About the company

Izum Inc., a Potomac, Maryland-based SBA 8(a) certified small disadvantaged business, provides advanced technical and engineering services for quantum networking, 5G/6G core networks, post-quantum cryptography standards development, and emerging telecommunications infrastructure as a prime contractor exclusively to the National Institute of Standards and Technology. Izum operates under SBA 8(a) Program Participant and Self Certified Small Disadvantaged Business designations, with 8(a) certification valid through May 11, 2033. Izum is minority-owned (Asian-Pacific American) and competes across set-aside and full-and-open categories on the same technical footprint.

Izum's federal work concentrates on NIST research and development across three capability domains. First, quantum networking and metrology: multiple awards for quantum networks entanglement layer research (including development of a Quantum Network Optimizer and entanglement distribution protocols), quantum network modeling and simulation support, quantum networking metrology research support, and real-time quantum communication support services using field-programmable gate array technology, with individual contract values ranging from $127,688 to $308,736. Second, 5G/6G core network development and artificial intelligence integration: contracts for support services on 5G/6G core networks projects (including testbed development and machine learning solutions), 6G sub-terahertz small cell networks design and development support, and AI-assisted wireless communication networks for wide-area monitoring, ceiling values $132,000 to $437,472. Third, post-quantum cryptography and standards: a $234,984 purchase order for project support and revision of NIST Special Publication 800-22 (PQC) standards development, and a $155,150 award for Vehicle-to-Everything (V2X) performance measurement support services.

Customer concentration is extreme: NIST accounts for 38 awards (97% of total volume) and $5.6 million of $6.1 million in combined potential value, with the General Services Administration Federal Acquisition Service holding a single $500,000 Federal Supply Schedule contract. Izum holds a GSA Multiple Award Schedule position (ceiling $500,000, valid through January 22, 2030) covering Information Technology Professional Services and Technical Consulting Services under Special Item Numbers 54151S and 541690, with nine escalating labor categories from Technician through Principal Engineer. Four delivery orders have been placed against the GSA Schedule from NIST for a combined $599,000. All other awards are direct NIST purchase orders structured as firm fixed-price contracts with 12-month base periods and option periods where applicable.

Activity trajectory remains flat across the recent five-year window: four awards in 2022, six in 2023, six in 2024, six in 2025, and four through October 2026. Six awards (combined potential value $1.1 million) reach ultimate completion within the next twenty-four months and face recompete risk. Izum operates exclusively as a prime contractor with no subcontract footprint. The NAICS distribution reflects technical service diversity: Other Scientific and Technical Consulting Services (16 awards), Computer Systems Design Services (10 awards), and Other Computer Related Services (10 awards), with PSC concentration in Support Management-Other (10 awards) and General Science and Technology R&D Services (7 awards). Place of performance for nearly all work occurs at NIST's Gaithersburg, Maryland facility, with one Potomac-based award for high-performance building systems research support.
