About Katalyst Space Technologies, LLC
Katalyst Space Technologies, LLC, a small disadvantaged business based in Flagstaff, Arizona, develops advanced perception and space domain awareness technologies for the federal government as a prime contractor (93% of recent awards), operating almost entirely under full-and-open and Total Small Business set-aside designations with no 8(a) certification. The company's work centers on responsive space systems, cislunar observation capabilities, and space defense technologies delivered to Air Force Research Laboratory, NASA, and the Missile Defense Agency.
Katalyst's recent prime footprint spans 14 awards valued at $38.3 million, concentrated heavily in SBIR and STTR phases across space-domain and defense R&D. The Air Force Research Laboratory drives volume — 10 awards accounting for $8.3 million combined potential value — across multiple technology development initiatives including the Lightweight Modular Perception Enhancement (LIMPET) system, the Interoperable Cislunar Observation Network (ICON), and the SHIELD-1 MISSION for orbital staging of responsive space domain awareness assets. Representative Air Force work includes a $1.9 million SBIR Phase II contract (awarded May 2025, completing March 2027) for advanced perception and awareness technologies supporting asset relocation from contested areas, a $1.8 million SBIR Phase II contract (June 2025, completing December 2026) for automated assessment of uncrewed cargo transfer candidates, and a $1.8 million STTR Phase II purchase order (February 2024, completing November 2025) for ICON cislunar observation development. NASA's Shared Services Center contributes the second-largest dollar concentration — 2 awards totaling $29.9 million — led by a $29.8 million Phase III SBIR contract (awarded September 2025, completing September 2026) for the "Swift Salvo" project under contract 80NSSC25C0510, representing progression through NASA's SBIR commercialization pathway. The Missile Defense Agency awards remain nascent: on December 29, 2025, Katalyst was awarded a multiple-award IDIQ contract under the Scalable Homeland Innovative Enterprise Layered Defense (SHIELD) program with a ten-year ceiling through December 2035 and an initial task order valued at $500.
Activity has accelerated — one award in 2021 to six in 2025 — with four awards (combined potential value $34.7 million) facing ultimate completion within the next twenty-four months and therefore triggering recompete. Work is performed primarily at Katalyst's Flagstaff headquarters with one Air Force propellant-transfer contract (August 2024 award, $1.2 million) performed in Broomfield, Colorado. The vendor holds one federal sub-award: an October 2024 federal grant sub-award on an ARPA job training assistance program. Across its prime work, Katalyst competes almost exclusively under Total Small Business set-asides and full-and-open competitions in the R&D services category (NAICS 541714 — Research and Development in the Physical, Engineering, and Life Sciences), with no recurring parent vehicle presence outside the nascent SHIELD IDIQ.
