Gray Link Technologies LLC

Gray Link Technologies LLC, a for-profit sole proprietorship based in Auburn, Alabama, provides network engineering, systems administration, and IT infrastructure services to Department of Defense and federal civilian agencies as both a prime contractor on defense-focused IDIQs (45% of recent awards) and as a subcontractor to larger systems integrators (55%). The vendor holds no SBA set-aside designations and competes full-and-open across defense and civilian IT procurements.

Gray Link's prime footprint centers on two major vehicle awards anchoring the vast majority of potential value. The vendor holds a $151 billion ceiling Scalable Homeland Innovative Enterprise Layered Defense (SHIELD) multiple-award IDIQ with the Missile Defense Agency, awarded December 29, 2025, with performance extending through December 28, 2035. This full-and-open vehicle supports multi-domain defense system development, research and development, prototyping, systems engineering, and cybersecurity modernization across classified and unclassified security domains. Gray Link also holds a $4 billion ceiling Seaport Next Generation (Seaport-NXG) multiple-award IDIQ with Naval Sea Systems Command, awarded January 2, 2025, with ultimate completion January 1, 2029, supporting IT labor services, network and systems administration, and engineering across Navy SYSCOMs including NAVAIR, NAVWAR, NAVFAC, NAVSUP, and the Office of Naval Research. A third prime vehicle is a GSA Federal Supply Schedule contract (July 14, 2022, through July 13, 2027, ceiling $475,000) offering 19 labor categories spanning network administrators, systems engineers, and security engineers at entry through senior levels, with hourly rates ranging from $66.50 to $186.86 and security clearance requirements across the portfolio. Recent prime awards include a $500 SHIELD initial order delivery order from MDA (December 29, 2025) and a $500 minimum-guarantee task order under Seaport-NXG from Naval Sea Systems Command (March 6, 2025).

Customer concentration sits with the Department of the Navy. Naval Sea Systems Command accounts for the overwhelming majority of potential value (two awards, $4 billion combined), while the Missile Defense Agency, the Department of the Air Force Materiel Command Electronic Systems Center, and the GSA Federal Acquisition Service complete the top tier. The Air Force shows secondary concentration across two awards tied to network operations, electronic systems, and intranet control infrastructure.

As a subcontractor, Gray Link delivers IT infrastructure and network engineering support to General Dynamics Information Technology (Air Force Civil Engineer Control Systems Cybersecurity Initiative work), HII Mission Technologies Corp (Air Force Intranet Control Lab support and research and development), Abacus Technology Corporation (Air Force Intranet Control III support and base communications and IT services), and World Wide Technology LLC (Cisco switch procurement and integrated management suite enhancement for Air Force enterprise systems). SCI-reported federal services activity is minimal at roughly 1.0 FTEs in FY2024 across five sub-award records, reflecting a limited visibility subset of the vendor's actual work; the vast majority of Gray Link's federal activity sits on the prime IDIQs and flows through larger integration partners.

Activity accelerated sharply in 2025, moving from one award in 2022 and three in 2024 to six in 2025, driven by the two major IDIQ awards late in the fiscal year. Combined obligated dollars across all awards stand at $6.7 million against $4 billion in potential value, indicating that large ceiling contracts are in early task-order execution. The Seaport-NXG vehicle reaches ultimate completion January 1, 2029, representing the vendor's nearest recompete exposure.
