About Makwa Global Security Solutions, LLC
Makwa Global Security Solutions, LLC, a tribally owned, minority-owned, SBA 8(a)-certified small business based in McLean, Virginia, operates as a prime contractor (100% of recent awards) delivering international law enforcement advisory services, overseas staffing support, and training design to the Department of State and the Department of the Air Force, competing across both Competitive 8(a) and 8(a) Sole Source set-asides.
The vendor's customer concentration is dominated by the Department of State, which accounts for 40 of 41 recent prime awards (100% coverage). The Department of State Bureau of Diplomatic Security anchors the portfolio by potential value—three awards totaling $213.2 million—while the Department of State Office of Acquisition Management drives volume with 27 awards ($30.5 million combined potential value) under the Criminal Justice Expertise Program BPA. The Department of the Air Force contributes one $25.9 million Competitive 8(a) definitive contract (Agile SSD and agile engineering support, awarded September 29, 2023, with ultimate completion January 28, 2027, place of performance Tampa, Florida). The Department of State Bureau of International Narcotics Law Enforcement rounds the portfolio with 10 smaller awards ($1.6 million combined potential value).
Makwa's capability portfolio centers on international criminal justice advisory services, law enforcement development training, and overseas staffing. Representative work includes a $3.04 million Competitive 8(a) BPA call for training, instructional design, and support services to the INL Knowledge Management Office in Minneapolis (September 30, 2024–March 30, 2026); a $365,726 Competitive 8(a) legal advisory call for the U.S. Embassy Abuja, Nigeria (April 15, 2026–January 15, 2027); a $153,790 Competitive 8(a) regional corrections training order for Rabat, Morocco (September 1, 2025–May 1, 2026); and a $2.54 million Competitive 8(a) BPA call for women-in-leadership training at the U.S. Embassy Hanoi, Vietnam (June 14, 2024–October 30, 2024). The vendor also holds a $100.3 million 8(a) Sole Source indefinite delivery contract with the Bureau of Diplomatic Security for overseas staffing services (awarded September 30, 2022, through September 29, 2026), which provides security personnel deployment, training advisory services, and program management to U.S. diplomatic facilities worldwide, with performance centered in Vienna, Virginia. Work spans international locations including Haiti, Morocco, Lebanon, Ukraine, Georgia, Armenia, Bosnia and Herzegovina, Nigeria, Mauritania, Vietnam, and Sri Lanka, alongside domestic performance in Washington, D.C. and Minneapolis.
Makwa operates as the prime under two parent vehicles: a $6.5 million Criminal Justice Expertise Program Blanket Purchase Agreement (single-award BPA, September 30, 2022–September 29, 2026, with 35 task orders generating $9.7 million in combined potential value) and the $100.3 million Indefinite Delivery Contract (single-award IDC, September 30, 2022–September 29, 2026, one task order).
Activity volume peaked in 2023 (19 awards) and has declined year-over-year: 2024 brought 8 awards, 2025 brought 4 awards, and 2026 has delivered 3 awards to date. Seven awards (combined potential value $127.6 million) face ultimate completion inside the next twenty-four months and therefore present recompete exposure, with the $100.3 million Diplomatic Security indefinite delivery contract extending through September 29, 2026 as a primary cliff event.
Across SCI-reportable federal service contracts (a $35.6 million subset invoiced in fiscal 2023 and fiscal 2024), Makwa's FTE trajectory held flat at approximately 40–41 full-time equivalents in fiscal 2023 ($15.2 million invoiced, 44.0 FTEs) and fiscal 2024 ($20.4 million invoiced, 44.6 FTEs), signaling stable staffing with modest revenue growth. Derived government-paid hourly rates on these prime contracts ran a median of $156.57 per hour, with the 90th percentile at $258.94 per hour. The vendor self-performed the majority of work on SCI-reportable contracts, with an average subcontractor-hours share of 16% across prime records and nine named subcontractors reported. The vendor's SCI footprint is smaller than its overall federal contract portfolio, reflecting the exclusion of product contracts, classified work, and sub-million-dollar awards from SCI reporting; the Bureau of Diplomatic Security staffing indefinite delivery contract, while substantial, does not appear as a reportable SCI line item, suggesting it falls outside the $150,000-per-fiscal-year-per-contract reporting threshold or operates as a reimbursable staffing pass-through arrangement.
Makwa Global Security Solutions operates as a subsidiary of Makwa Global, LLC, a tribally and minority-owned parent firm also based in McLean, Virginia. The parent vendor carries identical SBA designations (tribally owned, minority-owned, small disadvantaged business, Native American owned, American Indian owned) and has held federal contract prime awards; the parent and subsidiary structure suggests shared ownership and operational oversight while Makwa Global Security Solutions, LLC functions as the active prime contracting entity for the portfolio.
