I.S. Management Stratagies, LTD.

I.S. Management Stratagies, LTD., a Bayside, Wisconsin–based small business, provides IBM mainframe software consulting and license optimization services to the federal government as a prime contractor under a single-award Indefinite Delivery Contract with the Social Security Administration, competing without set-aside designation on full-and-open delivery orders and competing under total small business set-aside on its parent IDC.

The vendor's federal footprint is concentrated and stable. The Social Security Administration accounts for 27 of 42 awards (86% coverage by count, $4.9 million combined potential value), with the Office of Personnel Management representing the remaining 9 awards ($108 thousand combined potential value). Combined potential value across all awards stands at $5.2 million, with $3.5 million obligated (68% utilization). The vendor has held its primary vehicle—a single-award IDC (28321321D00060016) valued at $1.47 million and running through November 2026—since August 2021. Task orders under this IDC focus on IBM mainframe software pricing model assessments, license compliance solutions, and software licensing optimization advisory services. Recent representative work includes a $158.2 thousand delivery order awarded May 2025 for IBM software pricing model assessments and support (performance through May 2026), a $144.9 thousand delivery order awarded May 2024 (ultimate completion May 2025), and a $155.1 thousand delivery order awarded May 2023 (ultimate completion May 2024). Recurring work also includes annual renewal purchase orders for the vendor's proprietary I/S Management Strategies LCS (License Compliance Solution) subscription service, typically valued at $16.6 thousand to $20 thousand per year. All performance occurs on-site in Baltimore, Maryland, supporting SSA's technology infrastructure and software licensing initiatives.

Activity has remained flat across the last five years at approximately two awards annually (2022–2026). One award with combined potential value of $88 thousand reaches ultimate completion within the next twenty-four months, representing minimal recompete exposure. The vendor operates exclusively as a prime contractor with no subcontract footprint and no parent contract vehicles beyond its SSA IDC. NAICS concentration aligns with mainframe and software services: Software Publishers (15 awards), Custom Computer Programming Services (12 awards), and Other Computer Related Services (12 awards). Primary Service Code categories are Information Technology Software (19 awards) and IT and Telecommunications support services (15 awards combined).
