About INQ LLC

INQ LLC, an SBA 8(a) certified Economically Disadvantaged Women-Owned Small Business (EDWOSB) headquartered in McLean, Virginia, operates as a prime contractor on federal IT modernization, infrastructure transition support, and defense research and development contracts. INQ competes predominantly under set-aside vehicles — three of its six recent awards carry 8(a) Sole Source designations — and holds seats on full-and-open federal vehicles including the Missile Defense Agency's Scalable Homeland Innovative Enterprise Layered Defense (SHIELD) IDIQ and the GSA Federal Supply Schedule.

INQ's recent customer footprint splits narrowly between three agencies. The Transportation Security Administration accounts for 50% of awards (three contracts, $978 thousand combined potential value), with work focused on transition support services and technical consulting for TSA's mandated migration to GSA's Enterprise Infrastructure Solution (EIS) program. The Missile Defense Agency and GSA Federal Acquisition Service each hold one award. Two of the three TSA awards are now closing out — one completed September 28, 2025, another scheduled for completion September 29, 2027 — but the largest near-term recompete cliff is TSA's $529,737 EIS transition support contract expiring September 29, 2027, which alone represents $530 thousand of the $1.5 million combined potential value across INQ's portfolio in the next twenty-four months.

INQ holds a $500,000 ceiling GSA Federal Supply Schedule contract (multiple award, IT Professional Services and Engineering Services under NAICS 541330 and 54151S) running through May 27, 2030, with labor categories spanning 22 roles including Software Engineers, Security Engineers, and Program Managers at hourly rates from $55.87 to $250.61. The vendor also recently secured a full-and-open award on the Missile Defense Agency's SHIELD IDIQ — a multi-award vehicle with a $151 billion ceiling and performance through December 28, 2035 — where INQ received an initial delivery order worth $500 valued at place of performance in Huntsville, Alabama for materials, labor, equipment, and facilities supporting the agency's multi-domain defense research and development. SHIELD work encompasses R&D, prototyping, systems engineering, weapon design, production, test and evaluation, and cybersecurity modernization for advanced defense systems.

INQ's award activity shows acceleration from one award per year in 2023 and 2024 to four awards in 2025. The company operates wholly as a prime contractor — all six awards are prime positions with zero subcontract work in the source portfolio — and carries Asian-Pacific American minority ownership designations. INQ maintains three named subsidiaries: Pexchange LLC, Vanguard Research Inc., and Qigc LLC, all minority-owned women-owned small businesses with similar SBA certifications, which may provide corporate structure for specialized capability delivery or teaming but are not separately detailed in the award record.
