About Esc, Inc.
Esc, Inc., doing business as E-Systems Consultants, is an SBA-certified women-owned small business providing IT infrastructure, telecommunications, personnel security, investigative support, and multi-domain defense engineering services to federal agencies across civilian, military, and defense intelligence portfolios as a prime contractor (98% of recent awards). Based in Arlington, Virginia, the vendor is a minority-owned, self-certified small disadvantaged business structured as a Subchapter S corporation and a DOT-certified Disadvantaged Business Enterprise, with core capabilities spanning IT hardware provisioning, systems integration, background investigation services, and advanced defense systems engineering.
The vendor's customer concentration is heavily weighted toward two massive IDV awards that anchor the financial footprint. The Department of Health and Human Services National Institutes of Health drives nearly $20 billion of the vendor's combined potential value through a single Indefinite Delivery Contract under the NITAAC Office of Information Technology Acquisition; that single award represents 99% of all potential value across the portfolio. Below that, the Department of the Army (Headquarters Office of the Chief of Staff and National Guard Readiness Center combined) accounts for $63.3 million across 15 awards, followed by the Department of Homeland Security US Coast Guard at $123 million across three awards, and NIH's Office of the Director at $30.6 million across eleven awards. The top five customer organizations account for all potential value, but the top customers by award count diverge sharply from the top customers by dollars — NIH's Office of the Director places eleven awards worth $30.6 million while the NITAAC contract is a single award worth $20 billion, signaling both a high-volume, small-order customer and a single transformative contract that dominates capacity planning.
Esc holds positions on five active parent vehicles. The HHSN263201000046I Indefinite Delivery Contract (10 task orders, $13 million) supports NIH work; the Federal Supply Schedule GS35F5803H (8 task orders, $16.9 million) supports IT and telecommunications procurement; the Army Investigative Support Services vehicle (6 task orders, $24 million) drives personnel security and background investigation work; the DOC NOAA contract DOCDG133008CQ0013 (3 task orders, $3.4 million) supports maritime IT services; and the National Guard Family Lifecycle Services vehicle (3 task orders, $6.9 million) supports administrative and personnel support. Most recently, in December 2025, Esc received a multi-billion-dollar Indefinite Delivery Indefinite Quantity contract from the Missile Defense Agency for the Scalable Homeland Innovative Enterprise Layered Defense (SHIELD) program, carrying a ceiling of $151 billion and covering research and development, prototyping, systems engineering, weapon design, production, test and evaluation, and cybersecurity across air, missile, space, cyber, and hybrid threat domains through December 2035. In September 2024, Esc was awarded a position on the GSA OASIS+ Women-Owned Small Business multiple-award IDIQ for IT hardware, workstations, servers, and complex technology implementations, running through September 2029.
The vendor's recent award activity is sparse — two awards in 2025, one in 2024 — reflecting the portfolio's concentration on large, long-duration vehicles rather than ongoing task-order volume. The category breakdown shows primary strength in other computer-related services (16 awards), investigation and personal background check services (11 awards), and computing infrastructure and data processing (8 awards), with supporting capability in administrative management consulting and engineering services. GSA Schedule labor rates span $43.54 to $167.27 per hour across eighteen categories ranging from Personnel Security Assistant (associate-level, 3 years' experience) through Subject Matter Expert (bachelor's-level, 10 years' experience), with no security-cleared positions offered. Over its documented history, Esc has served eighteen distinct federal agencies as a prime contractor, with 62 total awards carrying $20.28 billion in combined potential value but only $82.8 million obligated to date, indicating that the vast majority of this value sits in unexercised ceiling or initial IDV awards awaiting task orders.
