About Graf Research Corporation
Graf Research Corporation, doing business as Graf Research Corp, is a Blacksburg, Virginia-based small business providing field programmable gate array (FPGA) security, artificial intelligence and machine learning, hardware reverse engineering, and embedded computing research and development exclusively to Department of Defense agencies as a prime contractor (88% of recent awards) under total small business set-asides. The company is a for-profit Subchapter S corporation competing predominantly across SBIR and STTR phases, with recent work spanning fault-injection automation, satellite anomaly classification, RF machine learning explainability, and AI/ML applications for Army and Air Force priorities.
Graf Research's customer concentration is stark. The Department of the Air Force Materiel Command Research Laboratory accounts for 15 awards representing $75.7 million of the combined $84.6 million potential value across all recent awards—79% of award count and 90% of potential value. The Office of the Secretary of Defense, Department of the Army, Defense Threat Reduction Agency, and Defense Microelectronics Activity round out the top five, collectively representing the remaining 8% of dollars. The two rankings align tightly around the Air Force anchor. The company sits on a $49.5 million single-award Indefinite Delivery Vehicle with AFRL (contract FA865020D1879) that has funded 2 task orders valued at $19.8 million, an Information Analysis Center Multiple-Award Contract through 3 task orders, and a Basic Ordering Agreement (FA862021G4035). Representative prime work includes a $1.1 million SBIR Phase II contract with DTRA (awarded March 2, 2026) for automating fault-injection and radiation testing, running through March 2, 2028; a $239,984 SBIR Phase I award from the Office of Naval Research (November 3, 2025) for research and development; a $1.9 million SBIR Phase II contract with the Army (March 18, 2024) for AI/ML research; and a $1.3 million Army SBIR Direct-to-Phase-II contract (November 2, 2023) for digital erasure of sensitive FPGA systems.
Activity has remained steady at two to four awards annually over the past five years; only one award appears in 2026 to date. The company faces minimal recompete exposure, with just two awards (combined potential value $1.3 million) reaching ultimate completion within the next twenty-four months. Graf Research subcontracts to Booz Allen Hamilton on Air Force Research Laboratory microelectronics assurance and naval air warfare center technology protection work and to Sierra Nevada Company on Big Safari services; four sub-awards account for 12% of the total award count. The company's work concentrates in R&D services (24 awards under NAICS 541712 for research and development in physical, engineering, and life sciences, excluding nanotechnology and biotechnology), with PSC codes anchored in DoD basic and applied research.
