GBS Solutions Corp

GBS Solutions Corp, doing business as GBS, is a minority-owned, Asian-Pacific American small disadvantaged business and SBA 8(a) Program Participant headquartered in Kaysville, Utah that delivers IT professional services, enterprise systems support, AI risk management framework development, and SharePoint application engineering to federal civilian agencies as a prime contractor (87% of recent awards) and subordinate to larger primes. GBS is organized as a for-profit Subchapter S corporation with one named subsidiary, Dakota Consulting Incorporated, and competes predominantly under 8(a) set-asides (both sole-source and competitive) on the 8(a) STARS III GWAC, supplemented by full-and-open competition on single-award IDIQs, agency-wide vehicles, and the GSA Multiple Award Schedule.

GBS's customer footprint is heavily concentrated at the National Institute of Standards and Technology, which accounts for 22 awards totaling $31.1 million in combined potential value and anchors the vendor's work in AI risk management framework standards development, governance structures, catalog support, generative AI profiling, and enterprise systems sustainment. The top five customer agencies capture 71% of the award count but only a fraction of the dollar value; the concentration by potential value is dominated by two massive platform vehicles: the GSA Federal Acquisition Service seat on the Scalable Homeland Innovative Enterprise Layered Defense (SHIELD) multiple-award IDIQ valued at $151 billion (awarded December 29, 2025) and the Naval Sea Systems Command Seaport-NXG vehicle valued at $4 billion (awarded January 2, 2025). These two IDIQs alone represent $155 billion in combined potential value, though GBS has issued only one minimum-guarantee delivery order ($500) against SHIELD and one $500 minimum-guarantee order against Seaport-NXG to date, signaling these are newly awarded vehicles not yet generating substantial task-order flow. NIST's $31.1 million combined potential value across 22 awards represents the bulk of near-term revenue and recompete exposure; NSF's Division of Information and Intelligent Systems (3 awards, $7.7 million) and the Department of the Interior's Chief Information Officer and Bureau of Reclamation (4 awards, $7.6 million) round out the active set.

GBS's primary vehicle footprint centers on the 8(a) STARS III GWAC, where it holds 19 task orders valued at $39.3 million. Recent STARS III delivery orders include a $7.255 million Competitive 8(a) order from NIST for AI standards development organization and risk management framework support (September 30, 2026, through September 30, 2030), a $4.84 million order for SharePoint developer support services at NIST (April 11, 2023, through April 10, 2028), a $4.502 million 8(a) Sole Source order from the Office of the Chief Information Officer for email and Office 365 administrative support (November 1, 2023, through October 31, 2028), a $3.974 million Competitive 8(a) order from NIST for project and program support (June 16, 2023, through June 15, 2027), and a $3.391 million order from NIST for computing facilities operation support (April 1, 2025, through March 31, 2028). GBS also holds a single-award NSF IDC for broad-based technology and web project support ($4.492 million, awarded September 1, 2025) and a single-award Army FISA Services IDC for Force Integration Support Analysis work ($722 thousand, awarded January 19, 2025, through July 18, 2028). On the GSA Multiple Award Schedule, GBS holds a Federal Supply Schedule contract with a $500,000 ceiling (awarded September 11, 2023, through September 10, 2028) spanning 73 labor categories ranging from IT Customer Support Analyst at roughly $60/hr through AI and Machine Learning Business Intelligence specialists at $287.79/hr, with most roles requiring bachelor's or associate degrees and no security clearance requirements.

Award activity accelerated sharply in FY2025 (20 awards) after a relatively flat FY2022–2024 run (5, 7, and 5 awards respectively). Twelve awards (combined potential value $25.7 million) face ultimate completion in the next twenty-four months and represent recompete exposure. Service Contract Inventory reporting for FY2025 shows $6.1 million invoiced across 21.9 FTEs, with GBS self-performing all labor and reporting zero subcontractor hours on SCI-reportable prime contracts — a signal that GBS builds and staffs its own delivery teams rather than relying on subs. In its limited subcontractor role, GBS supports Fedwriters, Inc., on six NIST task orders for wireless channel analysis, building standards roadmap development, network co-simulation, refrigerant-air flame kinetics modeling, polymer degradation analysis, and digital twins manufacturing support (all awarded or performed between August and September 2025).

GBS's capability portfolio is anchored in IT staffing, AI governance and risk management framework development (particularly for NIST's global standards initiatives), enterprise systems support including SharePoint administration and development, computing facilities and IT service desk operations, mobile device administration, and strategic communications. Recent representative work includes the $2.506 million NIST definitive contract for AI RMF standards and crosswalk analysis (September 29, 2025, through September 28, 2028), the $1.635 million NSF delivery order for broad-based technology and web project support (September 22, 2026, through September 21, 2027, time-and-materials), the $868 thousand Ogden Air Logistics Complex contract for collection, storage, disassembly, repair, inspection, and delivery of respirators (January 1, 2025, through June 30, 2030, 8(a) Sole Source), and the $205 thousand NIST order for AI RMF generative AI profile support (September 30, 2024, through September 29, 2025). NIST work dominates the portfolio and carries significant AI risk management and standards-development framing; civilian-agency technical support and facilities operations round out the profile.
