprise vehicle spanning research and development, prototyping, systems engineering, weapon design, production, test and evaluation, and modernization across multiple security classification levels and functional domains. The vendor also holds a $4 billion Navy SeaPort-NXG IDIQ (through January 2029), two OASIS+ IDIQs (one total small business set-aside, one unrestricted, each with no specified ceiling and performance through December 2029), and a newly awarded Basic Ordering Agreement with Army Contracting Command-Redstone Arsenal (effective January 2026 through January 2031) for drones and drone components in support of Executive Order 14307-Unleashing American Drone Dominance. The vendor places task orders under the GSA Multiple Award Schedule (18 task orders, $102.6 million combined potential value), Federal Supply Schedule GS35F0045M (11 task orders, $8.2 million), Alliant II (10 task orders), and an Army-wide IDIQs (9 task orders, $26.2 million).

Customer concentration is extreme. By potential value, the Army Materiel Command Army Contracting Command Aberdeen Proving Ground anchors the footprint with $37.4 billion combined potential value across two awards—the SHIELD IDIQ and an unnamed related vehicle. Naval Sea Systems Command contributes $7.96 billion across four awards. The Army Intelligence and Security Command, State Department Bureau of Administration, and CISA round out the top five, accounting for 100% of combined potential value across their respective awards. By award count, however, concentration is lower: the State Department Foreign Service Institute (14 awards, $16.8 million), State Bureau of Information Resource Management (11 awards), Air Force Air Mobility Command (10 awards, $2 million), Army Headquarters Office of the Chief of Staff (8 awards, $32 million), and Office of the Secretary of Defense (8 awards, $20.8 million) represent 45% of all awards by count but anchor the largest single-award dollars through Army and CISA vehicles.

Activity has accelerated sharply. The vendor received two awards in 2022, one in 2023, nine in 2024, and nineteen in 2025, with two additional awards recorded in 2026. Combined potential value across all 113 awards (prime and sub) stands at $45.93 billion, though only $283.4 million has been obligated to date—less than one percent of potential value, reflecting the heavy weight of IDIQ ceilings rather than firm task order funding. Only one award faces ultimate completion within the next twenty-four months (combined potential value $4.6 million), eliminating near-term recompete exposure.

On SCI-reportable federal service contracts above the $150,000 threshold, Edgesource invoiced $69.7 million across prime records in FY2022–2024: $13.3 million in FY2022 (88.7 FTEs), $26 million in FY2023 (153 FTEs), and $30.4 million in FY2024 (112 FTEs). Government-paid hourly rates on prime contracts ranged from $70.17/hr at the tenth percentile to a median of $114.00/hr and $238.40/hr at the ninety-ninth percentile. Edgesource maintains 417 active GSA Schedule labor categories spanning $65.82/hr (Programmer I, bachelor's degree) through $489.11/hr (Cloud SME II, bachelor's degree plus ten years of experience); no roles carry security-clearance requirements. Across SCI-reportable prime contracts, subcontractor hours account for an average of 28% of total delivery, with 10 named subcontractors engaged. The vendor operates as a subcontractor to Booz Allen Hamilton (C-SUAS, advanced evaluation and readiness work), Leidos (counter-SUAS engineering and integration), Science Applications International Corporation (Department of State IT infrastructure), CACI Federal (labor-hour O&M), Peraton (military intelligence IT support), and Atlantic Diving Supply (Windtalker delivery), among others.

Edgesource's top NAICS categories in the award portfolio are Other Computer Related Services (31 awards), Engineering Services (22 awards), Computer Systems Design Services (14 awards), Research and Development in Physical, Engineering, and Life Sciences (12 awards), and Other Scientific and Technical Consulting Services (11 awards). Top PSC categories are Support-Professional (24 awards), R&D Defense Other (10 awards), Miscellaneous Items (8 awards), IT and Telecommunications (7 awards), and Unmanned Aircraft (3 awards). The vendor registered in SAM.gov as a federal contractor in 2003 and competes exclusively on full-and-open procurements across defense and civilian customer sets with no set-aside certifications other than the service-disabled veteran designation carried by subsidiary Auspex.
