Koda Technologies Inc.

Koda Technologies Inc., a women-owned small business based in Huntsville, Alabama, operates as both a prime contractor and subcontractor to defense and federal agencies, with work split 16% prime (17 awards) and 84% sub (87 awards), competing predominantly under set-aside vehicles and holding SBA certifications as an Economically Disadvantaged Women-Owned Small Business (EDWOSB) and Women-Owned Small Business (WOSB). The firm delivers systems engineering, integration, test and evaluation, and research and development services focused on missile defense, directed energy, space situation awareness, aviation platforms, and tactical data links.

Koda's prime portfolio centers on missile defense and space domain work. The company holds a $1.796 million firm-fixed-price definitive contract with Air Force Research Laboratory awarded April 13, 2026, for an accelerated satellite situational awareness platform (ultimate completion April 14, 2028), set aside as total small business. It holds a $4.685 million Cost Plus Fixed Fee contract with Missile Defense Agency effective through September 30, 2026, under 8(a) Sole Source, covering engineering technical support, survivability and radiation effects engineering, and program acquisition support for Ground-Based Midcourse Defense systems at Huntsville. Koda also delivered a $179,872 SBIR Phase I contract with Air Force Research Laboratory for Advanced Space Situation Awareness Processing (AS2AP) and a $149,874 SBIR Phase I contract with Missile Defense Agency for Very Efficient Nozzle Materials (VENOM), both completed or nearing completion in 2024–2025. Most significantly, Koda was awarded a seat on the December 29, 2025, Scalable Homeland Innovative Enterprise Layered Defense (SHIELD) Multiple Award IDIQ with a $151 billion ceiling running through December 28, 2035, alongside awards under GSA's OASIS+ Women-Owned Small Business, OASIS+ 8(a), OASIS+ Total Small Business, and OASIS+ Unrestricted IDIQs—each carrying placeholder ceilings—and a $46 billion Eglin Wide Agile Acquisition Contract (EWAAC) vehicle from Air Force Lifecycle Management Center awarded March 13, 2025. These vehicle positions represent significant pipeline access across federal agencies, though task-order volume remains early-stage.

Customer concentration is heavily Army-weighted. The top five customers by award count (72% of awards) consist of Department of the Army Acquisition Support Center divisions: PEO Missiles and Space (23 awards), general Department of Army (21 awards), and PEO Aviation (19 awards), followed by NASA Marshall Space Flight Center (6 awards) and Department of Army PEO Simulation, Training and Instrumentation (6 awards). By potential value, the rankings diverge sharply: Air Force Lifecycle Management Center at Eglin dominates at $46 billion (anchored by the EWAAC vehicle award), followed by Missile Defense Agency ($9.3 million across 5 awards), GSA Federal Acquisition Service ($4.7 million across 5 awards), Defense Information Systems Agency ($2.3 million across 2 awards), and Air Force Research Laboratory ($2 million across 2 awards).

Koda operates predominantly as a subcontractor, delivering engineering and technical services under large defense primes. Torch Technologies Inc. is the dominant parent contractor, accounting for the majority of Koda's sub awards, with task orders spanning Future Vertical Lift (FLRAA) program management, Aviation and Missile Center hardware-in-the-loop simulation and systems engineering, and Aviation Mission Systems Architecture support. Koda also subs to Lockheed Martin on Mars Ascent Vehicle guidance, navigation, and control engineering; Peraton Technology Services on electronic warfare survivability engineering and technical assistance; Science Applications International Corporation on Army software development lifecycle engineering; Parsons Government Services on missile defense systems engineering; Radiance Technologies on Army range technical support; BAE Systems on tactical data link work; Intuitive Research and Technology on strike systems engineering; and Reliance Test & Technology on Atlantic range testing services. The sub footprint reflects Koda's role as a specialized engineering labor provider to large system integrators and program management offices.

On GSA Schedule, Koda carries 59 active labor categories spanning technician through subject matter expert levels, with hourly rates from $58.89 to $367.24 per hour. The spectrum includes technicians at entry level ($58.89/hr), engineering specialists ranging from $102.91/hr (two years' experience) through $166.89/hr (twelve years' experience), IT engineering specialists and senior technical management roles in the $195–$229/hr range, and subject-matter experts at $367.24/hr. No security-cleared labor categories are offered; education requirements span high school through bachelor's degrees.

Recent activity shows explosive growth trajectory. Awards per year ramped from 1 in 2022 to 8 in 2023, 51 in 2024, and 39 in 2025, with the most recent award in April 2026. However, the combined potential value of $46.02 billion is almost entirely placeholder-ceiling or speculative: the EWAAC and SHIELD vehicles carry placeholder or theoretical ceilings, and actual obligated dollars across the 104 awards total only $93.3 million (0.2% of potential value). Only 2 awards with a combined potential value of $6.5 million reach ultimate completion inside the next twenty-four months, signaling minimal near-term recompete exposure but also indicating that most Koda vehicles are newly awarded and performance remains nascent. Service Contract Inventory data shows modest scale: SCI recorded 11 sub contracts above the $150,000 threshold with 29.5 FTEs in FY2024 and 19 FTEs in FY2022, confirming Koda operates as a lean engineering services provider routing labor through larger primes rather than as a standalone operations contractor.
