About the company
Hylio Inc., a minority-owned, self-certified small disadvantaged business based in Richmond, Texas, manufactures and sells unmanned aircraft systems (UAS), agricultural spray drones, and related spare parts and support services to federal agencies as a prime contractor. The company operates entirely on full-and-open and small-business set-aside contracts; it does not hold seats on government-wide vehicles or IDIQs.
Hylio's federal customer base is highly concentrated. The Department of State Bureau of International Narcotics Law Enforcement accounts for three awards and $8.5 million in combined potential value (99% of dollars), while the Department of Agriculture Agricultural Research Service accounts for two awards and $58 thousand (100% of all awards and dollars combined). Work spans agricultural spray drones with multispectral camera sensors, UAS systems with spare parts and field support, and drone spray program components. Representative work includes an $8.3 million firm fixed price definitive contract awarded by INL on August 7, 2026, for UAS systems, spare parts, and support with place of performance in Colombia and an ultimate completion date of August 6, 2027; a $208.9 thousand purchase order from INL on June 23, 2022, for spray drones and spare parts for Bogotá operations; and a $25.3 thousand purchase order under Total Small Business set-aside from the Department of Agriculture on September 15, 2022, for an agricultural spray drone with multispectral camera sensor.
Recent activity shows sporadic rather than sustained growth — one award in 2021, two in 2022, none in 2023 or 2024, and one in both 2025 and 2026. The $8.3 million INL definitive contract carrying an August 2027 completion date represents the single largest recompete opportunity in the next twenty-four months. The company has obligated $3.1 million (36% of combined potential value) to date across all five awards. Hylio operates exclusively as a prime contractor with no documented subcontract engagements in the source data.
