Falconwood

Falconwood Inc., a woman-owned and veteran-owned small business based in Arlington, Virginia, delivers engineering, logistics, cybersecurity, and risk-management services to the Department of the Navy as a prime contractor (72% of recent awards) and as a subcontractor to defense primes, competing full-and-open without set-aside designation across major Navy and defense IDIQs. Falconwood operates as a for-profit Subchapter S corporation and has held active federal contracting status since 2002.

Falconwood's customer concentration is overwhelmingly naval. The Department of the Navy accounts for the largest share of both award count and dollar value, anchored by Naval Information Warfare Systems Command (10 awards, $665.9 million combined potential value) and Naval Sea Systems Command (9 awards, $10.01 billion combined potential value). Five Navy customer sub-organizations collectively represent 72% of recent awards. However, the top-value customer by potential value is the Department of Health and Human Services National Institutes of Health NITAAC Office of Information Technology Acquisition ($20 billion in a single award), which represents the SHIELD vehicle ceiling and reflects the structure of that instrument rather than near-term invoice volume. The combined potential value across all awards stands at $31.04 billion, though only $747.9 million (2% of potential value) has been obligated to date, indicating that most awards are indefinite-delivery vehicles or early-stage delivery orders.

Falconwood's capability footprint centers on engineering services (25 awards) and computer systems design (10 awards), delivered primarily through two Navy-managed IDIQs: Seaport-e (10 task orders, $309.2 million combined potential value) and Seaport Next Generation (9 task orders, $373.8 million combined potential value). Representative prime work includes a $236.1 million cost-plus-fixed-fee delivery order from Naval Information Warfare Systems Command for engineering and logistics support services in support of PEO Digital, awarded December 10, 2021, with ultimate completion December 9, 2026; a $27.1 million delivery order from Naval Supply Systems Command for Fleet Enterprise Support Team services, awarded September 8, 2024, with performance through March 7, 2030; and a $12.3 million firm-fixed-price delivery order from US Fleet Forces Command (Atlantic Fleet) for Risk Management Framework Validators, awarded September 1, 2023, with completion by March 31, 2029. Most recently, Falconwood received two significant IDV awards: an OASIS+ UNRESTRICTED multiple-award IDIQ from GSA's Federal Acquisition Service on August 13, 2026 (no specified ceiling, running through December 5, 2034); and a $151 billion Scalable Homeland Innovative Enterprise Layered Defense (SHIELD) IDIQ from the Missile Defense Agency on December 29, 2025, with completion December 28, 2035, supporting multi-domain defense research, development, and production across air, missile, space, and cyber domains.

On the SCI-reportable prime contracting front (federal service contracts above $150,000), Falconwood invoiced $210.8 million across FY2022–FY2025, with FY2024 showing $54.4 million across 236 FTEs and FY2025 tracking at $58.5 million across 235 FTEs. Government-paid hourly rates on prime contracts ranged from a 10th percentile of $80.59/hr to a median of $108.56/hr and a 90th percentile of $120.78/hr, reflecting a mix of junior engineering labor and senior technical oversight. Across prime SCI-reportable contracts, subcontractors performed 9% of total contractor hours, drawing from a total of 45 named subcontractors, indicating Falconwood builds most of its delivery teams in-house but engages subs selectively for specialized skill areas.

Falconwood subcontracts to major defense integrators on Navy cybersecurity and enterprise IT programs. Named prime contractors include Booz Allen Hamilton (technical support for PEO Program Executive Office engagements including Deputy Chief of Naval Operations information warfare and Program Executive Office MLB, awarded April 2024 through June 2024) and Ironclad Technology Services LLC (IT and compliance labor on Navy financial management systems, CFMS-C, awarded February 2024 with multiple extensions through October 2026 for cybersecurity risk management framework validation). Deloitte & Touche LLP subcontracted Falconwood for Deployable Mission Support System (DMSS) support and portfolio management services in October and November 2025.

Two awards totaling $310 million in combined potential value carry ultimate completion dates within the next twenty-four months, creating a recompete window: the Naval Information Warfare Systems Command PEO Digital engineering and logistics delivery order completes December 9, 2026, and the Naval Air Systems Command LIIS CMDS MAC vehicle runs through June 14, 2031 (though the minimum-guarantee order issued in July 2026 carries only $1 thousand ceiling). The vendor's pipeline shows uneven activity: four awards in 2021, then a one-year gap in 2022, followed by acceleration to ten awards in 2024 and five in 2025, driven primarily by IDV awards and Navy task-order activity. Place of performance spans Arlington, Virginia (headquarters and administrative), Norfolk, Virginia, Huntsville, Alabama, and other Navy installations and customer locations nationwide and overseas as required by individual task orders.
